About Farley Gardens
We are Farley Gardens, a residential care home in Bracknell. We provide a home for older people and younger adults, including those living with dementia, and we also take respite stays. Residential care means helping with the parts of daily life that have become hard work and leaving everything else in the hands of the person. Washing and dressing, meals, medication, getting about safely, and the ordinary company that makes a day worth having. For health needs beyond our registration we work alongside district nurses and GPs rather than stretching to cover them ourselves. Dementia takes up much of our day. We have found that correcting somebody's account of things achieves nothing, and that knowing who a person has been tells us far more than any list of symptoms. Someone who worked for decades to a particular rhythm often still carries it, and a routine built around that goes better than one imposed on top. Respite guests get the same assessment and the same welcome as anyone living here permanently. We are registered with the Care Quality Commission and do not currently hold an overall rating.
