About Woodbury Short Stay
Woodbury Short Stay in Bury provides short term residential care for older people and younger adults, including those living with dementia, adults with a learning disability, autistic adults, people managing mental health conditions, people with a physical disability and people with sight or hearing loss. Short stays serve different purposes for different people. Some come to us to give a family carer a proper break. Others need a period of care and recovery after illness or a stay in hospital before going home. Some need a safe and settled place while arrangements at home are being sorted out. Whatever the reason, the aim is the same, which is that somebody leaves in a better position than when they arrived. Because our stays are short, we work quickly to understand what each person needs, and we listen closely to the people who know them best, since a family carer can tell us in ten minutes what would otherwise take us a fortnight to learn. Staff help with personal care, moving about safely, medication and meals, and are trained for the range of needs we support. Rooms are comfortable, meals are cooked here and visitors are welcome. If you are looking at a short stay for yourself or a relative, please contact us and we will talk through what we can offer.
