Keeping activeExperience has taught us that when older people
continue to enjoy an active life, they benefit
from improved physical and mental health,
increased self-esteem and a sense of wellbeing.
At Care UK, we call this Activity Based Care (ABC)
and it is at the heart of everything we do at
Sunningdale Court. Whether making a cup of
tea, laying the table or performing other everyday
tasks, we will provide the support needed to help
residents to remain as independent as possible.
Everyone will set their own pace, no-one will ever
be rushed or made to do anything they don’t feel
like doing - our support and encouragement will
simply be there if needed.
At Sunningdale Court, our Activities Coordinator
works closely with our residents to organise both
group and one-to-one activities that everyone
will enjoy. All activities are completely optional,
of course, but for those who would like to
participate, we offer visits from entertainers and
school groups, board and Wii games, crafts,
cooking and much more.
A warm welcomeWe all want the best for the people
we love, but there may come a time,
particularly if you’re responsible for
the care of an older relative, when it
becomes difficult to cope or to ensure
the very best quality of care at home.
At this point, moving your loved one to a
professional care home is often the best
way forward. Here at Sunningdale Court
we understand that this can often be an
emotionally difficult decision, but should you
decide this is right for your relative, we’ll be
there to help.
The superb facilities and comfortable,
purpose-built accommodation on offer at
Sunningdale Court, together with our unrivalled
standards of expertise and experience in
providing residential and respite care for older
people, including those with physical disability,
will not only allow your loved one to continue
receiving the very best attention and quality
of life, but also make the transition easier for
everyone involved.

“It’s the people who really make the difference”
We careWe take time to find out about each and
every one of our residents - their lifetime
of experiences, interests and memories.
We genuinely enjoy getting to know each
individual in our care and what we learn helps
us to create a care plan that is uniquely and
sensitively tailored around them; one which
enables them to continue enjoying a life that’s
as fulfilled, active and independent as possible.
This personalised care is also extended to our
residents’ families and friends too. We’re always
on hand if you need emotional or practical
support and we’re happy to help if you wish to
continue having a key role in your loved one’s
day-to-day care. You’re welcome to visit or call
whenever you like and we’d be delighted if you
want to join in our activities and excursions.

Our peopleWhen we recruit new members of staff, we’re
just as interested in their caring, compassionate
natures as we are in their qualifications and
experience. After all, it’s those personal skills
that make all the difference between good care
and great care.
Every one of our residents will experience this
difference for themselves. Care is tailored
around the individual, and residents are always
treated with dignity and respect. The comfort
and health of our residents is our main priority
and we work on a one-to-one basis to ensure
each individual receives the care and attention
he or she needs to live a happy, fulfilling life.
As part of Care UK, we are committed to
continually improving the level of care received
by our residents and provide ongoing staff
training to ensure this is achieved.

Tempting menusMealtimes at Sunningdale Court are an
opportunity for residents to enjoy tasty,
nutritionally balanced meals in good company.
We offer relaxed, comfortable surroundings,
with a member of staff on hand at all times and
individual assistance provided if needed.
Every day our chef selects fresh, seasonal
ingredients and plans tasty, nutritious menus
around residents’ individual likes and dislikes
as well as any special dietary and cultural
requirements. We make sure there is always
plenty of choice on each menu and our chef
enjoys finding out what residents’ favourite
meals are so they can be regularly included.
We ensure snacks, fresh fruit and refreshments
are available 24 hours a day. For celebrations,
such as birthdays or anniversaries, we’re
delighted to provide party food or something
special to mark the occasion.
Sunningdale Court always extends a cordial
invitation to family and friends who are
warmly invited to join us for meals, whenever
they wish to.
Home comfortsAll bedrooms at Sunningdale Court are
comfortable, of a good size and come equipped
with stylish furniture, television connection and a
24-hour nurse call system fitted as standard.
We encourage residents to personalise their
rooms and where possible to bring in small
pieces of furniture or other treasured items that
will help to create a space that’s familiar and
comforting to them.
We offer a choice of lounges so residents can
choose to socialise with friends or visitors or opt
for some quiet time to read or relax. We also
have a small reminiscence lounge.
Outside, Sunningdale Court is secure and fully
wheelchair accessible and features a patio,
lawned area and fishpond.
