Facilities at De Baliol Care Home

With a friendly, in-house chef,  most dietary and nutritional requirements can be catered for and a menu created with input from yourself and your family. Fresh food and home cooking are always on the menu to give residents a well-balanced diet. There are two dining rooms and two lounges where residents can unwind and socialise throughout the day, promoting an independent, comfortable environment.

Our outdoor areas feature a large garden and gazebo with a sitting area in which to relax, while a play area for visiting children means residents can spend quality time with family and friends. There are also phone points and free internet access throughout the care home so residents can stay connected with their families and friends for person-centred care.

De Baliol has plenty of parking and visiting hours run 24/7 – but we ask that visitors avoid meal times where possible.

Activities at De Baliol Care Home

The team at De Baliol like to keep residents stimulated both mentally and physically, which is why a number of activities are regularly scheduled by two dedicated activity coordinators. Tai Chi, mind exercise sessions, bingo, baking and sing-alongs are just some of the ways residents are kept entertained, active and happy.

Day trips are organised – including trips to the coast nearby – to give residents new places to explore and enjoy, while the facility itself features a hairdressing salon and hairdresser to give a personal experience without having to leave the home. Themed days, barbecues and fayres are also set up for family days at the home.

De Baliol also features a recently-opened, dedicated dementia wing for residents who require specialised care in relation to their condition. This allows staff to work with residents who share the same needs more closely.
