‘‘Both my husband and I have been made very welcome. Nothing is too much trouble for the staff, and all his needs are being met. I feel that he’s safe and they understand all his complex medical needs. It’s a thoroughly lovely home-from-home.’’ Jane, wife of Edgewater resident

Welcome to Edgewater At Edgewater, our mission is to make every day better for adults living with complex needs. Our Nurse-led team provides person-centred nursing care that focuses on maximising independence and building everyday living skills. We aim to empower people to live fulfilled lives. The home has three small units which support adults with complex needs arising from dementia, mental health conditions, neuro-disabilities and physical disabilities. Our Royal Iris Unit is exclusively for those who were assigned male at birth. The people we support often have multiple diagnoses, complexities and risks that might otherwise require care in a hospital or higher acuity setting. With our care, they can remain within the community, reducing the need for hospital or secure facility admissions.

Life at Edgewater We all want to spend time doing the things we love best. So that’s what we aim to give the people we support at Edgewater. Daily life is all about choice. Everything we do is personalised to the individuals we support. Together with loved ones and professionals, we design a care plan, tailored to individual needs and goals. We encourage the people we support to continue to do the things they enjoy. We enable them to learn, volunteer and find new hobbies too if they wish. Our dedicated Activities Team supports meaningful one-to-one activities, as well as group sessions and events.

Our holistic approach to care

Our holistic approach to care means people get the right care from the right team, at the right time, first time round. With this approach, we aim to stop the cycle of failed placements. Edgewater offers holistic care in a community-based home, close to friends and family. The home has a trained team of Registered Nurses, Health Care Assistants and Activities Coordinators, as well as an in-house Physiotherapist. Residents at Edgewater also have the support of Exemplar

Health Care clinical experts, our Behaviour Support Team and a Consultant Psychiatrist in times of crisis.

Our high staffing levels, based on individual need, allow us to build trust and work at the pace of the individual, which leads to improved person-centred and longer term outcomes.

Our referrals process

We work closely with individuals and professionals throughout the referral, assessment and admission process to ensure that we’re right for the individual and the individual is right for our home. Once we agree a placement for an individual, we work with them, their family, commissioners and clinicians to agree their goals and length of stay. Our detailed costing report outlines the support required to enable people to achieve their goals. This approach reduces readmissions to acute settings, facilitates faster returns to lower cost community living and brings any cycle of failed placements to an end.
