Facilities
Bush Home was developed to meet prevailing registration standards from the outset, and as extension and improvement work has been carried out, this has been designed and built to bring the standards of the home right up to date.
This section explains the facilities that Bush Home has to offer service users.
Throughout the development and expansion of the home the Registered Service Providers have worked closely with the registering authority and other statutory agencies to ensure that provision made, has met all registration requirements.
Range of Facilities
Bedrooms
The Bush currently provides Thirty- single and seven companion bedrooms, situated on both the ground and first floor levels. 15 bedrooms have en-suite toilet and all have wash hand basin provision.
Each bedroom is provided with a good quality bed, a wardrobe and set of drawers for storage, comfortable seating, a small lockable bedside cabinet, durable carpet, electric sockets.
Whilst every bedroom is very well equipped, we encourage our service users to bring with them all those special mementoes that they love and cherish. Rooms can be redecorated to individual tastes.
Lounges
We have an excellent provision of sitting and leisure space within the home, which are inter-linked and yet designed to create smaller, more intimate, areas for our service users to talk and be entertained.
There are three good–sized lounges and a small conservatory to the rear of the house with a orangery leading from one of the lounge areas. These together with the open sitting area adjacent to the dining area are all well furnished and equipped with comfortable upholstered chairs.
There are two Smart televisions and a music centre to give a variety to the entertainment available. The communal rooms are light and airy, well decorated and carpeted, and have discrete and appropriate lighting.
Dining Rooms
The dining area is situated in the central part of the home, immediately adjacent to the kitchen and only a short stroll from the various lounge and sitting areas.
We have provided good quality and safe furniture with the comfort of our service users in mind.

We have two gardens at the rear of the property. One of which is a sensory garden, which has a paved area with tables and chairs for service users to enjoy the good weather in a sheltered position. A new orangery has been built and the garden has been lawned and has a raised bed area.

We have sufficient and safe off-road car parking space to meet the needs of the home, which is accessed via the ‘in-out‘ driveway. Whilst the car park is reasonably secure, no liability is accepted for any loss or damage whilst using this facility.
