Dining & Diet

Here at Wolfeton Manor, we are proud to be able to cater for any special dietary requirements our residents may have and our chef will gladly discuss these requirements with you to make sure you enjoy every meal.

We understand that meal times are an important part of our residents' days. They often provides a perfect time for socialising with other residents as well as receiving a healthy, balanced and nutritious meal. Each individual can choose to dine alongside other residents in our spacious dining room, or privately in their own room.

Our highly skilled chef Tanya is based in the home and visits our residents on a regular basis to discuss their choices and preferences for their meals.

We also welcome residents to eat with their friends and relatives when they come to visit, as this can help in recreating the home environment and allow residents to entertain guests just as they would at home!

Testimonial

How likely would you recommend? Extremely Likely
My aunt has been a resident of Wolfeton Manor for over a year. She is happy there and says she is well looked after. The staff provide the support she needs; they are kind and treat her with dignity. She enjoys the meals which are served in the very pleasant dining room or in her own room, if she prefers. She has her own pictures, ornaments and some furniture, which give her pleasure. She likes sitting in the lounge looking out on the extensive garden. She joins in some activities and clearly is given choices. Relatives are always made welcome.
A chance to really make a difference to our residents' quality of life.

Person Centred Care

For many care homes, writing comprehensive care plans, keeping them up to date, and communicated with residents’ families can be a time consuming task for care staff. As it is essential, we looked into how we can continue to provide our high level of care whilst ensuring all administration and care planning is kept up to date.

We use Person Centred Software, a fantastic electronic care management system to alleviate pressure on care staff, make documenting care plans quicker and ensure all residents are safe, comfortable and happy.
