Fernwood (22 beds) High dependency rehabilitation

Fernwood is for individuals with particularly complex nursing care needs. Residents may have tracheostomies, required assisted ventilation or may present with a persistent disorder of consciousness. We also care for individuals who may be in the end stage of a progressive neurological illness. Residents have access to input from the therapy team as standard. Individualised therapy or rehabilitation package tailored to individual needs and goals are also available.

Fernwood is also able to provide tracheostomy weaning programmes on-site, where clinically indicated.

Millwood is for residents who have undergone acute rehabilitation and require further therapy input to reach their optimum level of recovery. We provide a range of rehabilitation therapies to help people relearn and practice everyday skills to give them the best chance of a return home.
