Offering an exclusive, individual lifestyle, White Gates Nursing Home is an beautiful, purpose built facility set in the picturesque village of Laleham on Thames. Here, it is our aim to transform people’s lives through the delivery of high quality services in a friendly, home-like environment.
Set in a quiet location, in its own beautifully landscaped gardens, White Gates Nursing Home has 50 single rooms some of which have en-suites. Our residents can choose to have personal, flat-screen TVs with Freeview and direct dial telephones in their well-appointed bedrooms. Most bedrooms enjoy far-reaching views of the landscaped gardens and the picturesque village of Laleham-on-Thames.
Using a “person-centred” approach based on leading theory in current Dementia practice, we work with families, to create a Life Story for each resident. This allows us to get to know each individual’s personal history whilst helping to revisit memories and experiences of by-gone eras. This, coupled with the superior care delivered by our registered manager and dedicated team of nurses and health care staff, ensures that all residents receive 24-hour care and support whilst maintaining privacy, choice, dignity and independence.
Our team, consisting of the Home Manager and carefully selected registered and auxiliary nurses, work alongside our doctors and consultants to ensure the best quality of life for our residents. Excellence in the provision of care and services is achieved through continuous training from external experts and quality improvement.
