Maeres House

ABOUT LOCAL CARE HOME - MAERES HOUSE

Maeres House provides support to eight adults with an acquired brain injury.

We support individuals who would benefit from increasing their independence in a supportive community setting. We adopt a person centred approach, aiming to support people to regain their social, cognitive and independence skills, and to develop their confidence.

Speech and language, Neuro-physiotherapy and Neuro-psychology input is available as required. Programmes will be carefully designed and integrated into each person's daily routine. Support will be based on rehabilitation techniques which strive to increase independence, and progress will be monitored closely using Goal Attainment Scaling.

Widnes is easily accessible and has a wide range of community resources, from leisure and recreational activities to educational facilities. The service is also near to Liverpool, Warrington and Runcorn. Vocational opportunities are available, and can be developed at a pace appropriate to the individual.

The accommodation is extremely welcoming and has been designed to a high standard. Maeres House has eight bedrooms with level access en-suite facilities, all of which feel individual and unique and can meet the needs of people with physical disabilities.

The service also offers a wide range of communal facilities, including a training kitchen, a spacious living room, quiet room, activity room/gym and an assisted bathroom. There is an extra training kitchen where people can develop their menu planning and food preparation skills. The service is fully wheelchair accessible, and ceiling tracking is available as required. Externally there is a garden with a level access patio area; everyone is encouraged to be involved in the further design of the outside areas.
