Light bedroom with wardrobe

Rooms & Facilities

At Stoke, we have 22 individually decorated bedrooms, most with en-suites, and we also have a twin bedroom. Sometimes sharing a room can make some residents feel less lonely and help them to sleep better. Our rooms are furnished with reclining beds, comfortable chairs and wardrobes.

We encourage relatives to bring in items with a familiar feel that may have sentimental memories. Personal items can include old photographs (please be mindful of bringing in new photos as these can cause anxiety), postcards from favourite holidays, a cosy blanket, or a chair. We want to make sure that our residents feel completely comfortable and at home in their surroundings.

Each night, the night staff sit and talk with every resident, and these personal items are fantastic for starting conversations. For a person living with dementia, struggling to recognise their bedroom brings all sorts of unsettling feelings, so having familiar items around the room really helps.

If required, rooms can include discreet motion sensors and door alarms. Floor mats can also be added for extra safety or when motion sensors are not appropriate; all monitors are subject to individual needs and mental capacity assessments.
