Let us
entertain you
Our homes have a daily programme of activities and events suited to all interests
At Encore, we believe everyone has more to give. Our homes provide a warm and loving home environment where you’ll be cared for by our expert team around the clock and where no two days are the same, with a range of activities and entertainments for you to enjoy.
Each of our homes feels like an extended family, with love and laughter at the heart of everything we do. Encore’s private care homes in Dorset & Hampshire have the finest care, comfort and companionship, offering outstanding quality standards in residential, nursing, dementia & respite care.
Our care team are the best; every day, they purposefully brighten and enrich the lives of those we care for with dedication to our core values. Our values define our team and the care that they give; that’s the Encore difference.
Whether you’re a resident, relative or colleague, we believe you are part of our family.
We are one team, always working together, putting people at the centre of everything we do and striving for excellence in every encounter.
We all play our part, doing a bit more, a bit better, to help improve the lives of our residents and reassure their families. We always aspire to be open and act with integrity in all we do. We empower people to be decision-makers in their daily lives.
We value the contribution of all our people, help them reach their full potential, and treat everyone with kindness and respect.
We’re warm and approachable, and human empathy drives our decision-making. We’re kind, we’re honest, we listen, and we see things from the perspective of others.
We take ownership to address issues and solve problems, doing all we can to help and support others, and not shying away from challenges.
Life is about collecting beautiful moments. The small, happy moments add up. Creating surprise moments of joy goes a long way to improving lives.
We treat every person with the same kindness, empathy and respect we would want for ourselves or our families. It’s caring, with a smile.
Our modern care homes are purpose-built to enable our teams to deliver the very best care to residents.
We have designed our homes to provide bright, airy, and spacious shared spaces, which are perfect to spend time with friends, as well as cosy snug corners to relax in for more quiet time.
Every bedroom has an en suite wet-room to ensure privacy and dignity at all times. The landscaped gardens, courtyards and large verandas also offer the ideal areas to enjoy fresh air, birdsong and the changing seasons.
You’ll be cared for by our expert nurse-led teams, who provide exceptional care 24-hours a day, 7-days a week, with nurse stations on every floor. Our care expertise means our teams cater for each resident’s individual and changing care needs, supporting you to live life well and get the most out of every day.
We offer expert care in all five key areas:
Care
You’ll benefit from high quality residential, nursing, dementia, palliative and respite care across all our private care homes in Dorset & Hampshire.
The care you’ll receive is as individual as you or your loved one; every resident has a bespoke care plan which is reviewed regularly. Our focus is on you or your loved one’s care and wellbeing.
Accommodation
Our homes have been designed to put your needs and comfort first. You’ll have your own spacious private bedroom with en-suite wet room.
We offer various styles of rooms to suit your taste, and each floor is its own community so you, or your loved one will feel part of a smaller family unit, and can make friends with other residents and your care team easily.
Cuisine
You’ll enjoy fresh home-cooked meals as we know healthy and appetising food is such an important part of every day. All your meals are prepared in-house by the home’s Chefs and kitchen team.
You’re welcome to invite your friends and family to catch up over a cup of tea and a slice of homemade cake in our café areas or enjoy Sunday lunch with the family in one of the home’s cosy private dining rooms.
Activities
You’ll be able to enjoy the range of activities and events that each home’s dedicated Wellbeing team organises to make sure each day has something new to offer. We’ll help you continue with hobbies you love, or to try new ones.
With entertainers, local schoolchildren or farm animals popping in, there is always something going on. Or if you’d prefer, the team are always happy to have a quiet chat over a cuppa with you.
We understand that there are a lot of things to consider when choosing a care home.
