    Situation

    Five additonal bedrooms, a communal sitting room and a sensory garden to be added to Lawnfield House and 4 new en-suite bedrooms and improved staff facilities are required for Riverview Lodge. The bulk of the funds are for work at Kenbrook, to improve existing rooms and add an annexe resulting in 51 en-suite rooms and creating 2 secure courtyards, making this a specialist dementia, nursing and residential care home in Wembley

    Solution

    All 3 properties were acquired from another service provider by MHA in 2007 and need significant updating to conform to MHA's quality standards for offering nursing and specialist dementia care.The care homes will be very much a part of the local community, through links that already exist with friends of the existing homes, volunteers, churches, faith and community groups.and through new contacts to be established.enabling the residents to feel they are an important part of the local community
