“As a daughter, I made one of the hardest decisions of my life to let Mum go into respite care. From our initial assessment, I felt assured that everything was going to be ok. Staff took a genuine interest in my mum and her current interests. She absolutely loved Colliers Croft and made friends with both staff and residents. So much so that she didn’t want to come home and is looking forward to her next stay. I think that speaks volumes in itself. Her room was lovely. Everywhere was clean and tidy and so welcoming. I can’t praise Colliers Croft highly enough. Thank you all for your wonderful care and compassion. Not just for Mum but to me too.” Debbie (daughter of resident)

Life’s Highpoints are the times when you’re having fun…
At Colliers Croft we believe that activities are absolutely key for our residents to continue to live fulfilling and happy lives.
Our dedicated Activities Coordinators deliver a programme of crafts, entertainers, outings, guest speakers and exercise programmes for each resident throughout the year. Along with celebrating milestones such as Birthdays, Life achievements and Seasonal festivity parties. You can view one of our monthly activities calendars here.
For residents who prefer engaging in individual activities these are also tailored to suit so that everyone can continue to develop their individual hobbies and interests.
Our residents can also enjoy reminiscing over a boardgame in our Pub room or take part in our activities which include watching a film in the cinema or using the interactive tables and iPads. Not forgetting the gardening, nature-watching and having fun ‘star gazing’ in the cushioned arbors outside!
“The care my mother has received has been excellent. All the staff, from the manager, deputies, seniors, carers, cleaners and catering staff, are so caring and understanding of my mother’s needs. She is treated with dignity and respect at all times. I would definitely recommend Colliers Croft Care Home to other members of the public who are looking for a home for their loved ones. A big thank you to all the wonderful staff.” D.C.(daughter of resident) September 2022

All our staff at Colliers Croft, from our Admin Staff and Care Staff to our Maintenance Staff, Activities Coordinators and Registered Manager understand the importance of living by our Highpoint Care values of Respect, Teamwork and continued Learning.
Our staff have a challenging role that is hugely rewarding and fulfilling and which requires special levels of kindness and empathy. They nurture and cherish relationships between residents; their family and friends, ensuring residents receive the best possible relationship-led, person-centred care.
“My dad has been in this care home for nearly 12 months, after being admitted originally as respite and then made a permanent resident. In this time he has shown some very challenging behaviour which has been difficult to deal with as his daughter. The staff have been amazing with him, they have adapted to him and know how to deal with him. The deputy managers are always on hand to speak to and have been very reassuring. My dad is food obsessed and the home have happily organised that he has his favourite meal every day! Thank you so much for the care you give him, and us as a family!” Hayley (daughter-in-law of resident)

Colliers Croft is a residential care home for over-55s. It provides 24-hour personalised care, and staff are trained in providing care for residents with dementia type illnesses too.
In most cases, residents are responsible for paying their own fees. If your “capital” is valued under £23,250, then your local authority will provide assistance. Capital means your house, savings and any investments you have.
If your spouse still lives in your home this is “disregarded” when calculating your capital balance. Any joint accounts will be split 50:50.
Speak to the care home and they will be able to advise you about their policy.
Speak to your social services about the 12 week property disregard scheme where social services will fund your fees while you sell your home. You may still need to pay a top up if the local authority only pays at their rate.
You may be eligible for a Deferred Payments scheme. This is where the local authority pays your fees and takes a charge on your house. They will charge you interest. All local authorities operate the scheme slightly differently so you will need to contact them directly.
If you have complex health needs, the NHS will meet your care home fees. This funding is known as Continuing HealthCare (CHC) and is not means tested. There are very strict criteria and most nursing home residents are not eligible. There is more guidance on the NHS website.
The fee should cover your accommodation costs, meals and essential care. Before you choose a home, check out what extras are chargeable. For example, hairdressing, physiotherapy and chiropody are often charged on top of fees.
