Latest guidance reviews the need for isolation for non-Hospital admissions

The Government has announced that admissions are of less risk if a person has been appropriately vaccinated and the person is being admitted from their own Home and not from another Care Home or Hospital setting.

Residents may be admitted to a care home from the community without needing to complete a 14-day self-isolation period, if they satisfy the requirements. Ask for details.

Keeping things personal

At Mount Pleasant Care Home

The wonderful surroundings at Mount Pleasant Care Home are matched by the standard of care our team brings residents. We love learning as much as we can about the people we care for, so your loved one’s time is tailored to their individual needs, interests and preferences. This can be as small as knowing when they like to wake up, to how they like their tea, and everything in between.

We give as much independence as possible, letting individuals choose how to run the home and if they prefer dinner in front of the TV, or even dusting their own room, we’ll make it happen. Just as putting their own stamp on their bedroom, we’ll help them to personalise it with the things they love.

Every need catered for

Mealtimes are an important part of daily life at Mount Pleasant Care Home. We know eating well and the social experience of dining are key to health and wellbeing. Our chefs select a different menu each day, creating lots of home-cooked dishes with fresh ingredients to choose from. Using their in-depth knowledge of nutrition, they cater for any special diets and needs.

A real occasion

The dining rooms at Mount Pleasant Care Home are laid out in a restaurant style, with tablecloths, folded napkins, crockery and glassware. If preferred, meals can also be served in an individual’s room.

A chance to relax

We make sure mealtimes are a relaxed, enjoyable experience. Team members sit with residents to have a chat and support those who need a little extra encouragement or help.

In good company

Visitors are welcome to join us for a morning coffee or stay for a meal. On special occasions, we can also arrange intimate get-togethers and parties for families and friends.

Keep doing what you love

At Mount Pleasant Care Home, there’s something to tickle everyone’s fancy – from the craft room to the hair salon, our packed schedule of events and activities. And if residents prefer to spend one-on-one time with a member of the team, they can read the paper, pop to the shops or have a pint in the local pub. We have strong connections with the Burton upon Trent community, many of our residents invite them to join in our activities or even run their own here.

Keeping busy

There are group activities to enjoy seven days a week, including crafts, quizzes, films and live entertainment. We also love one-to-one time, with reminiscence sessions and pamper sessions.

Out and about

Friends and family are welcome to visit whenever they like, and where better for a catch up than the bistro? If residents fancy a day trip, we’ll often pop out for tea and cake too.

House proud

We encourage residents to get involved with activities around the house. Simple things like gardening, hosting afternoon tea or laying the table for dinner can spark up friendships and help residents settle in.

Our team

You’ll find the team here are passionate about meeting every individual’s needs, going out of their way to make Mount Pleasant Care Home a place residents can call their own. Our team includes nurses and carers experienced in all types of care.

Nikki Kelly

Home Manager

I qualified as a nurse in 2000 and after 13 years working in a hospital setting moved to work as Home Manager for Caring Homes. I believe that the people we have the privilege to care for should be looked after as if they were our own relative and they should be offered every opportunity to live happy and fulfilling lives at Mount Pleasant.
