The skilled team at Britten Court provides high-quality care that is fully personalised to each resident. Care services range from respite and residential to nursing and dementia care. There is also a day club offering care and companionship for people in the local area.
Britten Court has its own cinema room, café and hair salon, which residents can use whenever they wish. The café is a great place to catch up with loved ones over a cup of tea and some freshly baked cakes.
The team is dedicated to enabling residents and day club members to live each day to the full. There is always something to do, from group and one-to-one activities to visits from local schoolchildren, entertainment from performers and outings to places of interest.
From the manager
“I originally began working for Care UK when it took over the running of various homes operated by Suffolk County Council. The organisation truly puts residents at the heart of everything, which I completely support. It’s also very supportive as an employer – as a manager I have a great support network to help me do my job to the highest standards. I enjoy mornings the most at Britten Court: many residents are up and about and I can spend time with them, having a chat and finding out how they plan to spend their day. I’m privileged to work with some wonderful residents and families, including some people we’ve been supporting for a long time because they transferred from the old Council-run homes like I did! Outside of work, I have a very busy home life. I’ve three children and eight grandchildren who I love spending time with. ”
