Getting up and going to bed

This choice is left very much up to the individual service user at our nursing home and we try to oblige as close as is possible to their desired time.  We allow clients to wake naturally unless specifically requested by the individual to wake them at a set time.

Going to bed, again this is very much the choice of the service user, no-one is expected to go to bed early, unless they request to do so. The normal times for settling people to bed is from 8.30 p.m. onwards.

We do ask for some patience on behalf of the clients. However, we do our utmost to adhere to your requested times and if we are held up a little, clients will be informed of the impending delay.
