Our aim is to help residents integrate with and lead a meaningful lifestyle within the community.

Bradmere & Merrymeet Residential Care Homes are run very much as a family unit accommodating fourteen adult residents at Merrymeet and twelve at Bradmere, all of whom have undergone psychiatric treatment and are now ready to rejoin the community.

Placements are available to adults between the ages of 18-65 with a mental ill health condition. Bradmere & Merrymeet Care Homes do not offer nursing care or emergency admissions.

Both homes are run with the minimum of house rules thus encouraging residents to become part of the family environment.

Residents are encouraged to personalise their rooms as we wish to nurture the feeling of security and comfort which this policy supports.

We recognise that every prospective resident should have the opportunity to choose a home which suits their needs and abilities. To facilitate that choice and to ensure that our residents’ know precisely what services we offer, we will do the following:

Provide detailed information on the home by publishing a statement of purpose and a detailed resident guide.

Give each resident a contract of statement of terms and conditions specifying the details of the relationship.

Ensure that every prospective resident has their needs expertly assessed before a decision on admission is taken, on this basis Bradmere & Merrymeet does not accept emergency referrals.

Demonstrate to every person about to be admitted to the home that we are confident that we can meet their needs as assessed.

Offer introductory visits to prospective residents’ and avoid unplanned admissions except in cases of urgency.
