About Gledhow care home
Purpose-built in 2000, Gledhow provides nursing care for up to 50 people and goes to great lengths to fulfil all residents’ needs, both physical and spiritual.
Set in a quiet suburb of Leeds, the home remains well connected to the wider community and is less than a 15 minute drive into the city centre.
All the private bedrooms are single and feature en suites, with several communal lounges and dining rooms for company and socialising, and the surrounding gardens are graced by a water feature.
The activities co-ordinator provides a full weekly programme - led by residents’ suggestions and wishes - while MHA’s highly trained and caring staff members work hard to ensure the right balance of privacy and company for each individual. Gledhow even has its own minibus to assist residents to get out and about.
Each resident can be assured of the person-centred care that lies at the heart of MHA’s values. Gledhow is committed to providing alternative therapies such as reflexology to residents, which help to promote personal well-being, while home's dedicated Chaplain provides one-to-one support to meet individual spiritual needs.
Funded through charitable support, every MHA care home also prides itself in being able to offer unique and memorable opportunities and activities for residents to quite literally help them 'seize the day'.
Gledhow is always looking for imaginative ways to delight its residents. The home receives regular visits from a friendly donkey who even makes personal appearances in residents’ rooms if required – this just one of the many ways in which residents enjoy richness and fulfilment in their daily lives.
Gledhow is located adjacent to Trinity Court retirement apartments.
