Overview
Culwood House has been under the ownership of Mrs Anita Larkin since 1988. It is a Victorian building situated in the beautiful countryside of the Chilterns, 5 minutes’ drive from Chesham town centre. It is home to 17 residents, with a CQC registration for 19 residents aged 18 and above, managing extra care needs such as dementia and palliative care.
All the bedrooms at Culwood House are en-suite and basically furnished. Residents are encouraged to personalise their rooms so they feel comfortable and at home. Residents and their visitors have access to a communal lounge, dining room and conservatory as well as a large garden and a Summer House. The Summer House has a kitchenette and bathroom so visitors can stay overnight if required. Specially adapted bathrooms and a nurse call system are located throughout the home.
The smaller size of the home enables the care assistants and other staff to build closer relationships with the residents and cater for their needs on a more personal level. Visitors are welcome at any time, within reason, into Culwood House and encouraged to stay for meals and refreshments. Culwood House accepts well behaved pets on the premises at the management’s discretion.
