Residential Services
Bayley House has five permanent residential homes and provides a high level of care for up to six clients in each home. We also provide a respite service which caters for up to five people at any one time. The respite service supports the families of those clients still living at home by enabling the families to have some time to themselves. The clients benefit by having opportunities to spend time with their peers and to participate in the recreation/leisure programs offered by the service.
All houses are staffed when the clients are at home. Unless a client is ill or on holiday, houses are normally closed between 10am and 3pm. Staff members at the houses cater to the individual needs of each client and provide a warm and relaxed atmosphere.
Each client has his or her own bedroom, but lounge and dining rooms are shared as are bathroom facilities. Clients are encouraged to maintain and further develop their self-care skills in areas such as dressing, grooming, personal hygiene, cooking, banking and social skills.
At weekends and on holidays, many of the clients participate in recreation/leisure pursuits such as picnics, barbecues, shopping, eating out or going to the movies.
Bayley House is justifiably proud of the standards of its residences and the care given to each client.
