Life at The Porterbrook Care Home
Our luxury residential care home in Sheffield offers an array of activities within our weekly activities programme which is created by our Activities Coordinators. Residents will never be short of things to do and they have the freedom to do whatever they wish with their day, so if they would prefer to do something else, they are more than welcome to do so.
Activities that residents have done in the past include decorating and making for the home, gardening, baking pamper days and entertainment from live musicians as well as trips to local attractions. Our team works hard to ensure that the activities and workshops that take place meet the interests of our residents, and our team is always willing to incorporate new ideas into the programme.

Whether residents enjoy history, trying new cuisine, or walking in nature, there are so many options when it comes to finding something to pique our resident’s interests.
Residential Care
Residential care is an appropriate type of care for those who need little assistance with their day-to-day tasks or personal care but are able to be independent for the majority of the time. Those receiving residential care are guaranteed an excellent social life, enjoy delicious meal times on a daily basis and take part in the activities and hobbies they love most.
We work closely with residents and those closest to them to discover the care needs of a resident, as well as their interests and abilities in order to tailor a personalised care plan. As residents’ needs may vary over time, we will reassess their method of care to meet this, a decipher whether a different type of care is more appropriate.
Dementia Care
We offer high-quality dementia care at our residence, ensuring residents living with dementia are comfortable in their environment and have everything they could ever need from us. Our aim is to guide our residents while keeping an element of independence where possible. Our staff has had an extensive amount of dementia care training and is dedicated to providing specialist care.
We ensure that the daily care we provide is tailored to the care needs of each resident living with dementia, as well as taking into account the wishes of their friends and family members. The Porterbrook provides dementia-friendly activities so that people living with the condition can be engaged with a variety of fun activities each day.
Respite Care
Whether you’re currently providing full-time care for a loved one or looking for a place to recover following an illness or injury, respite care will be the best option for you. This care service enables someone to fully unwind at our home, knowing that you will be looked after by our professional care team.
Respite care can also be used to trial a residential care home, giving someone the opportunity to decide if a care home is the right fit for them. As each person receiving temporary care has differing needs, a customised care plan will always be created for every individual.
