Dining

At The Hazelwell Care Home, we recognise the value of living a prosperous life and the significance that a pleasurable eating experience plays in that. Our resident chefs take great pride in offering home-cooked meals that are always varied and tailored to residents’ favourite specialities, including fish and chip Fridays, midweek and Sunday roasts and our current signature dish, a delicious homemade soup. Meals can be provided quietly in residents’ rooms or socially in one of our dining spaces; the choices and best interests of our residents will always be at the forefront of all we do.

With age, the food we consume has a far greater impact on our health, and we recognise that eating a good meal has a significant impact on our general health and wellbeing. Relatives and friends can relax knowing that residents are enjoying a lovely eating experience every day, thanks to a relaxing environment that the spacious and beautifully decorated dining areas provide.

Mealtimes Catered To You

At The Hazelwell Care Home, mealtimes are highly important because they allow us to spend quality time with our residents and also provide them with the opportunity to form strong bonds with their loved ones and fellow residents.

Residents are encouraged to play a big part in shaping the menus. We hold monthly meetings where residents can share their thoughts directly with the chefs, and this regular feedback helps ensure our dining reflects the tastes of the people who live here. Additional suggestions are often also trialled as starters, which is a wonderful way to keep dishes fresh and personal.

Residents’ friends, family, and loved ones are welcome to join us for supper, and they can do so by sitting with us in our communal dining spaces, in our celebration room or even our dining terrace during the warmer months. Mealtimes can be one of the most enjoyable times for a family, and we want to make sure that residents at The Hazelwell Care Home can continue to have that experience.

Dining & Dementia

For residents with higher dependency needs such as dementia, we provide a dignified and supportive dining experience. This includes adapted cutlery, plate guards and discreet clothing protectors. A mealtime assistant is available on our nursing floor, and food can be served in smaller portions or fortified where needed.

Water coolers are positioned throughout the home, and jugs of mixed juice and fresh fruit are available in all dining spaces so residents can graze at a time that suits them best. Our trolley makes its rounds at 11 am, 3 pm and 9 pm daily, and snack boxes are available filled with fruit, small treats and nourishing extras to offer additional snacks and hydration to each of our residents between meals.

Food-Focused Celebrations That Bring Everyone Together

We are known for our big celebrations at The Hazelwell. Whether it’s a resident’s birthday, a seasonal event or one of our themed dining days, we never miss the chance to make it special and dining is always at the centre of these moments. From hearty buffets and fresh bakes to afternoon teas and themed spreads, our kitchen team go all out to create a memorable experience.

We also regularly open our doors to the wider community, hosting large events where friends, families and local groups are welcomed with open arms. These occasions are a true reflection of who we are — a place that celebrates life and community, and understands how powerful a shared meal can be.
