About us

 

Annedd is a small and friendly residential home, that has recently undergone complete refurbishment by the current owners.  It is situated in a quiet urban area of the small market town of Llanybydder, near to the river Teifi in Carmarthenshire.  The home is set in its own grounds with rural views of the surrounding countryside, but within easy access to local amenities and community services.

Facilities

Annedd provides twenty-seven en-suite rooms for people who may be presenting with age related illnesses including dementia. Three larger rooms are used to accommodate people who require a wheelchair or mobility hoist for assistance.

The location of bedrooms and communal day areas help to ensure good integration of care. Residents are encouraged to bring in personal possessions, small items of furniture and memorabilia so that bedrooms are personalised.

Communal Areas

There is a spacious lounge located on the ground floor, equipped with a large screen television.  An adjoining dining room is able to accommodate all residents in one sitting.  These two rooms are also used for group activities that are planned around mealtimes.

A second small lounge provides quiet space for residents to sit and read, or to take their families when visiting.  This space also enables our commitment to learning and development to be extended to residents. It is an ideal space for residents who chose to pursue more individualised activities such as ongoing education; and for residents who may have some difficulty with socialising.

The ground floor has easy wheelchair access to external areas.  Outside grounds include paved patios and an enclosed garden where residents can sit in the summer.  There are raised plant tubs to encourage residents to participate in gardening activities.

Meals

Annedd employs experienced cooks who consider nutritional needs and individuals’ likes and dislikes. The menu offers variety and choice for healthy and wholesome diets; it is reviewed according to seasonal changes. Food is freshly prepared and daily homemade cakes available. Meals are served in dining rooms or in individuals’ rooms as requested.

Philosophy of Care

At Annedd, the rights of our residents are fundamental to our philosophy of care; and, in order to encourage our residents to exercise those rights to the full, we aim to:

  • Deliver a flexible service, which promotes the best possible outcomes for the health and well-being of our residents, and sustains their overall quality of life.
  • Provide care to a standard of excellence, based on good practice, evaluated through internal and external monitoring and quality control systems and, in accordance with regulatory requirements.
  • Support our residents to optimise their independence in a relaxed, comfortable, safe and homely environment, respecting their privacy and dignity.
  • Tailor the level of care and support to individuals’ choices, needs, and to meet changing needs as it becomes necessary.
  • Respect the diversity of our residents, helping them to realise their full potential in all aspects of their lives and allowing them to form new relationships if they wish.
  • Wherever possible, liaise with residents and relatives to provide unlimited visiting time to help stimulate our residents and to maintain the all-important contact between loved ones.

 

Care Services, Support and Facilities

At Annedd we take pride in providing a high standard of care with suitably qualified staff. We have experience of caring for people with a range of care needs, but specialise in people with varying degrees of age-related dementia.

Each resident is valued as an individual with differing care and support needs. We aim to provide this care whilst respecting your privacy, dignity, civil liberties, religious and cultural beliefs. The manager is happy to meet with anyone prior to admission to discuss any specific needs or requests.

 

Social Activities

Annedd employs two part-time activities co-ordinators, four days a week to encourage and support residents in various social activities, birthday parties and with individual hobbies.

Residents are encouraged and supported to pursue social activities in and out of the home. We are always open to suggestions to improve our activities, and all are welcome to join in. Not all residents will be capable of, or wish to participate in activities and therefore, individuals’ choices will be respected. Individual care plans will be drawn up to consider each resident’s choices and capabilities.

A sample of the activities provided include:

  • Bingo
  • Fun quizzes
  • Crafts such as knitting, sewing and much more
  • Reminiscing therapy
  • Birthday celebrations
  • Musical afternoons/sing-along
  • Movement to music exercises/light chair exercises
  • Fund-raising events such as summer fete and raffles.

These are the 2024/2025 fees for Annedd Residential (both Private and Council)

Residential: £1092.00

EMI    £1136.80

If you cannot pay the difference in fees, please refer to the social care wellbeing act 2014 that ensures you a right to choice See below.

Any person requiring residential care the local authority has a legal obligation to provide that care under regulation 35 of the Social Services Wellbeing Act 2014. Therefore the local authority must provide a choice of where the person wants to live. Choice of accommodation is enshrined in the Social Services and Wellbeing Act 2014.

If the local authority cannot provide that choice that they normally would expect to pay, which would be the level they set, then they must provide the choice in a facility that is more expensive and meet the cost themselves. The Social services and wellbeing act code of practice annexe C clearly mandates the above.

I would also like to take this opportunity to remind our privately funded clients of their entitlement to attendance allowance. Please contact the manager for further information.

The funding threshold is currently £50,000. This capital limit determines whether a person pays their entire assessed care costs or whether they receive financial support towards the cost from their local authority
