Enter and View at Fourways Care Home
Fourways Care Home
Fourways Care Home is based in a residential area of Sandhurst. It was acquired by JI Ventures in 2024. The home has a capacity for 20 residents and, on the day of our visit there were 19 residents at the home.
Preparation and Planning for the visit
Following discussion with the Local Authority a priority list was presented to the Healthwatch Bracknell Forest Advisory Group who agreed the visit to Fourways Care Home.
Three weeks prior to the visit, the manager was telephoned and we requested a visit on April 1st. This was confirmed with a letter. One week before the visit a member of the team dropped off posters to promote the visit, as well as printed surveys for staff and relatives, along with a post box to hold them securely. The post box was collected one week after we had visited.
During our time there we spoke with 4 residents. Additionally we received surveys from 8 relatives/friends, and 5 members of staff. We also spoke to the manager and the activities lead.
The Enter and View team consisted of Ann Brosnan, Nick Durman and Mike Butcher.
