The Ormsby Centre is our clients home and we try never to lose sight of that fact. The many facilities within the Centre (2 fully automatic passenger lifts, Parker baths, large day rooms - including a dayroom for smokers, separate dining room and a whole host of specialised nursing aids and equipment - to name a few) are incorporated into the Ormsby Centre in an asthetically pleasing and sympathetic way in order to maintain the 'homely' environment.

En-suite facilities to a majority of our rooms enhance privacy and encourage independance. An active involvement with the local community is always encouraged.

Social Activities

• Monthly - an outing to a local beauty spot or coffee shop to provide light relief from the daily routines.
• Weekly visiting entertainers every week. A variety of acts / entertainers visit the Ormsby every week providing residents with hours of fun and laughter. Many of these entertainers are regulars and the residents have become fond of them and consider them as our entertainers with warm inerter changes occurring.
• Longer day trips by coach are arranged when the weather permits - these are popular amongst our residents and afford everyone with pleasant hours out and about and many happy memories to share for some time to come.
