Long Term Nursing Care
Bringing together care and support, whilst promoting independent living and authentic choice; we offer the ideal balance of positive intervention, whilst respecting your independence and privacy. Our Activities Co-ordinator will design and incorporate inspiring activities into your daily regime in a nurturing, home-from-home environment.
Convalescence Care
We know that respite care and therapeutic pampering can aid recovery following an illness or operation. As each individual is different the length of stay can vary between one week to twelve weeks. More than just outstanding, tailored nursing care; our physiotherapist, chef and hairdresser will take care of what they do best – allowing you to get back to taking care of yourself – we welcome holiday stays.
Palliative Care
Supporting your psychological, physical and spiritual wellbeing – and your family – at this incredibly sensitive and emotional time will always be our key priority. We are dedicated to providing the highest possible standard of care as a person nears the end of their life’s journey. Through advanced care planning we ensure dignity, peace, and tranquillity.
Activities & Music
Our simple approach to planning activities starts by finding out what you like to do and then develop a schedule around that. As a result, there’s always something happening; skittles, card games, craft, group exercise, Smovey Health classes. as well as reading daily newspapers. A variety of local musicians visit Maypark House each week, playing familiar tunes from years gone by. Our musicians also help celebrate our events and special days, the annual garden party is always a favourite, on very special occasions some of the staff even give us a song!
Physiotherapy
We are devoted to aiding your recovery and motivating you to return home as quickly as possible. Our in-house physiotherapist, nurses, visiting occupational therapist and team of health professionals will help to get you back on your feet – and our chef-led restaurant meals will support you with a nutritional, well-balanced diet.

We respect all religions and many of residents derive great support from prayer groups, mass and other religious services. Along with physical care, religious & spiritual care are important to people who live at Maypark House Nursing Home, it can provide a sense of peace and serenity. Clergy of all denominations are welcome at any time. Mass is celebrated in the Chapel at Maypark House. When a priest cannot say mass, it will be live streamed.

Residents are also welcome to attend religious services in their local church.
