At Elmswood, we provide a genuine home for people. One where there is love, joy and laughter, as well as excellent care and the ability to be as independent as you are able to be.

Respite and daycare are also available.

We are absolutely patient-focused and dedicated to looking after all aspects of a persons wellbeing. We want people to feel as good as possible about themselves and their treatment, while they are in hospital, and do our utmost to achieve this by paying attention to the big and small things in life. There is always joy, laughter, and regular activities for those who want to participate.
