Exceptional care for your loved ones

At Salvete Care Home, we appreciate that choosing the right residential care for an elder member of your family can be a stressful experience.

You will be supported with compassion, empathy and sensitivity as your family member is welcomed into the home.

Celebrating over 60 years as a care home, Salvete has provided exceptional, person-centred, professional care for the elderly, those living with dementia and the physically frail, in a clean, homely, comfortable and supportive environment.

Salvete Care Home is fully compliant with the Care Quality Commission (CQC) criteria and has been consistently rated as GOOD. Our latest inspection report highlighted how we truly respect our residents’ dignity and acknowledged our work in supporting our residents to make decisions about all aspects of their lives and being responsive to their needs.

A Home-from-Home environment

Located in a quiet, tree-lined residential road in the picturesque, riverside market town of Bedford, Salvete Care Home is close to the riverside, parks, local shops, restaurants and cafes. It is only a 10-minute walk from Bedford town centre and offers our residents easy access to all the town’s amenities.

Decorated and furnished in a homely way, Salvete Care Home creates a warm, friendly and social environment where residents can enjoy each other’s company or their own privacy.

To help ease our new residents’ transition into a care home environment, we support them in bringing their own furniture, familiar items and personal possessions to decorate their room as they wish.

There’s always something to do at
Salvete Care Home

Activities can improve our quality of life.  At Salvete Care Home, we actively support our residents to continue their own hobbies, interests and pursuits, as much as possible, which may include social interaction, physical movement, and intellectual stimulation.

Our activities co-ordinator also proactively organises an activity and entertainment program both in-house and at external venues, and our residents can join in with as many or few as they choose.

Whether it’s celebrating Christmas, a resident’s birthday, a themed occasion, arts and crafts activities, bingo, or even playing games on the Nintendo Wii, laptop or tablets, there’s always something for you and your family member to take part in and enjoy.

I think of you all a lot and of the wonderful care you gave my mother, and how anxious you must all be at this fearful time. I know that you will be giving the best care in very difficult circumstances, whilst at the same time being fearful for your own health and that of your families.

You have a very special team at Salvete and, as I have said to many people over the last few weeks, no training course can teach the skills that I experienced during Mum’s final hours; those are human qualities that come from within the individual and the value is beyond measure.

The most important thing to do as you age is to stay physically active. Lots of people just throw in the towel if they can't do what they used to do, and that's terrible.
