Hazelgrove Court Care Home
Newsletter February, 2013
I hope this newsletter finds you all well.
Firstly may I welcome new residents, I hope you
enjoy your stay here and on behalf of the
management of New Century Care Limited and the
staff of Hazelgrove Court warmly welcome you
here.
Thank you to all those who attended the latest
relatives meeting, I apologise for those who weren’t
aware of the meeting but one suggestion received
was collating email addresses so the forthcoming
newsletters could be emailed to you, if you would
like this please advise Trish or Tina so we can
incorporate your details in the mailing list.
The weather has sadly prevented any outings at the
present time. However I AM DELIGHTED TO
ADVISE that New Century
Care is re-commencing
‘Holiday Transfers’ between
the company’s homes.
As you are probably aware
Hazelgrove Court is owned
by New Century Care
Limited who has 27 homes
across England and
Scotland which, subject to
availability and care
requirements, can be visited
for periods of time as
holiday’s for residents. Please ask Tina for more
information.
Carys Jarvis Area Director is now supporting
Hazelgrove Court. If you wish to speak with her
please ask Tina for contact details.
