High Ash is a female only, seven bedded intermediate rehabilitation bungalow and is situated within the extensive hospital grounds, independent from the main hospital.
The bungalow has its own therapy kitchen/dining room, lounge and extensive garden facilities.
Patients are encouraged to develop independent life skills such as budgeting, preparing meals and laundry.
As well meeting the mental health needs of our patient group, we have an excellent reputation for being able to meet the complex physical health needs as well. In order to do this we have an enhanced contract with our local GP service, this includes a visit from a GP every Tuesday (where they do a ward round) and a visit from a clinical nurse specialist every Friday. We also employ our own registered general nurses, who ensure the physical health needs of all our patient group are met.
Our locked rehabilitation unit in Rudyard, Nr Leek offer female only activities in our female segregated units so that they can work proactively towards their shared goals.
We also have sensory equipment such as the Magic Table – the games provide adults, older people and children with a specific care need with activities that are meaningful and above all lots of fun!
