Our Care Centres

Mallard House Neurological Care Centre

Milton Keynes has three units spread over two buildings, with a total of 78 beds. Mallard House is comprised of two units and there is a separate site which is called Bluebirds. The overall remit of Milton Keynes is to provide specialist neurological care to those residents who cannot be supported in more traditional nursing homes due to the level of challenging behaviour and complexity of their neurological conditions which require a multi-disciplinary team to assess and consult swiftly.

 

Oakley Unit

29 beds 

Oakley supports adults with degenerative neurological conditions in mid-late stage, including end of life care.  Residents will present with increased challenging behaviour, complex conditions with mixed health conditions (renal issues, diabetes, COPD etc.). Neuropsychiatry and Neuropsychology input is essential to monitor and adjust treatment plans in a coordinated and responsive way.

Residents presenting conditions include, but are not limited to, the following:

• Alzheimer’s disease

• Fronto-temporal dementia/Picks disease

• Lewy Body dementia

• Vascular dementia (which is more stable with stepwise changes in ability only if further vascular events occur.

• Parkinson’s dementia

• Acquired brain injury conditions from disease/damage leading to dementia such as Neuroleptic Malignant Syndrome (over use of neuroleptic medication given for long-term mental health problems), Syphilis, Korsakoffs disease (brain injury due to long term alcohol abuse).

• Huntington’s disease.

• Traumatic and acquired brain injury where maximal rehabilitation outcome has been achieved but where needs remain high.

 

Brunel Unit

24 beds

Brunel supports adults with degenerative neurological conditions, early to mid-stage. Residents may have early onset conditions affecting adults in their 30’s-50’s, but older adults also reside on Brunel. Residents have complex neurological conditions with mixed health conditions (renal issues, diabetes, COPD etc). Residents will have mild to moderate cognitive impairments leading to lower awareness of risks and care needs. Staff continually asses and anticipate the level of support required, but a percentage of residents have higher levels of independence and functional ability. Brunel also has two independent living flats to aid the transition back to the community.

Residents presenting conditions include, but are not limited to, the following:

  • Traumatic Brain Injury

  • Multiple Sclerosis

  • Parkinson’s disease/dementia

  • Alzheimer’s disease

  • Fronto-temporal dementia/Picks disease

  • Lewy Body dementia

  • Vascular dementia (which is more stable with stepwise changes in ability only if further vascular events occur.

  • Acquired brain injury conditions from disease/damage leading to dementia such as Neuroleptic Malignant Syndrome (over use of neuroleptic medication given for long-term mental health problems), Syphilis, Korsakoffs disease (brain injury due to long term alcohol abuse), Huntington’s disease

  • Traumatic and acquired brain injury where maximal rehabilitation outcome has been achieved but where needs remain high.
