Our aim at all times is to create a relaxed atmosphere in Parc-y-Llyn, where residents feel relaxed and content. We try and provide the extra care which some of our residents need and appreciate, thus making it possible for us to continue our long term care. The residents' families and friends are encouraged to regard themselves as completely at home in all respects whilst visiting their loved ones. Our Philosophy of Care. Parc-y-Llyn Nursing and Rest Home provides on a 24 hourly basis, sympathetic nursing care in a homely environment, whilst preserving maximum independence and dignity for all residents and giving understanding, support and advice to relatives. Many of our care assistants speak Welsh enabling our Welsh speakers to use their native language on a daily basis.  Our holistic approach identifies the individual needs of each resident, respecting their opinions and beliefs with regard to race, gender, cultural and religious sensitivity, and respect of human rights. The nursing care of all our residents is of paramount importance to Parc-y-Llyn and our team of nurses and carers. We welcome the opportunity to include relatives in the care planning procedures of the residents, so agreements can be made for their programme of care if they so wish. This may involve contracting other agencies (Social Services or the Local Health Board) as appropriate. Aims and Objectives To provide a safe environment for residents using risk assessment tools.
