Our Five-Step Process for Transforming Senior Care Home Gardens
Site Audit
A senior horticulturalist and account manager complete a walkthrough with facility staff. They access routes, seating needs, and therapy zones. This briefing defines the needs of the centre residents and staff for enabling us to offer a purposeful service.
Diagnostics
Technicians take soil samples and measure compaction, pH, and nutrient levels. We understand the soil and atmosphere to derive a tailored plan.
Remedial Works
Our work begins with a focus on root strength and surface stability. We aerate compacted turf using hollow tine machines at depths suited to each grass type, ensuring better airflow and water absorption. We then de-thatch to remove old organic layers before levelling with sand or loam blends where uneven surfaces appear. Finally, we manage the weeds through selective spot-weeding and careful manual removal.
Pest and Foliage Management
Pest monitoring includes the usage of pheromone traps and visual surveys to identify pressure points early. During these treatments, we use low-toxicity products and also ensure it commences when there is low or nil occupancy in the garden. For Foliar disease issues, we use a combined cultural control improving airflow, pruning for light penetration, and removing infected material promptly.
Ongoing Care
Each site receives a seasonal program and a visit log that records actions taken, soil readings, plant health notes, and recommendations. Our account managers schedule follow-up reviews after major works and adjust plans based on resident feedback, event calendars, and any clinical changes at the facility.
FAQs
Each program includes scheduled tasks such as mowing, edging, pruning, and spot-tidying to keep the grounds looking consistently cared for. We also monitor plant health and seasonal needs so everything stays attractive and welcoming for residents and visitors alike.
We map irrigation zones, repair leaks, and install smart controllers where suitable; we set schedules by soil moisture data and seasonal evapotranspiration to minimise run times without stressing plants.
Yes. We prefer low-odour, low-toxicity options and schedule applications when few residents are outdoors; we also clear debris promptly and isolate treated areas until safe for normal use.
