Where are we?

Maple Leaf House is located on the edge of Ripley, some 12 miles north of Derby city centre by way of Denby and its famous pottery.

Lots to explore

Our landscaped and secure gardens are lovely areas to enjoy the fresh air, and our reminiscence and sensory rooms offer the opportunity for some quiet time. The hair salon is great for a spot of pampering, and our coffee shop is a perfect place to get together with friends.

We have a schedule of optional events and activities, helping residents to explore their interests and discover new ones. Along with frequent animal visits, there’s music therapy, armchair exercises, gardening, flower arranging, arts and crafts, bingo, quizzes and church services with our dedicated chaplain.

We regularly have local singers and musicians in to perform and love to hold themed events.

Award-winning music therapy

Maple Leaf House care home is committed to providing alternative therapies such as music therapy to help alleviate isolation and the symptoms for those living with dementia. Our trained therapist is funded by charitable donations. Our therapist interacts directly with residents through live music therapy sessions. This includes singing, playing simple percussion instruments or responding to musical cues in a one-to-one or group setting. Take a look at our video to find out more about this life-changing therapy.

Chaplaincy and pastoral support

Maple Leaf House is proud to be supported by a dedicated Chaplain who offers pastoral support to all, whatever their beliefs. Our chaplain provides a listening presence, companionship and one-to-one pastoral support for all residents, their friends and relatives, and staff members - irrespective of their beliefs - and organise worship for those who wish to participate. Where appropriate, residents are encouraged to maintain links with local faith communities.

Seize the day – unique and memorable opportunities

Funded through charitable support, every MHA care home also prides itself in being able to offer unique and memorable opportunities and activities for residents to quite literally help them 'seize the day'.

Testing & Vaccination

Residents are tested regularly and have been offered their first dose of the COVID-19 vaccine, with many also having received their second dose. Any new residents will be tested on admission and be supported during a 14-day period of self-isolation to protect themselves and others.

Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)

We have good stock levels of approved Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), which is worn by all our staff and any necessary visitors to the care home.

Keeping in touch

We’re doing everything we can to stay in touch with residents’ family and loved ones, updating them on the current situation and any changes to visiting through online updates, remotely organised meetings and letters.

Privacy and independence, friendship and support - 24 hours a day

Maple Leaf House offers care and comfort, compassion and friendship. At the heart of all we offer is our assurance that you will be treated with the respect and dignity that we all deserve, and if you need anything at all, we’re here to help, 24 hours a day.

Whether in the privacy of your own room or relaxing in the company of your friends and neighbours, we will support you to spend your time doing the things you enjoy. Let us know if it’s music, a favourite newspaper, exercise or a spot of pampering at the salon. Landscaped gardens invite you to appreciate the fresh air, or tend the plants, if you wish. There’s a wide range of social events, so you never need to feel bored or lonely.

Meal times are a special part of the day for you to savour tasty food, freshly cooked by our chef to suit you and any dietary needs. And, of course refreshments are available throughout the day for you and your visitors, who are welcome at any time.

Maple Leaf House has the latest safety and security design features so you can live life to the full with peace of mind.

Your room

All bedrooms have a full en suite wet room with sink and toilet. All rooms also enjoy lovely garden views and there’s WiFi throughout the home.

You can bring your own furniture to furnish your room, such as a favourite armchair or their own bed. Walls can be personalised with their own pictures, shelving and ornaments. Some of our residents bring their own curtains which makes the room theirs and more homely.

Nursing dementia care

We’re proud to be recognised for our pioneering approach to dementia care, which is carefully built around each individual.

Our dementia facilities are specially designed to provide a reassuringly familiar, engaging and warm environment for those living with us.

We have dementia friendly decor, with warm pastel shades throughout. The home has one continuous loop corridor with dementia friendly signage and themed pictures/photographs on the walls. Communal areas are designed to be reminiscent of domestic homes, creating a sense of familiarity and contentment.

Bedroom doors have memory boxes to assist your loved one to find their room. And our lounge areas open into a secure, peaceful garden. Residents enjoy music therapy and reminiscence activities, including doll therapy, designed to stimulate social interaction and alleviate the feeling of isolation associated with dementia. Residents living with dementia who require nursing care, benefit from our 24-hour specialist care, delivered with an expert sensitivity to the symptoms of dementia.

Food and drink

Our commitment to your well-being

Our highly-trained, dedicated members of staff will always be on hand to provide your care and support in the way that best suits you, in the comfort of your own room with en suite facilities.

We choose the people who work with us very carefully. They need to share our values and respect people, their life experience and personal choices.

We take pride in the cleanliness and maintenance of your home and provide a thorough and friendly cleaning service. Your personal washing will be carefully laundered and returned to you, clean and fresh.
