A warm welcome awaits

Welcome to Brookfield

Brookfield Care Centre is located on the outskirts of the beautiful Leamlara Village in scenic surroundings. Our Home is set in a mature five acres of landscaped gardens. Carrigtwohill Village and Middleton Town are a little over 5 minutes’ drive from us and we have the beautiful coastline of East Cork with its many stunning beaches, Fota Wildlife Park and Cobh Heritage Centre just a stone’s throw away for outings. This offers the perfect environment for relaxed and comfortable living.

Making Life Easier for Families & Residents

At Brookfield Care Centre we want our residents to enjoy the things that are important to them and cherish the pieces that make them unique. We like to go the extra mile to make our residents comfortable, have fun, get involved and generally enjoy the experience of our Home and yet still feel like they can be exactly as they would in their own homes.

Nestled in the countryside of North East Cork, Brookfield Care Centre provides a lovely environment for relaxed and comfortable living.

Our residents have a committee that meets regularly to discuss topics such activities they would like, places they would like to visit and any other things that interest them. We believe that if residents take part in meaningful activities, maintains and develops their personal identity, whilst getting the right help for any health conditions, this can improve and maintain their own wellbeing.

Our Activity Team facilitates a wide range of group and individual activities, we are always creating new Activities for our residents: Bingo, Board Games, Gardening, Movie Afternoons, Baking, Flower Arranging, Reminiscence Sessions/Discussion Groups, Outings, Sensory Activities, Arts and Crafts projects, as well as additional seasonal activities. 

We individualise each person’s activities programme based on their likes and dislikes and we also cater for residents who would rather enjoy individual activities. Person-centred care is the ethos we use to foster independence in our residents. 

A Resident Satisfaction Survey is completed every year. This asks residents their opinions on all areas of life in Brookfield Care Centre. This feedback is used to make improvements in our Home across all departments.

We pride ourselves on the quality of our catering with our chef’s preparing meals daily from fresh, seasoned ingredients.
