Malsis Hall is a refurbished country house and estate that provides a Care Home with Nursing as well as a Care Home without Nursing. There is also a purpose-built Hospital on site along with more independent Studio Apartments. This provides a clear care pathway and gives various living and support options to match need, whilst enabling the individual to live in the least restrictive environment safely.
The service holistically supports people with complex mental health conditions on their journey to recovery and independence. We strive to provide quality care and support to enable the person to be as safe and independent as they possibly can be and that they have a clear care pathway back into the community.
We provide opportunities to develop and maintain skills and coping strategies needed for everyday life. We pride ourselves on early intervention and our pathway at Malsis Hall ensures the person builds and develops confidence enabling them to successfully progress down the various available living options on-site to living in the community.
We place emphasis on maximising quality of life and reducing admissions to hospital.
I managed to see my client face to face last week and he is the best I have seen him. He sounded like he is greatly benefiting from the support of your team and I have not had any concerns raised from his family since he came to Malsis. I feel he is well placed and thanks for you and your teams support for my client.

“The ward was very well staffed the entire time. They had made sure they had got food that met my dietary and religious needs from the day I arrived.”
“Malsis Hall is different to most other care homes and hospitals from the Registered Manager through to the Support Workers, Cleaner’s, Maintenance staff everybody knows your name.”
“Everybody gets along with each other despite their differences and there is the quiet lounge to escape to if everyone gets too much.”
“There are always staff around to assist you with cooking, laundry, take you for walks.”
“I think that it is symbolic of the ethos and environment they are trying to create at Malsis Hall – one of it being your home whilst ever you are here, a place that is honest and open and somewhere that each individual is cared for as a person – not a number.”
Malsis Hall offers a therapeutic environment providing effective treatment and rehabilitation through collaboratively working with and empowering each individual. We develop individual pathways that are positive giving each person purpose and goals which are achievable. Interventions focus on positive risk taking and all interventions are recovery based.
The pathway provided on site which includes hospital beds through to independent living apartments supports this rehabilitative approach.
We are a community facing service encouraging integration and independence through engagement and empowerment to enable positive and sustained outcomes.
