About Foxlands House
Foxlands House is a residential care home in Barnet supporting adults living with mental health conditions, including younger adults. We work in a way that is deliberately domestic rather than clinical, because this is somewhere people live and recovery tends to happen in ordinary surroundings rather than institutional ones. Our approach starts with the person. We take time to understand what somebody's week looks like, what they want from it and what tends to knock things off course, and we build support around that rather than around a fixed routine. Where somebody is working towards more independence, whether that means managing their own medication, cooking, handling money or getting back into work or study, we look for the practical steps and go at a pace that suits them rather than one that suits us. Life here is not run by the clock. People keep charge of their own day as far as they want to, and support is something offered rather than imposed. Respite stays are available too. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. The better measure is whether people here feel this is their home.
