About Orchard Views Residential Home
Orchard Views Residential Home is a care home in Barnsley, providing residential care for older people and for younger adults. We also offer respite stays. We want to be honest about our regulatory position. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is requires improvement. We have not glossed over that with the families who use the home. We have accepted the findings, we are working through an improvement plan and we have made changes to training, supervision and the way we review our own practice. We would rather answer questions about it face to face than have people rely on a leaflet. The daily work continues while we do that. People here keep their own routines, choose how they spend the day and what they eat, and are helped with washing, dressing, medication and getting about in the way that suits them. Meals are proper meals and mealtimes are sociable for those who want company. Families are welcome at any reasonable time and we keep in touch with them honestly, including when our news is not what anybody hoped to hear. If you are looking at residential care in Barnsley, please come and see us, ask the difficult questions and judge us on what you find.
