About Beaufort View

Beaufort View is a residential care home in Bournemouth supporting adults with a learning disability and autistic adults, people with a physical disability and people with a visual or hearing impairment, most of them younger adults. Respite stays are available as well as permanent places. We are a small house and everything follows from that. People have their own space and their own routines and a genuine say in how the place is run. What we are trying to achieve is not a smoothly run home for its own sake. It is that the people living here get on with the things they actually want to do, whether that is a job, a college course, seeing friends or going out without somebody alongside them. That means knowing people properly, including how somebody communicates when they are anxious and what their sensory needs are. Where someone has a physical disability, a great deal of the quality of our care lies in the detail of how help is given rather than in whether it is given at all. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good.
