About Britannia Care
Britannia Care is a care home in Bradford. We provide residential care for older people and younger adults, and we support people living with dementia, people with a physical disability and people managing a mental health condition. Respite stays are available alongside permanent places. Bradford is a city of many communities and we look after people from most of them. That shapes ordinary things here: what is cooked, which festivals are marked, which languages are spoken on a shift, whether somebody has somewhere quiet to pray. These are not extras. For most people they are the difference between living somewhere and merely being accommodated. We build support around the individual rather than the diagnosis. Two people living with dementia may need almost opposite things, and someone whose mental health has been difficult for decades usually knows far more about what helps them than any assessment will capture. We ask, we listen and we write down what we agreed. Respite is offered both for planned breaks and for the times a family reaches the end of what they can manage. Either way the person staying with us is a guest, not a case. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. If you are looking at care in Bradford, come and visit. Speak to residents, ask staff how long they have been here, and make up your own mind rather than relying on a description like this one.
