About Nicholas Winton House
Nicholas Winton House is a residential care home in Slough, supporting older people from the town and the surrounding area, including people living with dementia and people who have a physical disability. We are a residential home rather than a clinical setting, and we say so plainly because people deserve to know what they are choosing. What we provide is a household in which the practical difficulties of later life have been lifted off somebody's shoulders. Help with washing and dressing, given without fuss and in private. Medication managed properly. Meals cooked here and eaten at a table. Somebody awake through the night. Company when it is wanted and peace when it is not. Most people move in after a hard stretch, so the first weeks are taken slowly. We learn how a person likes their day arranged before we start arranging anything, and we expect that somebody may be grieving for their own house while settling into a room here. For residents with a physical disability, accessible bathrooms, the right equipment and staff who know how that individual prefers to be helped to move keep daily life from shrinking. With dementia we work on familiarity and calm rather than correction, and relatives usually hold the detail that settles a difficult hour. The Care Quality Commission has not yet given us an overall rating. Come and have a cup of tea with us and ask the people who live here what they think of the place.
