About HF Trust - Clifton View
HF Trust at Clifton View is a residential care home in Shefford supporting adults with a learning disability and autistic adults, including younger adults, alongside older people who need residential care. We work in a deliberately domestic way, because this is a house where people live rather than a unit where care is delivered. The team take time to learn how each person communicates, what they enjoy, what unsettles them and what helps them settle again, and we make sure everybody responds to those signs in the same way. That consistency is what allows somebody to relax, and it is also what lets us notice early when something is wrong. People here choose how to spend their time, keep their own things around them and take on as much of the ordinary running of a house as they want. Where somebody is working towards more independence, we look for the practical steps and go at their pace. Respite stays are available as well, for people needing short term support and for families who need a break. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. The better measure is whether people here seem at ease.
