About Silverdale
We at Silverdale are proud to offer warm, person centred residential care in the heart of Redruth, Cornwall, welcoming older people and younger adults alike into a home where dignity, comfort and community come first. Set within the familiar surroundings of Redruth in the TR postcode area, our home benefits from the gentle pace and friendly character of this well loved Cornish town. Residents enjoy a setting that feels rooted in the local community, offering a peaceful base from which families can visit easily and loved ones can continue to feel connected to the area they know. Our residential care is thoughtfully shaped around the individual, recognising that no two people arrive with the same story or the same needs. We support older people seeking long term residential care, as well as younger adults who benefit from a supportive living environment. For those living with a learning disability or autism, we take time to understand personal routines, communication preferences and the small details that help someone feel truly at ease. We also welcome residents with physical disabilities and those with visual or hearing impairments, adapting our approach so that every person can take part fully in daily life, express themselves and be understood. Respite care is an important part of what we offer too. Whether a family carer needs a well earned break, someone is recovering after a hospital stay, or a loved one would simply benefit from a short stay in a supportive setting, our respite arrangements give reassurance and continuity of care without long term commitment. Families often tell us that knowing this option exists brings real peace of mind. In practice, our approach means listening carefully, planning collaboratively and treating each resident as the expert on their own life. We work alongside families, healthcare professionals and, most importantly, the residents themselves to create daily routines that feel meaningful. From quiet moments with a favourite book to shared conversation over a cup of tea, we believe the ordinary rhythms of home life are what make a care home truly feel like home. Our most recent Care Quality Commission inspection, carried out in June 2023, gave Silverdale an overall rating of Requires Improvement. Within that, we are pleased that our team was rated Good for being Safe, Caring and Responsive, reflecting the compassion, attentiveness and everyday kindness our residents experience. The domains of Effective and Well led were rated Requires Improvement, and we take these findings seriously. They provide a clear focus for our ongoing development, and we are committed to strengthening leadership, learning and clinical effectiveness so that every aspect of life at Silverdale matches the warmth of the care our residents already receive. We believe openness about our rating matters, because families deserve honesty as they make one of the most important decisions of their lives. Choosing a care home is rarely a simple decision. It often comes at a time of worry, change or uncertainty, and we understand the weight that families carry during this process. If you are exploring options for a parent, partner, sibling or friend, we warmly invite you to get in touch with us at Silverdale. We would be glad to answer your questions, talk through the type of support your loved one needs and help you picture what daily life here could look like. Whatever stage of the journey you are on, you are welcome to reach out, and we will do all we can to make you feel supported, informed and reassured.
