About Rowan House Residential Home
Rowan House Residential Home is in Saltash, Cornwall. We look after older people who need support with everyday living, and we also support younger adults whose needs mean that living alone is no longer manageable. Much of our work is with residents living with dementia. We keep the house calm and familiar, we give people time rather than hurrying them through the day, and we make sure staff know each resident's history and habits, because that knowledge is what turns a set of tasks into care that actually fits the person. Residents bring their own belongings, keep their own routines, choose how to spend the day and see visitors when they like. Meals are planned around what people genuinely enjoy, and there is somewhere quiet for anyone who would rather be out of the company. Respite stays are available alongside permanent places. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is requires improvement. We would sooner tell you that ourselves than have you find it elsewhere. We know which areas were identified, we have an improvement plan and we are working through it with the staff team. Ask us about it directly and we will give you a straight answer. The only real way to judge a home is to walk through it. Please come at a time that suits you and speak to residents and their families.
