About 48 Heath Road
Here at 48 Heath Road, we are a residential care home situated in Chesterfield, Derbyshire, and we take genuine pride in the community we have built within our walls. We support a range of individuals, including older adults, younger adults, and people living with a learning disability or autism, and we also offer respite care for those who need a short term stay. We understand that choosing a care home, whether for yourself or someone you love, is one of the most significant decisions a family can make. That is why we focus on getting to know each person as an individual from the moment they arrive. What matters to them, how they like to spend their time, what makes them feel comfortable and at ease — these are the things that shape how we care. Our team works hard to create an environment that feels like home rather than an institution. We want people to feel settled, respected, and genuinely looked after. Whether someone is with us long term or staying for a short respite break, they receive the same warmth and attention. We are pleased to hold a Good rating from the Care Quality Commission, which reflects the consistent effort our staff put in every single day. It is something we work to maintain rather than simply display, and we welcome the scrutiny that comes with regulation because we believe transparency builds trust. We are proud to be part of the Chesterfield community and to play a role in supporting local families. If you would like to find out more about life at 48 Heath Road or arrange a visit, we would be very happy to hear from you.
