About Summer Court

Summer Court is a residential care home in Hornsea, East Riding of Yorkshire, caring for older people, including many living with dementia. Everyone who moves in arrives with a whole life behind them and expects to go on having one. So we ask about it. The work somebody did, the people they mind about, the routines that have shaped their days for decades, the things they are private about and the things they are proud of. We write it down, we use it, and we keep correcting it as we learn, because the notes made in the first fortnight are always the least accurate. The rest is ordinary things done consistently. Getting up when you want to rather than when a rota suggests. Meals worth turning up for. Being helped with washing and dressing in a way that leaves your dignity where it belongs. Somebody sitting with you when the afternoon drags. For residents living with dementia we work with the reality they are in rather than correcting it repeatedly, and families are usually the source of what turns out to be most useful. Respite stays are available. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good, and visitors are welcome.
