About Corner House
Corner House is a residential care home in Clacton On Sea, Essex. We support older people and younger adults, including adults who have a learning disability, autistic adults, people with mental health needs and people with physical disabilities, and we offer respite stays for shorter periods. With residents of different ages and very different needs living together, we plan support person by person rather than running the house on one timetable. We help with personal care, meals, medication and appointments, and we support people to keep up the interests, work, study and friendships that make a week feel like their own. Where someone manages something themselves, we protect that and stay nearby rather than stepping in. Communication is something we take real time over. Learning how a person asks for help, how they show that something is wrong and what settles them when a day becomes difficult is the foundation of everything else. Mental health support is provided alongside colleagues in local health teams where that is helpful, and for residents with physical disabilities we pay attention to mobility and to what makes independence possible. Families are welcome whenever they wish to visit and we would far rather hear about a worry while it is small. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good, and we judge ourselves on whether life here actually feels like home.
