About Theoc House
Theoc House is a residential care home in Tewkesbury supporting adults living with mental ill health and adults with a physical disability, including younger adults. We also offer respite stays. Many of the people who come to us have had an unsettled time beforehand, sometimes in hospital, sometimes in placements that did not work out. Nobody here is expected to settle quickly, and a slow start is not treated as a failure. Trust takes however long it takes. What we offer first is stability. A calm house, staff who are present and who know you, and a day that belongs to the person rather than to the rota. Residents choose how they spend their time. We will encourage someone who has withdrawn to come and join in, and we will equally leave a person in peace when that is what helps. Practical support covers medication, appointments, benefits and paperwork, cooking, laundry and looking after a room. Where somebody has a physical disability we think properly about equipment and access, and about not helping more than is wanted, because being over assisted is its own kind of loss. For younger adults in particular we work on the skills and confidence that make a more independent life possible later. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. Please get in touch to visit.
