About EdgeHill Care Home
EdgeHill Care Home is a residential care home in Greenwich, south east London, supporting adults living with mental ill health and younger adults who need a settled place to live with reliable support around them. We also provide respite stays for those needing a shorter period of care. A great deal of what we do is about stability. Mental ill health is easier to manage from a base that is predictable, where somebody has their own room and their own things, where meals arrive, medication is supported and staff are consistent and familiar. That kind of ordinary steadiness does more good over time than anything dramatic. Support is arranged individually. For some residents that means help with personal care, medication and appointments. For others it is largely about structure, company and encouragement to keep hold of the things that matter, whether that is education, work, family contact or simply getting out of the house regularly. We work on the basis that residents are adults making their own decisions. People choose how they spend their time, what they eat and who they see, and we are here to support those choices rather than to manage them. Where somebody is finding things difficult we notice early and talk to them about it directly. We work closely with local health professionals and keep families involved where residents want that. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. Anyone considering a placement is welcome to visit.
