About Creative Support - Bredon Respite Service
Creative Support at Bredon is a care home in Runcorn offering respite stays for adults. The people who come to us include older people and younger adults, people with a learning disability or autism, people with a physical disability, people with sight or hearing loss and people managing mental health conditions. Respite is its own kind of work and we try to treat it that way. A short stay can be unsettling if it is handled as a bed to be filled, so we spend time before somebody arrives finding out how they like things done, what reassures them, what they want to bring with them and what would make the stay feel manageable rather than strange. For the family carer having the break, knowing that has been thought about properly is most of the reassurance. While people are here they have their own room, their own routine and a real say in how the day goes. Support is about keeping ordinary life going rather than putting it on hold. We pay close attention to how people communicate, which is not always through words, and we take the time needed to understand rather than assume. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. We keep examining our practice around choice and privacy. If you are considering respite for yourself or someone in your family, please get in touch or come and visit, and we will explain honestly how a stay here would work.
