About Basingfield Court Residential Care Home
We are a residential care home in Basingstoke. Most of the people who live here are older, though we also support younger adults, and between them they bring a range of needs: dementia, mental health conditions, physical disabilities and loss of sight or hearing among them. What they share is the need for a home where help is close at hand without it taking over their lives. We try to keep ordinary life going. Residents decide how their days run, keep their own belongings and routines and are helped to stay in touch with the people and places that matter to them. Meals are cooked here and we take requests seriously. Where somebody is living with dementia, we spend time learning about their history, work, music and habits, because knowing the person is what allows staff to reassure them when they are anxious rather than simply managing the moment. Families are part of this. We would much rather you came often, asked questions and told us when something is not right than felt you were in the way. We offer respite stays as well as permanent places, which can give a relative who provides care at home a planned break. Our most recent inspection by the Care Quality Commission rated us good overall. Please come and see us. We will show you round and be straight about whether we can meet the needs you describe.
