About Florence Court Care Home
Florence Court Care Home is a residential care home in Fareham, Hampshire. We support older adults and younger adults, including many people living with dementia, and we offer respite stays alongside permanent places. Living well with dementia at this stage usually depends on the ordinary things being got right. A calm environment, a rhythm to the day that does not shift about, staff who know somebody's history well enough to make sense of what they are saying, and time that is not rushed. We put our effort there. We also spend time with families early on, because what they can tell us about a person's working life, their family, their music and their habits is what allows us to care for them as themselves. Respite is available for short stays, whether to give a family carer a proper break, to help somebody get back on their feet after hospital, or to see how the home suits before making any longer commitment. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is requires improvement. We would rather set that out ourselves than have you come across it later, and we are ready to talk in detail about what the inspection found and how we have responded. Please do come and see the home, and ask us the awkward questions while you are here.
