About Segensworth Road
Segensworth Road is a residential care home in Fareham, Hampshire. We support adults with learning disabilities and autism, adults with physical disabilities, and people living with sight or hearing loss, including younger adults. This is somebody's home, and we run it that way. The people here choose how their rooms look, what is on the shopping list, what happens at the weekend and who they spend time with. Our staff make those choices workable, with support that might include personal care, help with money and appointments, practical assistance to get out, or backing somebody to try something they have not done before. Autism support is worked out person by person. We pay attention to sensory needs, to how much warning someone wants before a change, and to the ways people signal discomfort without using words. What we learn is written down so that support stays consistent whoever is on shift. Communication matters here more than in most places. Where somebody uses signs, symbols, a communication aid or their own particular habits of expression, our staff learn it, and we never make a decision about a person without a genuine effort to include them in it. Respite stays are available as well, giving families a planned break and giving the person staying some different company. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. Visitors are welcome and we are glad to show people round.
