About Enbridge House Care Home
Enbridge House is a residential care home in Newbury supporting older people and people with physical disabilities. We offer permanent places and respite stays. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is requires improvement. We are putting that at the top rather than the bottom, because a family looking at homes for a relative deserves to hear it from us rather than find it elsewhere. We know which areas were identified, work is under way on them, and we will talk anybody through what has actually changed. The daily work here is what residents judge us on. Getting somebody up in the way they prefer. Meals worth sitting down to. Company when it is wanted and quiet when it is not. Noticing early when a person is not themselves. For people with a physical disability, the practical detail is what counts, from equipment that fits properly to real respect for how somebody prefers to be helped. Respite stays give a family carer a planned break with proper support in place for the person staying. Please come and visit on a normal day, speak to residents and relatives, and judge the home for yourself.
