About Newcroft
Here at Newcroft, we provide residential care for a wide range of people from our home in Southampton, Hampshire. We support older adults, younger adults, people with learning disabilities or autism, and people living with physical disabilities. We also offer respite care for those who need a short term stay, whether planned or at short notice. We know that choosing a care home is one of the most significant decisions a person or their family will ever make. We take that responsibility seriously. Our aim is for everyone who lives here to feel genuinely at home, comfortable in their surroundings, and confident that the people supporting them actually know them as individuals rather than just knowing their care needs on paper. Day to day life at Newcroft is shaped around the people who live here. We work hard to understand what matters to each person, what they enjoy, how they like their routines, and what independence looks like for them. That understanding guides how we support people rather than a one size fits all approach. We are pleased that our most recent inspection by the Care Quality Commission resulted in an overall rating of Good. That outcome reflects the consistent effort our team puts in, and we continue to look at where we can do better. Our team brings a real mix of experience across the different areas we specialise in. Supporting someone with a learning disability or autism requires a different kind of knowledge and approach to supporting an older person with physical care needs, and we are proud that our staff are skilled across those areas. If you would like to find out more about Newcroft or come and have a look around, we would be very happy to hear from you. We are always glad to answer questions and help families feel informed and at ease.
