About The White House (Curdridge)
The White House at Curdridge is a residential care home near Southampton in Hampshire. We support older people and younger adults, including people living with dementia and people managing mental health conditions. Respite stays are available. At our most recent inspection the Care Quality Commission rated us outstanding overall. We are proud of it and careful with it, because a rating describes one particular week and everything that earned it has to carry on happening afterwards. What sits behind it is fairly ordinary. We spend the first weeks learning about a person rather than fitting them into our routine. What they did for a living, what they will not be persuaded to eat, what time breakfast has always been, whether they would rather have company or the door shut and the radio on. Those details are most of what makes a room feel like home. Dementia care here rests on patience and a recognisable day. We avoid surprising people, we keep routines familiar, and when somebody is distressed we look for the cause rather than simply trying to settle them. Where mental health is part of the picture, the useful thing is steadiness: keeping to arrangements and being as reliable on difficult weeks as on good ones. We also take complaints seriously. Most of what we have improved here began with somebody telling us plainly that something was not good enough.
