About Alexandra Park Home
Alexandra Park Home is a residential care home in Haringey, north London. We support older people, including those living with dementia, adults with a physical disability and some younger adults, and we offer respite stays. We want the place to feel like a household rather than an institution, which in practice means residents run their own days as far as they are able. People get up when they wake, eat what they actually like, and decide how much time to spend with others. Rooms are personalised from the start, and we encourage people to bring their own furniture and pictures because a room that looks like yours settles you far faster than one that does not. Where someone has a physical disability we pay attention to equipment, access and the amount of help we offer. Doing too much for a person is a real loss and it creeps in easily, so we keep asking what somebody would rather manage themselves. Dementia care rests on familiar staff, a steady rhythm and knowing something of a person's earlier life. Families often supply the detail that explains everything, and we ask for it early. Where someone is distressed, we look for the cause. Being in London means family and friends can usually visit easily, and they are welcome rather than managed. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. Please come and look round and ask us the difficult questions.
