About Hawthorn House

Hawthorn House is a residential care home in Haringey supporting adults living with mental ill health. We offer respite stays as well as longer term places. People usually come to us at a point where living entirely independently has become too much, at least for now. Our job is to provide somewhere settled while that changes or while somebody finds a way of managing. We do not put a timetable on it, and a slow start is not treated here as a failure. Stability is what we offer first. A calm house, staff who are present and who know you, and a day that belongs to the person rather than to the rota. Residents choose how they spend their time. We will encourage someone who has withdrawn to come and join in, and we will equally leave a person in peace when that is what helps. Practical support matters as much as anything. Medication, appointments, benefits and paperwork, cooking, laundry and looking after a room. Alongside that we work on the things that make a more independent life possible, and we take people's own goals seriously rather than deciding for them what progress should look like. We work closely with community mental health teams and raise concerns early when somebody seems to be struggling. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. Please get in touch to visit.
