About Wynyard Woods
Wynyard Woods is a residential care home in Billingham, providing older people with a comfortable and settled place to live and support always close at hand. We try to keep the feel of a household, with days shaped by the people living them rather than by a timetable on the wall. Supporting residents living with dementia is a large part of our work. We do that by learning who each person is, keeping routines familiar and the day unhurried, explaining changes before they happen, and treating distress as something with a cause rather than as behaviour to be contained. Our team helps with personal care, medication, mobility and meals, and equally with the parts of the day that give it value: conversation, company for those who want it, quiet for those who do not, and time outside when the weather allows. Rooms are personalised and relatives are welcome whenever they can come. Respite stays are available for people needing care for a short period. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is Good. If you are looking at care homes in this area, please come and see us at an ordinary time of day and ask us whatever you would like to know.
