About 13a Repton Drive
13a Repton Drive is a small care home in Romford. We provide residential care for adults with a learning disability and autistic adults, including people with a physical disability, and we support both younger adults and older people. Respite stays are available too. Being small is deliberate. In a house this size people are known properly rather than generally, the day can be organised around a handful of individuals instead of a rota, and nobody has to fit in with a crowd. It also means staff notice quickly when somebody is out of sorts, which often prevents a small problem turning into a crisis. The people who live here decide a great deal about their own lives: what is on the shopping list, what gets cooked, where they go, who visits. Where somebody wants to build a skill or take on something new, we support that properly rather than talking about it. Where somebody needs the world to be predictable, we keep it predictable and explain changes well ahead. We take time to learn how each person communicates, particularly where speech is not the main way they tell us something is wrong. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. If you are looking at support for a relative in Havering, please get in touch and come and see the house for yourself.
