About Tithe Barn
Tithe Barn is a residential care home in Ross on Wye. We support older people and younger adults, including adults with a learning disability and autistic adults. Because the people who live here are at different stages of life and want different things, we plan individually rather than running the house to one routine. Some are out a good deal, at activities, at work or seeing family. Others prefer things quiet and predictable, and neither is treated as a problem. Support is agreed with each person using whatever way of communicating already works for them, and we take the trouble to learn it properly rather than guessing. Help with washing, dressing, mobility and medication is given discreetly and at the time somebody prefers. Our most recent rating from the Care Quality Commission is requires improvement. We would rather tell you that ourselves than leave you to find it elsewhere. We have accepted the findings, we are working through the areas that were raised, and we are willing to explain in detail what has changed. Short respite stays are available. If you are considering us for yourself or a relative, please come and see the house on an ordinary day, ask us the difficult questions, and judge us on how we answer them.
