About Santa Care
Santa Care is a residential home in Northwood, supporting a broad mix of adults who need somewhere to live with care in place. That includes older people, younger adults, people with a learning disability, autistic people, people managing mental health conditions, people with physical disabilities and people living with sight or hearing loss. Supporting people with such different needs under one roof only works if you treat everybody as an individual, and that is how we run the home. Each person has a plan built with them, at their pace, covering what they want help with and, just as importantly, what they want left alone. We check whether it still fits rather than assuming it does. Everyday life here is not heavily programmed. People choose how they spend their time, what they eat, who they see and how much they join in. Where someone wants support to get out, to keep up with work or study, or to stay in touch with family, we arrange it. We offer respite stays as well as permanent places, which can suit a family needing a planned break or somebody who wants to try the home first. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. You are welcome to arrange a visit and see the place for yourself.

Questions families ask about Santa Care
Can Mum or Dad stay here if their dementia gets worse?

Is there a nurse on site if health needs change?
No. Santa Care is a residential care home without on-site nursing. District nurses and GPs visit, but someone who needs daily nursing may have to move to a nursing home.
Can they try a short stay before deciding?
Yes. Yes. Santa Care offers respite and short stays, which is a good way to see whether the home is the right fit.
Will they support end of life care, so there is no move at the hardest time?
Ask the home. End of life care is not listed on the register. Ask the manager whether residents can remain in the home with hospice or district nurse support.
Can she bring her cat or dog?
Ask the home. The home has not told us its pet policy yet. Ask directly; some homes allow small pets in residents' rooms or welcome visiting dogs.
Can a couple stay together?
Ask the home. We do not know whether the home has rooms for couples. Ask about shared or adjoining rooms if this matters.
Will the council help pay, or is it self funded only?
Ask the home. The home has not told us which funding it accepts. Most homes take both council funded and self funded residents; ask about council rates and any top up.
Do they take younger adults as well as older people?
Yes. Yes. Santa Care supports younger adults as well as older people.
Can I visit before deciding, and are there visiting hours?
Ask the home. Every home should welcome a visit. Call to arrange one, ideally at a mealtime or during an activity, and ask about visiting hours for family.
