About Cornerways Residential Home
Cornerways Residential Home provides residential care in Hythe, Kent, for older people, including people living with dementia. We offer permanent places and shorter respite stays. We run the home at the pace of the people in it. Breakfast happens when somebody wakes rather than when a trolley comes round, and the day takes the shape a person wants. The care covers help with washing and dressing, medication, meals cooked here, support with mobility, and somebody always around when a person needs them. For those living with dementia we keep the routine steady and the faces familiar, and we arrange the house so that it is easy to understand and to move around in. Our staff tend to stay with us for a long time, and that continuity does more to settle somebody than any particular method could. Hythe is home for most of the people living here, and we keep those threads going with trips out, visitors from local groups, and family welcome whenever they wish to come. Respite can cover a family holiday or a period of recovery after illness. Our most recent rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. Please ring us if you would like to come and look round the house.
