About St Peters Row Delarue Close
St Peters Row on Delarue Close is a small residential care home in Tonbridge, Kent, supporting adults with a learning disability or autism. We also offer respite stays, which can give a family carer a genuine break while the person staying with us has company and a change of scene. This is somebody's home before it is anything else. People here have their own rooms, their own routines and a real say in how the day goes. Support is about making ordinary things possible rather than doing them for people. Cooking a meal you like. Doing your own shopping. Managing money and appointments. Getting to a club, a course or a job. Seeing family and friends when you want to. We are careful about that distinction, because independence is easily eroded by help that arrives in too much of a hurry. Communication matters a great deal here. Not everybody uses many words, and understanding a person properly takes time, attention and a willingness to be corrected rather than assumptions. Plans are written with the person, reviewed honestly and changed when they no longer fit, and we work alongside families and social work and health colleagues so that support is joined up. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. We keep examining our practice around choice and privacy. If you are considering a place or a respite stay with us, please come and visit and meet the people who live here.
