About Compass Care - South Park
Compass Care South Park is a residential care home in Huddersfield, Kirklees. We support older people and younger adults, people living with dementia, autistic adults and people with a learning disability, those managing mental ill health, adults with physical disabilities and people with sight or hearing loss. We also offer respite stays. Supporting that spread of needs under one roof is only possible if care is planned for the individual rather than the group. We spend real time getting to know somebody, write plans that describe the person rather than the category, and review them properly as things change. What steadies one person here would unsettle another. People keep their own belongings around them, choose how they spend their days and take part in the ordinary business of the house as much as they want to. There is company and activity for anybody who wants it and quiet for anybody who does not. For those living with dementia we hold routines and faces steady and give time rather than rushing. Where somebody's mental health is fragile we watch for early signs and involve their GP and the community team promptly rather than waiting for a crisis. We work closely with families, social workers and health colleagues in Kirklees. Our most recent inspection by the Care Quality Commission rated us good overall. Visitors and referrers are welcome.
