About Springfield Care Home
Springfield Care Home is a residential home in Chorley, Lancashire, looking after older people who need support with everyday living. Much of our work is with residents living with dementia and with people whose mobility, sight or hearing has changed. We shape the house and the routine around that, with calm surroundings, clear routes through the building, good lighting and staff who take their time. Equipment and adaptations are used where they genuinely help rather than as a matter of routine. Residents bring their own belongings, keep their own habits, choose how they spend the day and see visitors when they like. Meals are planned around what people actually enjoy, and there is somewhere quiet for anyone who would rather be out of the company. Respite stays are available alongside permanent places. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is requires improvement. We would sooner say so ourselves than leave you to discover it. We know which areas were identified, we have an improvement plan in place and we are working through it with our staff team. Ask us about it directly when you visit and we will give you a straight answer. The only real way to judge a home is to walk through it. Please come at a time that suits you, speak to residents and their families, and see how the place feels.
