About Ribble Valley Care Home
Ribble Valley Care Home is in Clitheroe, Lancashire. We provide residential care for older people, and for younger adults whose needs are best met in a home of this kind. A good deal of our work is with people living with dementia. Our approach rests on familiarity and patience. The day has a shape without being run to a timetable, surroundings stay recognisable, and we avoid changing things without good reason. We spend time at the start learning about somebody's life, work, family and habits, asking relatives for the small details as well as the medical ones, because those are usually what helps most on a difficult afternoon. We also support residents with physical disabilities, where the right equipment and enough time are what matter. Life here belongs to the people living it. They choose when to get up, what to eat, where to sit and how the day goes. Care is given discreetly and with proper respect for privacy, and we support people to keep doing whatever they still can for themselves. Visitors are welcome whenever suits them. Respite stays are available as well, for family carers who need a planned break and for people needing support after illness or a hospital admission. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. If you are looking at homes in the Clitheroe area, please come and see us on an ordinary day.
