About Redlands Care Home

Redlands Care Home is in Lytham St Annes. We provide residential care for older people and younger adults, including people living with dementia, people managing mental health conditions and people dealing with difficulties around alcohol or drugs, and we offer respite stays. The people who come to us have arrived by very different routes, and we have learned not to treat anybody as a type. Some residents are here because age has made managing at home unsafe. Others are here because their mental health or a long struggle with alcohol has made independent living difficult for now. What both groups need from us is the same, which is somewhere settled, staff who do not judge them, and a say in how their own day runs. We are consistent and we are patient, and we work alongside community mental health teams, GPs and recovery services rather than in parallel with them. Residents take part in running the house, hold regular meetings and are listened to when they raise something. For residents living with dementia we keep the day predictable and calm and we learn what reassures a particular person. Meals are cooked here and people have a say in what appears. Visitors are welcome through the day, and the coast is close enough to be part of ordinary life. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. Please come and see the home and talk to the people living in it.
