About ShawCare@HighWray
We are a residential care home at High Wray in Ormskirk. We are home to older people, including people with physical disabilities, and respite stays are part of what we do. Our priorities are plain: food worth eating, warm rooms, laundry that comes back with the right name in it, help that arrives without a long wait, and privacy when privacy is what somebody wants. Residents set their own hours rather than fitting ours, and an afternoon with nothing arranged in it is a perfectly good afternoon. We take real trouble over knowing people. The working life, the family, which chair is theirs, how they take their tea, whether they want the news on. Those details are how somebody stays a person here rather than becoming a resident, and none can be learned from paperwork. For residents with physical disabilities we plan around what a person can still manage themselves rather than what is fastest for us, because independence given up for convenience is rarely handed back. The Care Quality Commission rates us good overall. Families are welcome to arrive unannounced, and relatives who visit often are the best inspectors we have.
