About Catterall House Care Home
Catterall House Care Home is a residential care home in Preston, and we support a broader group of people than many homes take on. Older people who need help with daily living, including those living with dementia. Adults living with mental ill health. People with physical disabilities. Younger adults. Respite stays are available as well. A mixed household only works if people are treated as individuals rather than as categories, and that is genuinely how we run the place. Support is agreed with the person, written in terms they recognise, and reviewed as things change. Some residents need a great deal of hands on help with washing, dressing, medication and mobility. Others mainly want stability, company when they choose it, and a household that holds together through a difficult week. For residents living with dementia we keep routines and surroundings familiar and give people time instead of hurrying them along. For those living with mental ill health, the valuable thing is usually steadiness: a team who know them and no drama when a bad stretch comes. For residents with physical disabilities the emphasis is on equipment that fits and transfers handled safely and without embarrassment. We would far rather hear about a small problem early than a large one later, so families who tell us when something is not right are doing us a favour. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. You are welcome to visit on an ordinary day and take your time deciding.
