About Glenthorne No2 Care Home

Glenthorne No2 Care Home is in Thornton Cleveleys, Lancashire. We provide residential care in a setting that is small enough for staff to know everybody properly and for daily life to feel unhurried. We support people living with dementia, and our approach rests on familiarity and patience rather than activity for its own sake. We support residents with physical disabilities, and residents living with sight or hearing loss, adapting the way we communicate and the way the building is used so that nobody is shut out of their own day. We also support people affected by eating disorders, where mealtimes need care, discretion and a plan agreed with the person rather than imposed on them. Life here is decided by the people who live here. Getting up time, meals, company or quiet, visitors, going out: these are choices, and we make them possible rather than making them for people. Families are welcome and we would rather relatives called in whenever suits them. Respite stays are available too. They give family carers a planned break, and they suit people who need a period of support after illness or a hospital admission before going home. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. We do not treat that as the end of the conversation, and we keep asking residents and families what could be done better. Please come and see us if you are looking at homes in the area.
