About Waterfield Supported Homes
Waterfield Supported Homes provides a residential home in Lewisham for older people, younger adults, people living with dementia, and people living with mental health conditions. We should be open about our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission, which is requires improvement. We would rather raise it ourselves. We know which areas were identified, we have a plan of work under way covering staff training and supervision, our record keeping, and how people and their families are involved in decisions, and we are glad to talk through where we have got to. The work of the house continues properly meanwhile. People keep their own routines as far as they can and arrange their own rooms. Support covers washing and dressing, medication, meals, money and paperwork, and getting to appointments. Where somebody is managing a mental health condition, a calm and predictable household does more good than any particular intervention, and for those living with dementia we keep the routine steady and the faces familiar. Short respite stays are available. Please come and see us and ask whatever you need to ask.
