About Orchard House Care Home
Orchard House Care Home in Mablethorpe supports older people and younger adults, including many people living with dementia and people with physical disabilities. Respite stays are part of what we do. Our aim is an ordinary life with the help that makes it possible. People keep their own hours and their own belongings, choose where and with whom to spend the day, and are helped with washing, dressing and moving about as privately and unhurriedly as we can arrange. Meals are cooked here with real choice at each one. Where somebody has a physical disability, independence often turns on practicalities: the right equipment, a room arranged so that things are within reach, and help given at the moment it is needed rather than instead of the person trying. We would rather support somebody to do a thing slowly than do it for them quickly. With dementia we depend on knowing a person well. We gather their history with their family when they arrive and keep adding to it, so staff respond to the person rather than the behaviour, and we keep the shape of the day predictable. Our most recent inspection by the Care Quality Commission rated the home good overall, and visitors are welcome.
