About Greenfield Care Home
Greenfield Care Home in Mitcham is a residential care home supporting older people and younger adults, including adults with learning disabilities, autistic adults and people with physical disabilities. We also offer respite stays. Supporting that range well means not running everyone the same way. A younger adult with a learning disability and an older person who finds moving about difficult want quite different things from a day, and our job is to find out what each person wants and build round it rather than offer a single routine and hope it suits. Help with personal care, mobility, medication and health appointments is given as the person has asked and recorded carefully, so that it happens the same way whoever is on duty. We give real thought to rooms and equipment, because independence often depends on whether something is within reach and whether help arrives at the moment it is wanted. Where somebody communicates differently we take the time to learn how and we write it down, so that a new colleague is not starting from nothing and the person is not having to begin again. Families, advocates and other professionals are involved as much as the person wants. We encourage people to keep a life beyond the house, with family, friends, clubs, work or college. Our most recent inspection by the Care Quality Commission rated the home good overall, and visitors are welcome at any reasonable time.
