About Windermere Grange Care Home
Windermere Grange Care Home is a care home in Middlesbrough. We provide residential care for older people, and we support people living with dementia, adults with a learning disability and autistic adults. Respite stays are available alongside permanent places. Something we pay particular attention to is what happens as people get older. Needs change with age for everybody, and for somebody with a learning disability those changes are too often missed or put down to the disability itself. Dementia in particular can go unrecognised for a long time. We watch for it, we take it seriously, and we adapt the support rather than expecting the person to adapt to us. The day belongs to the residents. They choose when to get up, what to eat, where to spend their time and how much company they want. Rooms belong to the people in them, and relatives visit without appointment. Communication gets real attention. Where speech is not how a person tells us things, we learn the way they do. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. Please come and see us if you are considering care locally.
