About Broadlands Park Residential Care Home

Broadlands Park Residential Care Home is in Norwich, and we provide residential care for older people, including those living with dementia, along with respite and short stays. We would rather be straightforward with you. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is requires improvement. We accepted the findings, we have been working through them, and if you are considering the home for a relative we would expect you to ask us exactly what has changed and what is still outstanding. What we are trying to offer is not complicated, though it is hard to do consistently. A comfortable house where older people are looked after properly, treated as adults and left in charge of their own days as far as they are able. That begins with asking how somebody has always lived and then actually working that way rather than fitting people to a routine that suits the rota. Dementia care here depends on familiarity. We keep staffing as steady as we can, we do not hurry anyone, and we take the trouble to learn what reassures a particular person. Families often find this stage hard, and we try to give them honest information rather than comfortable reassurance. Norwich and the villages around it are where most of our residents have spent their lives, and visitors are welcome through the day. Please come and look round, speak to residents and relatives while you are here, and judge the place for yourself.
