About Thackley Green

Thackley Green is a residential care home in Corby in North Northamptonshire. We support older people and younger adults, including people living with dementia and people with physical disabilities. Respite stays are available. Coming to live in a care home is a significant thing to do, and the first weeks matter more than any account of the building. We spend them learning about the person rather than settling them into our routine. What they did for a living, what they cannot be doing with, what time they have always had their breakfast, whether they would rather be in company or left in peace with the radio on. Dementia care rests on patience and a recognisable day. We avoid springing things on people, we keep routines familiar, and when somebody is distressed we go looking for the cause rather than simply trying to settle them. Relatives very often know exactly what helps, and we would far rather be told at the beginning. Where a physical disability affects how somebody gets about, we design around the person rather than expecting them to accommodate the building, and we are careful that helping with one task does not quietly turn into doing everything. At our most recent inspection the Care Quality Commission rated us good overall, and we keep asking residents and relatives where we still fall short.
