About Together Nest Lane
Together Nest Lane is a residential care home in Northamptonshire supporting adults living with mental ill health, including younger adults. We offer respite stays as well as longer term places. Many of the people who come to us have had an unsettled time beforehand, sometimes in hospital, sometimes in placements that did not work out. Nobody here is expected to settle quickly, and a slow start is not treated as a failure. Trust takes however long it takes. What we offer first is stability. A calm house, staff who are present and who know you, and a day that belongs to the person rather than to the rota. Residents choose how they spend their time. We will encourage someone who has withdrawn to come and join in, and we will equally leave a person in peace when that is what helps. Practical support covers medication, appointments, benefits and paperwork, cooking, laundry and looking after a room. Alongside that we work on the skills and confidence that make a more independent life possible, and we take people's own goals seriously. For younger adults in particular this is often a stage rather than a destination. We work closely with community mental health teams and raise concerns early. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. Please get in touch to visit.
