About Orchard House Care Home
Orchard House Care Home is a residential care home in Scarborough, North Yorkshire. We support older people and younger adults with a wide span of needs, including residents living with dementia, adults who have a learning disability, autistic adults, residents with mental health needs and residents with physical disabilities. We also offer respite stays for shorter periods. Supporting such a mixed group of residents well means knowing each of them properly, so we plan support one person at a time rather than running the house on a single timetable. We help with personal care, meals, medication and appointments, and we support people to keep up the interests, work, study and friendships that make a week feel like their own. Where someone manages something themselves, we protect that and stay nearby rather than taking over. Dementia care shapes much of our work, so we keep the day familiar and offer reassurance rather than correction when a resident is unsettled. For residents with a learning disability or autistic residents, communication and routine come first, and we write plans in a form the person can actually use. Mental health needs ask for patience and for noticing a change early. Families are welcome whenever they wish to visit. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good.
