About Red Roofs Residential Care Home

Red Roofs Residential Care Home is a residential care home in Newark, Nottinghamshire. We care for older people and younger adults, including people living with dementia, and we offer respite stays for those who need care for a shorter time. Our approach to dementia care rests on knowing people properly. We spend time early on learning about somebody's working life, their family, the music they grew up with and the routines that steady them. That knowledge sits at the heart of the care plan and it is what allows staff to respond calmly when a person is unsettled, rather than simply managing the moment. The house is not run to a single timetable. Some of the people who live here want company and something going on. Others want a quiet room, the paper and a cup of tea in peace. Both are perfectly good ways to spend an afternoon. Respite matters to us as much as permanent places. A family carer who gets a genuine break is usually able to carry on for longer, and somebody recovering after a hospital stay often does better here than at home alone. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. Families are welcome at any reasonable hour, and we would always rather you visited and formed your own view than relied on a description.
