About The Fieldings

The Fieldings is a residential care home in Sutton In Ashfield. Those living here include older people, many living with dementia, people managing mental health conditions, people with physical disabilities and people whose lives have been affected by alcohol or drug use. We support younger adults too, and respite stays are part of what we do. A household this mixed asks a great deal of a staff team and attitude counts as much as skill. Several of the people living here have been judged rather than helped before, and staff who arrive with opinions about how somebody came to need care are of no use to them. One routine will not fit everybody, so we work out individually what a good day looks like for each person, and we accept the answer when it is to be left alone. For residents living with dementia we keep the routine steady and ask relatives early for the history that makes a person's remarks comprehensible. The Care Quality Commission rates us good overall. We keep asking the people who live here what they would change about the place, and we act on it.
