About Wolsey House
Wolsey House is a residential care home in Salford supporting adults with a learning disability, autistic adults, people managing mental health conditions, people with a physical disability and people with a visual or hearing impairment. Most of the people living here are younger adults, and respite stays are available. With that mix under one roof, support has to be genuinely built around individuals rather than around a house routine. We take time to learn how each person communicates, particularly when they are anxious and words become harder to reach, what their sensory needs are and which parts of a week are reliably difficult. Where someone has a physical disability, a great deal of the quality of our care lies in the detail of how help is given rather than in whether it is given at all. Where sight or hearing is poor we make sure communication genuinely works rather than assuming it does. Support plans are written with the person in language that is theirs, and they change when life changes. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good.
