About Marina Care Home
Marina is a residential care home in Southport. Those living here include older people, many living with dementia, people managing mental health conditions, people with physical disabilities and people living with sight or hearing loss. We also offer respite stays. Most of what makes a care home good happens quietly and every day. Food people want to eat. Being helped to the bathroom without waiting. Laundry that comes back. Knowing the name of whoever is on this evening. Somebody noticing that you have been quieter than usual for a few days. We put our effort there rather than into anything that reads impressively at a distance. Where a resident communicates differently, whether because of a sensory impairment or for any other reason, we deal with that properly rather than half doing it, since a great deal else depends on getting it right. For residents with physical disabilities we plan the practical side around what somebody can still manage themselves rather than what is quickest for us, because independence given up for convenience is rarely handed back. Our overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. Good is not the same as finished, and we try to remember that.
