About Ash View House

Ash View House is a residential care home in South Gloucestershire, near Bristol, supporting adults who have a learning disability, autistic adults and people with mental health needs, including younger adults. We also offer respite stays for people who need support for a shorter period. The people who live here call it home, and our job is to help each of them live the life they choose within it, with as much independence as they want and as much support as they need. We help with personal care where it is wanted, with cooking, laundry and shopping, with medication and appointments, and with managing money and correspondence. We also support people to get out locally, to keep up the activities they enjoy and to stay close to family and friends. Communication and routine sit at the centre of the work. Learning how a person asks for help, how they show that they are unhappy and what settles them when a day goes badly matters more than any written policy, so we take time over it and write plans in a form the person can actually use. Where someone wants more independence, we work towards it at their pace rather than ours. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is outstanding. We are proud of that and clear about what it means. It raises what we have to deliver on an ordinary day, not just when someone is looking.
