About Edgemont House

Edgemont House provides residential care near Bristol for older people and younger adults, and we also take planned respite stays. We are a home rather than an institution, and most of what we do is ordinary. Helping people wash and dress, seeing that medicines are taken properly, cooking meals people actually want to eat, keeping an eye on health, and making sure nobody spends the day waiting for somebody to speak to them. Residents get up when they choose, spend their time as they wish, keep their own things around them and have visitors whenever it suits. The small things are what people notice. A familiar face on shift, tea made the way you like it, being asked rather than told, and somebody spotting that you are quieter today than yesterday. Staff who stay long enough to know those things prevent far more problems than any policy does, so we put real effort into keeping our team settled and well supported. Respite stays are genuinely useful. A planned stay gives a family carer proper rest, and it lets somebody find out what we are like without committing to anything longer. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. We ask residents and relatives regularly how we are doing, and we act on what they tell us.
