About Little Croft Care Home

Little Croft Care Home is a residential care home in Bristol, providing a settled home for older people who need support with daily living. We are not a large place, and that shapes how things feel. Staff know everybody here properly, which means they notice when somebody is a bit off colour, a bit quieter than usual, or simply in the mood for company. Residents get up when they wake, eat when they are hungry and spend their days as they choose, while we look after the things that have become difficult, from personal care and medication to meals and laundry. A number of the people living with us have dementia. What helps there is consistency, unhurried time and knowing enough about someone's life to be genuine company. Relatives tell us plenty about the person before they arrive, and that knowledge does far more good than anything else we could put in place. We also offer respite stays, whether a family carer needs a planned break or someone needs looking after for a few weeks after being unwell. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. We are pleased with it, though what counts more is what residents and families tell us week by week. If you would like to see Little Croft, please ring and arrange a visit. Come and look round, meet the staff and ask whatever you want to ask.
