About Tree Tops
We are Tree Tops, a residential care home in Burton on Trent. We support older people and younger adults, including adults with learning disabilities, autistic adults and people with a visual or hearing impairment. Respite stays are available. We plan around individuals rather than around a single routine. The people living here have quite different notions of a good week. Some want to be busy, with work, college, sport or regular groups and plenty of getting out into the town. Others want quiet and a rhythm they can rely on, and where change is unsettling we keep things steady and prepare carefully for anything unusual. This is their home, so decisions about food, decoration and how time is spent belong to the people living in it. Communication gets proper attention too, because how somebody prefers to be given information is the basis of everything else rather than a detail to be settled later. We have not yet received an overall rating from the Care Quality Commission. Until we have, we would encourage families and commissioners to ask us detailed questions about staffing, training and how support is planned here. Please contact us if you would like to look round.
