About Kingsley Rest Home
Kingsley Rest Home is a residential care home in Newcastle, Staffordshire, providing a settled home and short stays for adults who need support with everyday living. People come to us for different reasons. Sometimes keeping on top of a house had become too much. Sometimes an illness or a fall changed what was realistic. Whatever brought somebody here, our aim is that they come to think of this as home. Residents bring their own belongings, keep their own routines and decide how their days are spent, while staff look after what has become difficult, including personal care, medication, meals and laundry. A number of the people living with us have dementia. What helps most is keeping things familiar, giving people time to answer, and knowing enough about somebody's life to be real company rather than merely helpful. We support younger adults as well as older residents, and we treat everybody here as an individual with their own history and opinions. Respite stays are available, whether a family carer needs a planned break or somebody needs support for a few weeks after being unwell. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. If you would like to see Kingsley Rest Home, please ring and arrange a visit. Come and look round properly, meet the staff and ask us whatever you want to know.
