About Crispin Court Care Home
Crispin Court is a residential care home in Stafford. We support older people and younger adults, and our experience covers dementia, mental health needs, physical disabilities, and sight and hearing loss. Respite stays are part of what we do. With that range of people, the only approach that works is to build round individuals. Before anybody moves in we spend time with them and whoever they want involved, learning how they like their days to go, what they manage perfectly well themselves, where help would be welcome and what they would rather we left alone. That becomes the plan, and it is theirs to change. Help with washing, dressing, mobility, medication and health appointments is given as the person has asked and recorded carefully, so it happens the same way whoever is on shift. Rooms and equipment get genuine thought, because independence often turns on whether a thing is within reach. Where there is sensory loss we attend to lighting, contrast, clear signs and hearing aids that have actually been checked. With dementia we lean on knowing somebody well, gathering their history with their family and keeping it current, so staff respond to the person rather than to the behaviour in front of them. Our most recent inspection by the Care Quality Commission rated us outstanding overall. We were pleased, and we read it mainly as a sign that the ordinary daily things were being done properly and consistently.
