About Elizabeth House
Elizabeth House is a residential care home in Stoke on Trent providing care for older people, including those living with dementia. Our concern is that people are known rather than merely looked after. We take time at the start to learn about somebody's life, their family and their habits, and we use that to shape their days here. People choose when to get up and go to bed, where to spend their time and how much company they want. Staff help with washing and dressing, with moving about safely, with medication and with eating and drinking well, and they do it without hurry, because being rushed is one of the things older people mind most. For those living with dementia we keep routines steady and surroundings familiar, and we work at understanding what somebody is communicating when words have become difficult. Meals are cooked here and there is a real choice. We know the people who live here well enough to notice when something is not right, and we involve the GP early. Respite and short stays can be arranged for families needing a break or people recovering after illness. If you would like to look round, please telephone us and we will arrange a time.
