About Springfield House Residential Home
Springfield House Residential Home is a care home in Wolverhampton, on the Staffordshire border. We look after older people, including many living with dementia, and adults with physical disabilities, and we take respite bookings for people who need a stay of a few weeks. We try to keep this a home rather than a facility. Rooms belong to the people in them, complete with their own furniture and photographs. Meals are meant to be enjoyed. The day has a shape without becoming a timetable, and nobody is pushed into joining anything, though there is usually something worth joining. With dementia, steadiness does most of the good. Familiar faces, a predictable routine, calm surroundings and time given rather than rushed. We learn about somebody's earlier life so that conversation has somewhere to go. Where a person with a physical disability wants to keep doing things for themselves, we make sure equipment and layout support that rather than getting in the way, because independence lost to well meaning haste is hard to recover. Our staff know the people here, which is how changes in health get picked up early and taken to the GP or district nurse promptly. Families are welcome whenever suits them and are involved in reviews and decisions. Our most recent inspection by the Care Quality Commission rated us good overall. Please ring if you would like to look round.
