About Hemmet House
At Hemmet House, we provide residential care for adults in the heart of Carshalton, Sutton. We support people with physical disabilities and also offer respite care for those who need a short break or some additional help during a period of change or recovery. We are proud to hold a Good rating from the Care Quality Commission, which reflects the effort our whole team puts in to making sure everyone who lives here feels safe, respected and genuinely at home. That rating matters to us, but what matters more is that the people we support feel comfortable telling us when something is not right, and that we listen when they do. Day to day life at Hemmet House is shaped by the people who live here. We take time to understand what each person enjoys, what they find difficult and what they want their life to look like. Care is not a one size fits all thing, and we do not treat it that way. Whether someone is with us on a longer term basis or staying for a shorter respite period, we want them to feel that this is a place where they are known and looked after as an individual. Families and loved ones are always welcome, and we see them as an important part of the wider support around each resident. We are happy to talk through any questions or concerns at any time, not just during formal reviews. If you are looking for residential care in the Carshalton and Sutton area, whether for yourself or someone close to you, we would be glad to hear from you.
