About Albemarle Rest Home
Albemarle Rest Home is a residential care home in Leamington Spa. We are home to older people who need support with daily life, including many living with dementia, and we welcome people for respite stays, whether to recover after illness or to give a family carer a proper break. We are small enough for everyone here to be known properly, and that shapes everything else. Our team notices when somebody eats less than usual, sleeps badly, seems low or becomes unsteady, and it gets acted on the same day rather than at a review in a month. Residents run their own days. When to get up, what to eat, whether to sit with others in the lounge or keep to their own room with their own things around them. Rooms hold people's own furniture and photographs, and nobody comes in without knocking. Visitors are welcome at any reasonable hour. For residents living with dementia, consistency helps more than anything else we can offer. We keep staffing settled, learn each person's history properly and use it to make sense of what they are telling us, and when somebody is distressed we look for the reason rather than trying to close it down. Health needs are managed alongside local GPs and community nurses. At our most recent inspection the Care Quality Commission rated us good overall. Please come and look round.
