About Polesworth Group Pooley Heights
Here at Polesworth Group Pooley Heights, we provide residential care for a range of people in the heart of Tamworth, Warwickshire. Our home welcomes older adults, younger adults, and individuals living with a learning disability or autism, and we also offer respite care for those who need a short break or a period of additional support. We understand that choosing a care home is one of the most significant decisions a family can make, and we do not take that lightly. From the moment someone walks through our doors, we want them to feel at ease. Our team takes time to get to know each person properly, learning what matters to them, how they like their day to look, and what brings them comfort and enjoyment. Care here is shaped around the individual, not the other way around. Day to day life at Pooley Heights is built around genuine connection and routine that feels familiar rather than institutional. We work hard to make sure residents feel at home, with their preferences, histories and personalities guiding the way we support them. Families are always welcome, and we encourage them to be involved as much as they wish to be. We are proud that our most recent inspection by the Care Quality Commission resulted in an overall rating of Good. That reflects the commitment our whole team brings to their work every single day, and it gives families reassurance that the care provided here meets a strong and consistent standard. Whether someone is moving in permanently or staying with us for a short period of respite, they will be treated with the same warmth, respect and attention. If you would like to find out more about whether Pooley Heights could be the right fit for you or your loved one, we would be very happy to have a conversation.
