About Oakfield at Yardley Hastings
Here at Oakfield at Yardley Hastings, we provide residential care for a wide range of people across our home in Northampton, West Northamptonshire. We welcome older adults, younger adults, and people living with dementia, learning disabilities, autism, and mental health needs. We also offer respite care for those who need a shorter stay, whether that is to give a family carer a break or to support someone through a period of change. We know that choosing a care home is one of the most significant decisions a person or family will ever make, and we do not take that lightly. From the moment someone gets in touch with us, we try to make the process as straightforward and reassuring as possible. We take time to understand each person before they arrive, so that we can support them well from day one rather than playing catch up. Our approach is built around the individual. People living with dementia, for example, have very different days and very different needs, and the same is true for someone with a learning disability or a mental health condition. We try to understand what matters to each person, what their routines look like, what brings them comfort, and what they enjoy. That understanding shapes how we support them every day. We recognise that family members and loved ones are an important part of someone's life here, and we encourage those connections to continue. We want people to feel at home, not just accommodated. As a care home that has not yet received a formal CQC rating, we are committed to being open about where we are and where we are heading. We welcome feedback, we ask questions, and we keep looking at how we can do better for the people who live with us.
