About Greensleeves Care Home
Greensleeves Care Home is a residential care home in Crawley, West Sussex. We look after older people who need help through the day, including many living with dementia, people who have managed a mental health condition for years, and people who are blind, partially sighted, deaf or hard of hearing. Respite stays are available as well as permanent places. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is outstanding. We are proud of it and also a little wary of it, because a rating describes a few days of scrutiny and what matters is the other three hundred and sixty. So we treat it as a standard to hold rather than a thing to advertise. What we think we get right is mostly unglamorous. The same staff, year after year, who know which chair a person prefers and which hymn they know all the words to. Meals that are hot and actually wanted. Nobody hurried through a wash. Where sight or hearing has gone, attention to light, contrast, noise and the way we approach somebody, because a home that is hard to read shrinks a person's confidence. We want relatives in the building often rather than confined to visiting hours, and we would rather be told promptly when we have got something wrong. Come and see us on an ordinary day, unannounced if you prefer.
