About Norley Hall Care Home
Norley Hall Care Home provides residential care in Wigan for older people, including a good number of people living with dementia. We offer permanent places and shorter respite stays. We try to run the home at the pace of the people in it. People get up when they wake, eat what they like, and spend the day as they want to. The help covers washing and dressing, medication, meals cooked here, mobility and all the small practical things that become difficult alone, given in a way that leaves somebody their privacy and their dignity. Dementia care here rests on steadiness rather than on any particular method. Familiar staff, a predictable shape to the day, and rooms that are easy to make sense of do more to settle a person than anything else available to us. We take the view that behaviour is nearly always communication, and the useful question is what someone is trying to tell us. Wigan is home for most people living here and we keep those threads going, with visits from local groups, trips out and family welcome whenever they want to come. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. Please ring us if you would like to look round.
