About Warrington Residential and Dementia Care

We are a residential and dementia care home in Corsham in Wiltshire, providing a home for older people who need support with daily living. Respite stays are available for people needing care for a short period or whose usual carer needs a break. Coming to live in a care home is a significant thing to do, and the first weeks matter more than any account of the building. We spend them learning about the person rather than settling them into our routine. What they did for a living, what they cannot be doing with, what time they have always had their breakfast, whether they would rather be in company or left in peace with the radio on. Dementia care rests on patience and a recognisable day. We avoid springing things on people, we keep routines familiar, and when somebody is distressed we go looking for the cause rather than simply trying to settle them. Relatives very often know exactly what helps, and we would far rather be told at the beginning than work it out across six months. The rest of the day belongs to the people living it, and we take the practical side seriously too: food worth looking forward to, medication handled carefully, quick response when somebody is unwell, and plain conversations with families when things change. At our most recent inspection the Care Quality Commission rated us good overall.
