About Woodbury View
Woodbury View is a small residential home in Worcester, and it is home to adults with learning disabilities and to autistic adults. We also offer respite stays, planned well in advance so that a short stay means arriving somewhere familiar rather than somewhere strange. We run this as the residents' house. People choose how their bedrooms look, they have a genuine say in the shopping and the meals, and they get involved in cooking, gardening and looking after the place as much as they want to. Support covers personal care where it is needed, medication, health appointments and money, and it covers getting out to whatever somebody is interested in, whether that is work, a course, a club, a place of worship or a regular visit to family. Where we put most of our effort is understanding each person properly. Some people here use speech, some use signs, symbols or a device, and some tell us what they need through their behaviour. We take time to learn it, we write it down so that it survives a change of shift, and we take advice from families and from health colleagues who have known somebody far longer than we have. Where somebody needs things to be predictable, we keep them predictable and explain changes before they arrive. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. Please arrange to visit.
