About Butterfly House

Butterfly House is a nursing and residential setting in Weston super Mare in North Somerset. We care for older people and younger adults, including people who need nursing support, people living with dementia and people managing mental health conditions. Respite stays are available as well. Being able to offer both residential and nursing care under one roof matters more than it sounds. It means somebody whose health changes does not automatically have to move, and that a person can stay among people and surroundings they know at exactly the point that continuity counts for most. Families tell us this is often the thing that mattered to them in the end. We plan care person by person, because the people living here do not share one set of needs. What settles somebody with dementia is not what helps somebody living with a long standing mental health condition. So we spend our time on the particulars: how somebody likes to be addressed, what they can still do and would rather do themselves, what tends to make a difficult day and what heads it off. The day belongs to the people living it. When you get up, what you wear, what you eat, who visits and when. We knock, we ask, and we take no for an answer. At our most recent inspection the Care Quality Commission rated us good overall. We keep asking residents and relatives where we still fall short.
