About Roseacres

Roseacres is a residential care home in Barnet, north London. We look after older people who need help through the day, including many living with dementia, people with a physical disability, and people who are blind, partially sighted, deaf or hard of hearing. Respite stays are available alongside permanent places. We will deal with our rating first, because you will find it anyway and burying it would be insulting. The Care Quality Commission last rated us requires improvement overall. We are not going to dispute it. An inspection records what was there on the day, and the work of putting it right is ours and nobody else's. There is an action plan, the people who commission care from us know where we have got to, and we would much rather take a family through it in person than offer a sentence designed to reassure. The daily work of the home carries on. Washing and dressing, medicines on time, meals that are hot and worth eating, and help to move about safely. For residents with dementia we keep routines steady and the surroundings familiar. Where sight or hearing has gone we attend to light, contrast, noise and how staff approach somebody. Come and look, ask the hard questions, and speak to families already here.
