About Morton Close

Morton Close is a residential care home in Keighley, Bradford, caring for older people. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is requires improvement. We would rather say that plainly at the start than let it surface later. It is not the rating we want and we are not going to talk around it. There is an improvement plan in place, we are working through it with our staff, the people who live here and their families, and anybody considering a move is entitled to ask exactly what is changing, who is accountable for it and what evidence there is that it is working. The life of the home carries on meanwhile and it matters to the people in it. That means help with washing, dressing, medication, meals and mobility given in a way that protects a person's dignity, days that belong to the people living them rather than to a rota, and staff who know somebody well enough to notice when they are not themselves. Respite stays are available. We would encourage families to visit, ask hard questions and judge our progress for themselves.
