About Rosemount Home

Rosemount Home is a residential care home in Consett, County Durham. We provide a home for older people and we also support some younger adults, along with offering respite stays for those who need a short period of care or whose family carer needs a break. We would rather be judged on ordinary things than on anything grand. Knowing how everybody likes their tea. Remembering which chair belongs to whom. Understanding who wants company from breakfast onwards and who would much rather be left with a newspaper. Helping somebody up when they wake rather than when it suits a rota. We ask about these preferences, write them down and expect them to be followed, because that is most of what makes a place feel like home instead of an institution. Residents keep their own furniture and photographs and decide how their days run. Families are welcome whenever it suits them, and we keep in touch openly rather than only ringing when there is a problem. We would always rather raise something early than let a small worry grow into a complaint. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. It reflects reliable everyday practice, which is what most families are actually looking for, and we keep checking the detail rather than assuming it will hold on its own. If you are considering a care home in Consett for someone close to you, please come and look round and ask us anything you like.
