About Langley Park Care Home

Langley Park Care Home is a residential care home near Durham, providing older people and younger adults with a comfortable place to live and support close at hand. We run as a household rather than an institution, and the day belongs to the people living it. We support residents living with dementia and people living with a physical disability. For residents living with dementia we keep routines familiar, explain changes before they happen, work at each person's pace and look for the cause when somebody is unsettled. Where a resident has a physical disability, our aim is to remove the obstacle rather than narrow what they do. Our team helps with personal care, medication, mobility and meals, and equally with conversation, company, fresh air and music for those who want them. Rooms are personalised and relatives are welcome whenever they can come rather than at set visiting times. Respite stays are available for people needing care for a short period. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is Good. If you are looking at care homes in County Durham, please come and see us at an ordinary time of day and ask us whatever you like.
