About Us

We at Ravenstone Care and Rehabilitation Home offer residential care in the historic city of Carlisle, providing a warm and supportive place to call home for older people across Cumberland and the wider North West. Our home has been thoughtfully created to feel welcoming from the moment you step through the door, with dementia care, mental health support and respite stays all delivered under one roof.

Nestled within the CA postcode area of Carlisle, our setting benefits from the calm familiarity of this well loved Cumbrian city, whilst remaining easily reachable for family and friends travelling from across the region. We believe the surroundings a person lives in matter enormously, and we aim to create a comfortable, homely environment where residents can feel settled, safe and truly at ease.

Our specialisms mean that we are able to support a broad range of needs with genuine understanding. For those living with dementia, we take time to learn each resident's story, preferences and routines, so that daily life feels reassuring rather than unfamiliar. Our approach to mental health care is compassionate and person centred, recognising that emotional wellbeing is every bit as important as physical health. For families seeking a little breathing space, our respite care offers short term stays with the same warmth and attention as our permanent residents receive, giving loved ones peace of mind whilst carers rest or recover.

Day to day, this means residents are supported by a team who take the time to build meaningful relationships. Families can expect open communication, gentle encouragement of independence, and care that adapts as needs change over time. We understand that choosing a care home is one of the most significant decisions a family will ever make, and we consider it a privilege to be trusted with the wellbeing of your relative.

Our most recent inspection by the Care Quality Commission, carried out in September 2020, awarded us an overall rating of Good. This included Good ratings across the Safe, Effective, Caring and Responsive domains, reflecting the everyday standard of support our residents receive. The Well led domain was rated as Requires Improvement, and we view this feedback as a valuable opportunity to strengthen our leadership and governance, ensuring that the quality of care our residents deserve is matched by the quality of the systems that support it.

If you are exploring residential care, dementia support, mental health care or a respite stay in Carlisle, we would be delighted to hear from you. Please get in touch to arrange a visit, meet our team, and see for yourself the atmosphere we have built at Ravenstone Care and Rehabilitation Home. Whatever questions you have, however uncertain the journey may feel right now, we are here to listen, to guide, and to help you find the right path forward for someone you love.
