About Kolbe House

Kolbe House is a residential care home in the London borough of Ealing. We provide a home for older people who need support with daily living, and we offer respite stays for people needing care for a short period or whose usual carer needs a break. Moving into a care home is a considerable step, and the early weeks count for more than any account of the building. We use them to learn about the person rather than to settle them into our routine. What they did for a living. What they will not be talked into eating. What time breakfast has always happened. Whether they would rather have company or be left in peace with the radio. Small facts, and together they are most of what turns a room into somewhere that feels like home. Faith, culture and language matter a great deal to how somebody feels settled, and where those are important to a resident we make room for them properly rather than treating them as a preference to accommodate. The rest of the day belongs to the people living it: getting up when you choose, visitors when it suits you, keeping up with family, friends and whatever you have always done. We take the practical side seriously too, with food worth eating, medication handled carefully and prompt attention when somebody is unwell. At our most recent inspection the Care Quality Commission rated us good overall, and we keep asking residents and relatives what needs our attention.
