About Crofton Springs

Crofton Springs is a residential care home in Cheltenham caring for older people and younger adults, including those living with dementia and people with a physical disability. Our aim is a home where people are known properly rather than simply looked after. That takes staff who stay long enough to learn somebody's history, habits and preferences, and care that is planned with the person rather than written about them. Help is given with washing and dressing, with transfers and moving safely, with medication and with eating and drinking well. For those living with dementia we keep the day predictable and the surroundings familiar, adjust how we communicate rather than expecting the person to adjust to us, and pay attention to what somebody is telling us when words are no longer reliable. The home is somewhere people live. Rooms are personalised with belongings that matter, meals are cooked here with a real choice, there is company for those who want it and quiet for those who do not, and visitors are welcome. Respite and short stays can be arranged, which suits families needing a break and people wanting to try the home before deciding. If you would like to look round, please telephone us and we will arrange a visit.
