About Samuel Close 2

Samuel Close 2 is a small residential care home in the Greenwich area of London. We support older people and younger adults, including people with a learning disability, people who are autistic and people with a visual or hearing impairment, and we offer respite stays. Being small means the people who live here are known as individuals rather than managed as a group. Support is worked out person by person, and the week belongs to the person: a course, a job, regular time with family, a favourite trip out, or simply a settled routine that nobody disturbs. Our team learns how each person communicates, including those who do not use speech, and pays attention to the signs that somebody is uncomfortable, bored or unwell. For residents with a sensory impairment, we think carefully about lighting, noise and how we approach somebody, because those details do a great deal for confidence. People choose their own food, keep their own space and habits, and are supported to do as much for themselves as they wish. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. If you would like to look round or discuss a placement or a respite stay, please get in touch and we will arrange a convenient time.
