About Jasmine House

Jasmine House is a residential care home in Alton, Hampshire, supporting adults with a learning disability or autism and adults with physical disabilities. It is a home rather than a placement, and the household is arranged around the people living in it. Support here is individual. It can include help with personal care, medication, cooking, laundry, managing money and getting to appointments, and it takes in the parts of life that matter just as much: friendships, going out, keeping up an interest, being useful, having plans of your own. We communicate in whatever way suits each person, and we help people move about safely without taking over from them. We give people the time to do things themselves even when stepping in would be quicker, and where somebody wants more independence support is planned to withdraw gradually as they grow into it. Most of the people we support are younger adults, and we take care not to assume that shared circumstances mean shared wishes. Respite stays are available too, giving family carers a real break and letting somebody try the house first. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is outstanding. We are pleased about that, and clear that it describes what was found at one point and has to be lived up to every day since. Please come and visit.
