About Us

Magnolia House is a residential care home in Sandown on the Isle of Wight, providing a permanent home for adults who need care and support with everyday life. We aim for a household where people are known properly rather than looked after efficiently.

Our care is residential rather than nursing. We help with personal care, medication, meals, mobility and company, and we bring in community health professionals when something more clinical is needed. Many of our residents live with dementia, and we rely on the quiet things that genuinely help: familiar staff who know a person's history, a routine that stays where it is, food that is recognisable and reassurance repeated as often as it is wanted. We also care for residents with physical disabilities, adjusting how we help with mobility so that independence is kept wherever it can be, and we support younger adults, planning their interests and routines on their own terms.

Respite stays are available, giving family carers a real break and letting a prospective resident spend time here before any permanent decision is taken.

We would far rather be judged on what you see on an ordinary day than on anything we write about ourselves, so please visit, speak to the people who live here and ask us the questions that matter to you.
