About Mountjoy Road

Mountjoy Road is a residential care home in Huddersfield for adults with a learning disability and autistic adults. We are a house on an ordinary street rather than an institution, and being small is the point. Staff get to know the people they support properly, and the household runs around the people living in it instead of around a rota. People have their own rooms and their own belongings, a real say in what gets cooked and what happens at the weekend, and they decide who comes to visit. Support is agreed with each person. Some need help with personal care and health needs. Others mainly want somebody alongside them so that a demanding world becomes manageable, and support to do things for themselves rather than have them done. We expect people to take on more over time rather than settle into being looked after. For autistic residents especially, predictability does most of the work. Routines that hold, clear information, honest notice before anything changes and genuine choice prevent far more distress than any reaction after the event. Where somebody is having a hard time, we look first at what is being asked of them. Huddersfield is on the doorstep and getting out into it is part of the ordinary week here. Respite stays are available. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. Please contact us to arrange a visit.
