About Clover House

Clover House is a care home in Morecambe. We provide residential care for older people and younger adults, including adults with a learning disability, autistic adults and people managing a mental health condition. Respite stays are available alongside permanent places. Stability is the main thing we try to offer. A number of the people who come here have moved between placements more often than anyone should, and each move undoes work that took months to build. So we plan on the basis that people are staying, we do not treat a difficult week as grounds for reconsidering, and we are careful not to promise what we cannot sustain. Living here is meant to be ordinary. People have their own rooms and routines, come and go, use the town and make their own decisions, including some we might not have chosen for them. Where somebody is working towards more independence, we put real effort behind it. Consistency counts for more than enthusiasm with most of the people we support. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. If you are considering a placement here, please visit and ask us whatever matters to you.
