About Greenways Rest Home

Greenways is a residential care home in Preston supporting older people, including those living with dementia. We offer permanent places and respite stays. A good day here looks unremarkable from the outside, and that is deliberate. Somebody gets up at the hour that suits them and is helped to wash and dress the way they have always done it. Breakfast is something they actually wanted. There is a newspaper, or the radio, or a conversation, depending on who they are. Somebody notices that a resident is quieter than usual and sits down with them rather than walking past. For people living with dementia, the constants do most of the good. Familiar faces, a predictable shape to the day, meals at the times the body expects, and staff who neither hurry nor correct. We build around what a person can still do rather than keeping a tally of what has gone. Families usually know the thing that turns a hard week around, so we ask and we listen. Respite stays give a family carer a break that is genuinely a break. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. Please come and visit on an ordinary day.
