About Springbank Road

Springbank Road is a residential care home in Lewisham, and we support adults with learning disabilities, autistic people, and older people who need help with daily living. Respite stays are available as well. We are a household rather than a facility. People here have their own rooms and their own belongings, and a real say over how the day goes. The staff team is kept consistent, because support from people who know you well is quite different from support from whoever happens to be on shift. Changes are explained in advance, the shape of the week holds, and we take sensory comfort seriously, since noise, light and busyness often decide whether a day goes smoothly. Support covers personal care, medication, meals, money and the practical business of running a home, and wherever we can we do things alongside people rather than for them. A task done slowly by the person themselves is a better outcome than the same task done quickly by us. We are also interested in what happens beyond these walls. London has a great deal in it, and getting out to college, work, hobbies, friends and family is part of what we support rather than an afterthought. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. Families, social workers and anybody considering the house for somebody they support are welcome to visit and ask us anything at all.
