About Us

Westlands Care Home is a residential care home in Wellingborough, North Northamptonshire. We support a notably mixed group. Older adults live here, including many with dementia. So do people who have managed a mental health condition for years, people with a physical disability, people who are blind, partially sighted, deaf or hard of hearing, and some younger adults. Respite stays are available alongside permanent places. Running a home with that spread of need takes more thought than running one where everybody is alike, because no single routine will do. So we work out what each person's day ought to look like and then make the house fit around it rather than the other way round. One resident may want early meals and quiet evenings. Another may be out during the day and back late. Both are reasonable. Where sight or hearing has gone, an ordinary building starts working against a person, so we think about light, contrast, noise, signage and the way staff approach somebody. For residents with dementia we keep life predictable and surroundings familiar. Where a physical disability is involved the work is often about equipment, patience and allowing time. Our overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. Come and visit, and please talk to residents rather than only to us.
