About Us

Collingwood Care Home is in Bristol. We provide residential care for older people and offer respite stays alongside permanent places.

We keep things straightforward. People usually come to us because managing at home had become hard work, and what they want back is some ease. Meals they do not have to plan or cook. Help when washing and dressing has become a struggle. Somebody who notices when they are not themselves. Company when they want it and quiet when they do not.

Residents carry on running their own lives as far as they are able, choosing their routines, arranging their rooms and deciding how much of the day to spend downstairs. We encourage people to bring their own furniture and pictures, because a room that looks like yours makes settling in far easier than one that looks like anybody's.

The first few weeks matter a great deal and we do not rush them. We learn routines rather than imposing them, and we ask families to tell us about the person rather than only about their needs. Knowing somebody was always up at five, or has never liked a crowd, saves a lot of confusion later.

Family and friends are welcome at sensible hours and are part of the household rather than visitors to be managed.

Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. Please come and look round Collingwood and ask us the awkward questions.
