About Woodcroft
Woodcroft is a residential home in Reigate, Surrey. We support adults with a learning disability, autistic adults, and adults with a physical disability. Most of the people here are younger adults, and we offer respite stays alongside permanent places. We should deal with our rating first, because you will find it anyway. The Care Quality Commission last rated us requires improvement overall. We are not going to dispute it or bury it. An inspection records what was there on the day, and the work of putting it right is ours. There is an action plan, the people who commission placements here know exactly where we have reached with it, and any family considering us is welcome to go through the detail with the manager. What we are trying to be is a home rather than an institution. People have their own rooms and their own belongings and a real say in how a week looks. Support plans are agreed with the person and written in language the person can read. Where a learning disability sits alongside a physical disability, the practical side takes real planning, including equipment, access, transport and the time to let somebody do a thing themselves. Come and visit, ask the uncomfortable questions, and talk to the people who live here as well as to us.
