About Nazareth House

Nazareth House in Northampton offers older people a settled, permanent home, and we also provide respite stays for those who need care for a short period or whose family carer needs a break. The help people need from us is mostly practical: getting up and dressed, a bath or a shower, moving about safely, medication given properly and on time, and meals worth looking forward to, with somebody nearby through the night. Beyond that, what matters is that this feels like somebody's home rather than a place they have been put. We have found that the residents who settle best are the ones who keep hold of their own habits, so we ask about those habits early and work around them instead of asking people to fit our routine. Our religious foundation is part of who we are rather than a condition of coming here. People of any faith or none are welcome, and what it means in practice is that we take somebody's spiritual life seriously alongside their physical needs, with a chapel and services for those who want them and no pressure on those who do not. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. Please ring and arrange to come and look round.
