About Woodlands Quaker Care Home

We are a residential care home in Wolverhampton with Quaker roots, providing a home for older people and younger adults who need help with daily living, including those living with dementia. Our approach owes something to where we come from. We try to treat the people who live here as equals rather than as recipients, to listen more than we talk, and to leave room for quiet. Residents keep their own rooms, belongings and routines as far as we can manage, and they decide how much they want to be part of whatever is happening in the house. People of any faith or none are equally welcome here. Dementia care, in our experience, rests on knowing the person. We ask families to tell us about working life, children, music, faith and old habits, because that knowledge is what allows a member of staff to reassure somebody who is anxious or cannot place where they are. Meals are cooked here and we pay attention when somebody would rather have something different. Family and friends are welcome whenever they would like to come, and we would always rather a concern was raised early than saved up. Respite stays are available as well as permanent places. Our most recent inspection by the Care Quality Commission rated us good overall. Please come and see the home for yourself before deciding anything.
