About Housing 21 - Woodridge

Woodridge in Washington, part of Housing 21, provides care and support to people living in their own homes here. We work with older people, people living with dementia, people living with mental ill health, adults with a physical disability, people with visual or hearing impairment and younger adults. People here have their own front doors and their own tenancies, and that is the point. Our support is arranged around how somebody wants to live rather than around a timetable, and we keep asking whether we are doing more than is wanted, because independence slips away quietly if nobody is protecting it. Support covers personal care, help with medication, meals, assistance getting about, and the practical business of running a home. For some people it is a short call each morning. For others it is a good deal more, and because we are on site we can respond when something changes rather than waiting for the next scheduled visit. Having company close at hand while keeping your own space suits a lot of people, particularly those who have found living alone isolating but who do not want to give up their independence. Where sight or hearing is reduced, we adapt how we communicate. With dementia, familiar faces and a predictable day do most of the work. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. Please get in touch to talk things through.
