About Us

Blair House Care Home is a nursing home in Southport supporting adults living with mental health conditions, including many younger adults. Respite stays are available as well as permanent places. Having registered nurses on site means a person's health needs can be met here rather than becoming the reason for another move at the point when they have finally found somewhere they feel settled. Much of our work is about steadiness. People here have their own room and their own routine, and staff who know them well enough to notice when something is shifting before it becomes a crisis. Support with medication and appointments is reliable without being heavy handed, and there is practical help with the ordinary business of a week where that is what somebody needs. What we try to avoid is a place that feels like a ward. People are asked about how the house runs rather than told, which counts for a great deal when so much else has already been decided for them. We work closely with community mental health teams, general practitioners and social workers. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good.
