HARBOUR HOUSE CARE HOME

Harbour House is a residential care home for the elderly located in beautiful grounds with seaside and harbour views. We are registered to provide residential care without nursing for up to 35 residents. We were chosen as one of the top 5 finalists in the National Care Homes Awards for ‘Respect and Dignity’ and more recently in the top 3 finalists for the 3rd Sector Awards. Our home has been referred to as ‘the house of smiles’, ‘a little piece of paradise’ and ‘a retirement home with a real difference.’ Accommodation Harbour House consists of 28 individual rooms, 1 short breaks room and 2 ground floor flats. Every room at Harbour House has an en suite wet room. The rooms are built across 3 floors and are easily accessed by either a passenger lift or 2 stair lifts. All rooms include balcony views. Wi-Fi is accessible and available to all residents and their visitors. Catering Services All our residents are involved in the creation of menus, in particular those with specific dietary requirements. The kitchen still use an Aga and will only use fresh, local produce each and every day.

Our Philosophy We are committed to preserving and encouraging every resident’s privacy, individuality and choice by making Harbour House a ‘home from home.’ We strive to achieve this by; • empowering residents to have their privacy and time alone respected by all. • understanding that each resident is an ‘individual.’ • encouraging residents to make their own decisions whilst supporting the risks and outcomes. • assisting residents with their daily routines • ensuring residents basic rights are maintained. • avoiding a clinical approach and championing ‘fun.’ • promoting a resident driven rather than task driven approach to our daily routine.
