About Agnes and Arthur

Agnes and Arthur is a residential care home in Stoke-on-Trent, offering families in the area a local option for those who need support with day-to-day living. The team there understands how significant this decision can be, and the home aims to provide a comfortable, familiar environment where residents can feel at ease. For families looking for care closer to home, Agnes and Arthur represents a community-rooted option worth exploring.

Agnes and Arthur provides personal care for up to 50 people, though nursing care is not available. At inspection, 35 people were living at the home with diverse needs including dementia, mental health conditions, sensory or physical disabilities, and older age.

Staff generally managed medicines safely and infection prevention measures were in place, though there were minor lapses with protective equipment during some tasks that were corrected immediately. Documentation had some gaps that inspectors identified, though these had not caused harm. The registered manager responded to feedback about record-keeping, and the building required some improvements with action already underway to address these issues.
