About Gateholme

Gateholme is a residential care home in Wakefield, offering a familiar and homely setting where adults can feel comfortable and supported. The team there understands how important it is for families to find a place that feels right, and the home aims to provide a warm, caring environment for residents. If you are exploring options for a loved one in the Wakefield area, Gateholme may be worth getting to know a little better.

This residential care home provides accommodation and personal care for up to 48 adults, supporting people with learning disabilities, autistic people, those with mental health needs, and people living with dementia. While most staff demonstrated awareness of risks associated with people's care, inspectors found that risks were not always consistently assessed, monitored, or managed to ensure people were safe. More comprehensive guidance and documentation were needed to strengthen safeguarding procedures.

Inspectors also identified concerns regarding infection prevention and control standards, particularly in kitchenettes and bathroom areas, though the provider took prompt action to address these issues. Medicines were predominantly managed safely and administered as prescribed, though some areas for improvement were noted.
