About Roseacres

Roseacres is a residential care home in Barnet, offering older people and their families a familiar, community-rooted setting to call home. The team there understands how significant this decision is, and the home aims to provide a warm, supportive environment where residents can feel comfortable and cared for. For families in and around Barnet, it can be reassuring to know that a local option is available, close to the people and places that matter most.

Roseacres accommodates up to 35 older people and those living with dementia in an adapted two-floor home with lift access. The home features en-suite rooms for some residents, communal bathrooms, dining and living areas, and a large garden. At inspection, 29 people were using the service.

While residents and relatives reported receiving safe care, inspectors found that risks associated with people's care and health were not always managed appropriately. Many risk assessments lacked clear guidance on how to mitigate identified risks effectively.
