The team there understands how important this decision is for families, and the home aims to provide a warm, supportive environment where residents can feel comfortable and cared for. If you are exploring care options in the area, Swarthmore may be worth a closer look.

This residential care home provides personal and nursing care for up to 40 older adults, with 29 supported at the time of inspection. The accommodation is spread across two floors in one adapted building, and residents have access to extensive well-maintained gardens.

Inspectors found that medicines were not always managed in line with current best practice. Systems of governance and oversight were not sufficiently robust to identify issues relating to risk management and medicine management. Risk management was not always comprehensive and up to date, with concerns identified regarding people at identified risk.
