The Glades

The Glades is a care home in the Dinnington area of Sheffield, conveniently located near local facilities and transport links. It is registered to support up to 12 people, with nine currently using the service. Although larger than typical domestic properties and exceeding current best practice guidance for home size, the impact on residents is mitigated by thoughtful building design that fits naturally into the residential area. Staff are discouraged from wearing uniforms or anything that identifies them as care workers when moving around with people, helping to maintain a homely atmosphere. The service has been developed according to principles and values supporting quality care provision.
