About
Ariya House in Barnsley, Yorkshire, is a residential rehabilitation home with 13 registered beds for people rebuilding skills after a brain injury. The main house has nine transitional flats, and the site also includes two bungalows that help residents prepare for independent living and two long-term apartments. The home aims for a comfortable, friendly setting that feels more like home than a clinic. Residents work on their goals with a team that includes neuro-psychology oversight, neuro-occupational therapy, neuro-physiotherapy, and speech and language therapy when needed. The home supports older people, younger adults and people with physical disabilities.
The Care Quality Commission rated Ariya House Outstanding overall in its 2023 report, and graded each of the five key questions (safe, effective, caring, responsive and well-led) as Outstanding. Some educational and peer support sessions are also open to non-residents on an agreed basis.
