About
Ashmeade Residential Home is a privately run residential home for older people in Burnley, Lancashire, with 18 registered beds. It has been operating for 34 years and aims to feel like a domestic setting rather than an institution, with lounges and shared areas designed for relaxing. Bedrooms are furnished to a good standard, and residents are encouraged to personalise them with photographs and keepsakes. Some rooms may not suit people with severe physical disabilities, so families are advised to view any vacant room and discuss their needs with the manager before admission.
Meals are served in a dining room or, if preferred, in the resident's own room. Staff prepare food in a well-equipped kitchen, menus run on a three-week rotation with seasonal produce, and special diets are catered for. The home offers structured activities alongside quiet periods, a regular Christian service, monthly outings and a local social club. The Care Quality Commission rates the home Good overall, with Good grades across all five key questions.
