About

Laxton Hall is a residential care home registered for 30 residents, set between Laxton and Corby in Northamptonshire. Its 17th-century building is Grade II listed and has been converted for residential care while keeping its original architecture. The home sits in 85 acres of land, including gardens.

The Sisters of Mary Immaculate staff the home, with Polish-speaking members who have experience caring for older people, including those affected by the Second World War. Admission is for people of Polish origin over 65 who previously lived in England and speak Polish as a first language. The Care Quality Commission rated the home Good overall in its 2024 report, with Good ratings across all five key questions.

What inspectors found

CQC: Good

Report published 31 January 2024 · Last inspected 9 January 2024

Inspectors found that residents at this older-people home for up to 30 people, including some living with dementia, lived within a Polish community where their culture, religion and traditions were practised every day. Staff spoke English and Polish, which helped people understand their risk assessments and access healthcare appointments. Relatives and people were involved in care planning, and staff were described as knowing people well.

Strengths noted
  • Daily life reflects residents' Polish culture, religion and traditions, and food meets their physical and cultural needs.
  • Staff provide risk information in English and Polish, and staff recognise when people are unwell and refer them to healthcare professionals promptly.
  • Safe recruitment, safeguarding training and a registered manager who reviews incidents, complaints and accidents to prevent repeats.
  • People are supported to make choices, with their privacy and dignity respected and their independence encouraged.
