About
Rosehill House is a residential care home in Whitehaven, Cumberland, Cumbria, with 23 registered beds. It provides residential care and dementia support, and it also cares for older people, adults with physical disabilities and people with sensory impairment. The home says it wants residents to see it as their own home rather than simply a place where they receive care. It also says residents and their relatives are encouraged to take an active part in planning and decisions about individual needs, and that it aims to protect dignity and as much independence as each person's health and mobility allow.
The Care Quality Commission rated Rosehill House Requires Improvement overall in its 2025 report. It graded the home Good for effective, caring and responsive care, and Requires Improvement for safe care and for well-led care. The home's website also offers a video that gives a quick overview of life there.
