About
St Edmunds is a residential care home with 40 registered beds, close to the centre of Attleborough in Norfolk. It provides residential, dementia, respite and end-of-life care, and supports people living with dementia by building their daily routines around their interests and what matters to them.
Rooms include some with en-suite facilities, and each comes with a wardrobe, chest of drawers, small television and sink. Residents have several lounges and communal areas across two floors, along with an outdoor space, and the building has lift access and handrails throughout. Meals are prepared on site, with options for different dietary needs and IDDSI texture levels. A wellbeing team runs regular activities, with occasional outings when possible. The Care Quality Commission rated the home Good overall in its 2019 report, and also graded each of its five key questions (safe, effective, caring, responsive and well-led) as Good.
