About Meadow House

Meadow House is situated in the Georgian market town of Swaffham in Norfolk. It is a purpose built, single storey home that was opened in 1989 and has built up an enviable reputation in both the local and wider community for outstanding care and is rated Outstanding by the Care Quality Commission. The home has a lovely mix of residents ranging from 20-82 years.

Extended recently, it has been sympathetically designed to offer a range of single rooms, a welcoming reception area, large lounges, dining room and a separate Activities Centre, all of which are available for our residents and their guests to enjoy. There’s lots of laughter within the home and residents are always the number one priority.

We’re also passionate about keeping our homes and residents at the heart of the local community, working closely with community groups, schools and other community connections to keep residents involved in local activities.

Some of our regular activities include:

  • Bingo
  • Karaoke
  • Arts and craft
  • MS charity week
  • Trips to town
  • Family events
  • Church services
  • Local school visits
  • Theme days
  • Pampering sessions
Dining

Dining is an essential part of the care package we provide to our residents, not only from a general health and wellbeing perspective, but we believe residents should be able to enjoy eating what they want, when they want.

Our chef will meet anyone’s needs and we have a slimming club in-house for those residents who may look to lose weight. Residents’ requests are met and the chef has lots of new ideas, providing buffets and cakes for special occasions.

Our chef fully assesses all dietary needs, including likes and dislikes, allergies. special diets, through to preferred portion sizes and mealtimes. Our catering team prides itself on producing food of the highest quality, using local suppliers to create fresh, homemade dishes each day.

Visitors to the area can enjoy a visit to the garden centre, historical landmarks and a variety of local pubs. The nearby towns of Castle Acre and Kings Lynn offer plenty more attractions.

Health and wellness

The health and wellness of our residents is very important and we work closely in partnership with local health and wellness professionals to ensure every resident is able to lead a full and enriched life.

        Terms and Conditions

        If you will be funding your stay privately, please click here to view our Resident Contract of Admission for Self-Funders.

        If a Local Authority may be funding your stay, please click here to view our Resident Terms and Conditions for a Local Authority Funded Stay.

        Your Local Authority might locate/suggest a care home that is/your Local Authority believes is suitable to meet your care and support needs, that is of a lower cost than our required weekly fee. In this circumstance the Local Authority is unlikely to agree to fully fund your stay if you choose to select our care home instead of the less expensive establishment it has sourced for/suggested to you. In this event, private ‘top-up’ payments will be necessary in order to address the shortfall between our weekly fee and the weekly fee funding available from/offered by your Local Authority.

        An additional top-up payment will almost certainly be required if you select, or we only have available, a non-standard room in the care home and your Local Authority is only prepared to pay for a standard room. If you select, or we only have available, a non-standard room in the care home, the additional cost for that non-standard room will have to be met by top-up payments.

        Owing to the fact that your financial means will have been assessed by your Local Authority, it is very likely that the Local Authority will require private top-up payments to be made by a third party from their own funds. Although the Guidance to the Care Act 2014 states that a Local Authority ought itself collect top-up payments, some require us to collect such payments on their behalf. Should the Local Authority require us to collect top-up payments, we would issue the third party who is to fund the top-up with a contractual agreement for their review and signature.

        If a Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) may be funding your stay, please click here to view our Resident Terms and Conditions for a CCG Funded Stay.
