About Alston House
Alston House supports older people and adults with complex needs through residential and dementia care, with respite also available. Care plans are developed with residents, families and healthcare professionals, reflecting routines, dietary requirements and personal preferences.
The home has en-suite rooms, accessible gardens and social spaces. Residents can join arts and crafts, exercise sessions and outings, with a minibus for planned outdoor activities. Chefs prepare meals around individual dietary needs, while a complimentary, no-obligation assessment helps identify the staffing and equipment required for a prospective resident. This process gives families a practical starting point when comparing care arrangements.
