About Rectory Court
Person-centred residential care at Rectory Court is designed for older people, including those living with dementia or physical disabilities. The Blackheath home also offers short-stay respite and convalescent breaks, giving people time to settle into its community without making an immediate permanent decision.
Residents have access to activities, dining and shared spaces in a home designed around comfort and companionship. A respite stay can include 24-hour support and tailored residential, nursing or specialist dementia care, although nursing support for homes without nursing registration is arranged with local district nursing teams.

Questions families ask
Can I try Rectory Court with a respite stay?
Yes. A respite stay can provide a trial of care home life, giving guests time to settle in, build friendships and experience the community before making a permanent decision.
How do they decide whether nursing care is needed?
The care team establishes this through a pre-admission care needs assessment. Where a home is not registered for nursing, the team can work with local district nurses to support many nursing needs.
How much does Rectory Court cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Rectory Court for its weekly fee. As a guide, Lewisham council paid on average £961 a week for a residential care place for people aged 65 and over in 2024-2025, against £982 across England (GOV.UK adult social care finance report). People who pay for their own care are usually charged more than councils pay.
