Meet The Manager
Jackie Smith is Registered Manager at Hylands House Care Home.
Jackie has worked for Hylands House for 34 years starting as a carer and working her way to the Registered Managers position. Jackie has over 20 years experience in dementia care, and has a good working relationship with other healthcare professionals in the area. She believes that a person centred approach is vital when caring for individuals living with dementia, and ensuring the environment is comfortable, welcoming and supportive for all who come to live or just to visit us.
Experience the warmth and care of Hylands House Care Home, a premier residential care home nestled in the heart of Stratford-upon-Avon. The home offers high-quality residential care, short-term respite care and sensitive end-of-life care. The dedicated team specialise in dementia care and has extensive expertise in understanding and caring for those living with this condition.
While many individuals may initially prefer the familiarity of their own homes, circumstances sometimes necessitate alternative options. Hylands House strives to create a homely environment within the premises, which have been thoughtfully adapted to accommodate the unique needs of our residents.
Hylands House has a great reputation within the local community and surrounding areas and this is mainly due to its small size, homely feel of the care home and the outstanding level of care provided. Hylands House works with several local authorities, Warwickshire County Council, Northamptonshire County Council, Solihull County Council to name a few and also with privately paying residents. Hylands House not only caters for permanent placements but also for respite stay.

Inside, there are five different sitting areas, including a conservatory, outside which is a small sheltered patio. The garden is easily accessible by a lift, so there is no need for people or wheelchairs to negotiate slopes or steps. There is a wheelchair-usable path and garden benches for sitting out on sunny days. In summer there is always a special garden fete for the residents, their friends and families when we get out all the picnic tables, garden umbrellas and the pergola and we have stalls and some live music. Green-fingered residents may enjoy pottering in the garden if they wish, planting out or dead heading. |
