People at the heart of care in Whitby
Residential care with a difference
Since taking on Peregrine House in 1995, owners Dr Kevin and Teresa O’Sullivan have inspired our team to earn its reputation as the leading care home on the Yorkshire coast.
Peregrine House remains entirely independent and is not part of a large care home group. That means we can concentrate on excelling at providing personalised care without the bureaucratic hindrance of a large organisation.
We lovingly tend residents requiring a permanent home, a period of convalescence or respite care in this wonderful Whitby setting.
Accommodation
Peregrine House is a moderately sized care home, offering 35 single rooms, all with private en-suite wet rooms and central heating
Activities
Everyone enjoys our varied daily entertainment and activity programmes that cater for a variety of tastes and interests
Dining
Staff and residents alike enjoy the varied and well prepared dishes served by our chefs, with residents influencing the content of the menu
Transparent fees
We promise fair fees based on high quality comprehensive care that represents excellent value for money
Dementia friendly
Peregrine House staff are trained in dementia care and we welcome residents with this distressing condition. We ensure these vulnerable people are treated with the utmost dignity and respect while keeping them safe and loved.
Our Dementia Champion is always on hand to make sure Peregrine House excels in being dementia friendly. Together we continually review the home’s environment, adapting where necessary to keep it is as safe as it can be for your loved one.
Prioritising people
Residents, staff, visitors, suppliers – people are what make Peregrine House special. Central to everything that we value, we believe in treating people well, with respect and the utmost care.
Our residents are not commodities, and our staff not just a means to an end. We are a caring community that works in a genuine spirit of love and friendship. Our residents join us for life, and employees for a career not a job.
Our philosophy of care
The culture here is to care at all times for our residents in the same way that we would like to be treated ourselves.
CARE at Peregrine House stands for:
Compassionate
Appropriate
Respectful
Empathetic
