Residential Care in Wiltshire

At Ridgeway Rise Care Home, we offer exceptional residential care in Wiltshire alongside nursing care, dementia care, respite care and palliative care where comfort, dignity and companionship are at the heart of everyday life. Set in the vibrant town of Swindon, our modern, purpose-built home provides a warm and supportive environment for older adults who want to live independently, with the reassurance that 24-hour support is always nearby.

Whether you’re considering moving into care yourself or looking for a loved one, we understand that this is a big decision that requires lots of patience and consideration. Because of this, we take the time to get to know every resident beyond their care needs, so we can offer the kind of personalised support that helps people feel truly at home.

With beautifully designed spaces, a full programme of daily activities, and caring staff available around the clock, Ridgeway Rise offers more than just assisted living in Wiltshire; it offers peace of mind.

Find Out Why We’re Swindon’s Top Care Home

As a well-established care home in Wiltshire, we are known for our friendly, welcoming atmosphere and the high standards of care we provide. We are proud to offer tailored 24-hour residential support for older adults who no longer feel confident living alone but don’t require nursing care.

Every resident is unique, so we work closely with individuals and their families to create personalised care plans that reflect their routines, interests and health needs. Our experienced carers offer support with everything from medication to mobility with respect and discretion.

We are proud to be a trusted Wiltshire care home, offering exceptional residential care that balances independence with a true sense of community.

Continue Doing The Things You Love Most

The transition to residential care should never mean giving up the things that bring joy and purpose. Many of our residents at our Swindon care home find they rediscover old interests or pick up new ones in our friendly, supportive environment.

Each day at Ridgeway Rise is shaped around the people who live here. We offer a varied programme of activities and social events that reflect the interests of our residents, helping them to stay active, connected and engaged. From art and music to gentle exercise, group discussions, seasonal celebrations and visits from local entertainers, there is always something happening for those who wish to join in.

Residents are free to take part as much or as little as they like, with the flexibility to enjoy quieter moments or spend time with visitors in one of our many comfortable spaces. Mealtimes are another highlight of the day, with fresh, home-cooked meals served in our dining rooms, prepared by in-house chefs who cater for all dietary needs and personal tastes.

Things To Do in Wiltshire

Ridgeway Rise is ideally located for those who want to stay connected to their community and enjoy all that Wiltshire has to offer. The surrounding area is rich in accessible attractions and peaceful places to visit, many of which are especially enjoyable for older adults.

Just a short drive from our home, Dobbies Garden Centre in Swindon is a favourite destination for residents and their families. With beautiful plants, seasonal displays, a well-stocked gift shop and a relaxing café, it offers a lovely outing in all weathers. Many of our residents enjoy visiting for a cup of tea and a browse, particularly in the spring and summer months.

Mouldon Hill Country Park and Lake provides a peaceful setting for gentle walks or simply sitting by the water with a book or a picnic. The park is flat, easy to navigate and full of natural beauty throughout the year, which makes it a favourite destination for our residents.

Highworth Community Centre offers a variety of local events, social groups and classes, and is a great place to connect with others in the wider Swindon area. We regularly attend their dementia café, where our residents can sing, dance and reminisce alongside like-minded individuals.

The Wyvern Theatre is perfect for those who enjoy a touch of culture. Afternoon shows, classic films and live performances are regularly on offer, and we often arrange group trips so residents can enjoy a shared experience in a supported way.

There are also plenty of smaller attractions that residents enjoy, such as local cafés, charity shops and Swindon Museum and Art Gallery, which provides thoughtful exhibitions and a chance to explore local heritage. Whether it’s a peaceful afternoon or a lively community event, there is always something to look forward to when you reside at Ridgeway Rise.

Short-Term Support Tailored To You

If you aren’t quite ready to make the transition to full-time care or just need support for a few weeks, we also offer first-class respite care. Whether it’s following an illness or hospital stay, or simply to give a family carer a break, our respite residents receive the same high level of care and attention as our permanent residents.

A short stay at Ridgeway Rise can also be a helpful introduction to residential care. Some join us for a few weeks and later decide to move in full time, already knowing the home, the staff and the routines. We aim to make every stay as comfortable and welcoming as possible, with individualised care plans, full access to activities and the highest levels of support around the clock.

If you’re looking for a care home in Wiltshire that offers flexible, compassionate short-term care, our team is here to help guide you through your options. Get in touch today, we can’t wait to meet you.
