Situated in a prime location on the approach into Portishead and with easy access to the picturesque marina development, gentle waterfront strolls and the calming sights and sounds of the harbour are a feature of home life. You will often find us out and about in Portishead, enjoying its human scale and coastal ammenities.

Activities at Harbour Care Home

At Harbour Care Home, we believe life should be lived to the fullest, and our activities reflect that philosophy. We prioritize creating a joyful and stimulating environment for our residents. From engaging reminiscence sessions that spark fond memories to shared crafting, games, gentle walks, and entertainment. There is something everyone.

Community is at the heart of our approach. We actively foster connections with the outside world, facilitating accessible swimming days at the local pool and building strong relationships with nearby schools and businesses. But perhaps our most cherished activity is our day trips out to the beautiful sights across Somerset. These excursions are more than just outings; they're opportunities for our residents to experience the beauty of our region, breathe fresh air, and create new memories.

We understand the importance of staying connected to the world around us. These trips and activities are vital for promoting well-being and enriching the lives of our residents. They play a crucial part in building a vibrant and companionable atmosphere that benefits all of those living and working at Harbour.

Our Ethos

Personalized care is a key aspect, with staff members selected for their kindness, patience and empathy. Residents are involved in the staff interview process and our residents committee is also involved in the running of day to day services within the home. Harbour is run to address each and every residents unique background and preferences. Activities are designed to evoke memories and connect residents to their past, and we invest a great deal of time in getting to know residents personal stories and circumstances. Family members play a vital role in this process.

Our Care Services to the Elderly

At Harbour Care Centre, we understand the importance of specialized care to supplement the residential care for privately funded individuals that we offer. For those requiring dementia care in Portishead, our dedicated team is trained to provide personalized support, creating a safe and stimulating environment that caters to individual needs. We prioritize dignity and respect, ensuring our residents feel comfortable and secure.

Harbour Care Centre is more than just a care home; it's a place where residents can thrive, surrounded by the beauty of Portishead and the support of a caring team.

Wayne Price

Meet the Manager

Having 14 years of experience in the health/social care sector provides me with the necessary grounding and knowledge to embark on this exciting journey at Harbour Residential. I have been a qualified nurse since 2007, completing my training at the University of the West of England.

I have held various roles in the NHS at both the Bristol General Hospital and Bristol Royal Infirmary, including as Senior Staff Nurse and Clinical Site Manager. After 10 years at the NHS, I then transitioned into the care home industry, working at 3 local care homes in Clinical Service Manager and HM roles.

I pride myself on achieving and maintaining high ratings with the CQC at all the homes I have worked at. Ensuring the consistent provision of the highest quality care and support possible to residents, staff and relatives is my priority.

It is a privilege to be a part of the Harbour Residential team and I very much look forward to meeting you all.

    Time to make our Easter bonnets.
    This week we have been making easter bonnets for the rabbits to wear (but we couldnt resist trying them on ourselves) and we have been outside for a glass of wine which was very civilised.
    Anita has been out in the garden to enjoy the fine weather. Well done Anita, you brightened our day too with your lovely smile.
    We drew Jerry the bunny this week and Roy met a new addition to his family.
    Last few days we have coloured in spring flowers but also planted spring flowers. Oh and we played a little 'name that tune' too.
    On saturday it was Roy's 95th birthday and apart from a spot of dominoes and a nice cake, we also made it down to the excellent The Possett Cup in Portishead Wetherspoons Fans. Great to see so many of our residents getting out to this nice communal pub with its big windows and airy feel. Our residents loved it. Happy birthday Roy! #portishead
    Someone brought in a friendly parrot today called Rex but poor the bird was so traumatised he didn't manage a word. Such a beautiful looking bird. We enjoyed meeting you Rex.
