Nursing care
What is nursing care?
Nursing care is designed for those with complex health needs, offering the expertise of registered nurses to provide specialist care. Unlike residential care, which focuses on daily living assistance, nursing care covers a broader range of health services. This includes administering medications, monitoring vital signs, and managing long-term conditions to ensure ongoing medical support.
In some of our homes, we offer a blended approach that combines residential and nursing care. This works well for those who may not need extensive nursing care now but could benefit from it in the future. It provides a smooth transition as needs change, ensuring the right level of care at every stage of their journey.
- Expert medical care - Our experienced registered nurses have high-quality medical expertise in caring for a range of conditions
- Unlimited support - Our nurse-led care teams are always on-hand to provide support whenever it is needed, whatever the time of day or night
- Tailored care - We make sure that every aspect of care, from daily routines to meals and activities, is tailored to the individual
- Stimulating activities - Our homes offer a programme of activities to suit all levels of ability, allowing residents to continue existing hobbies and pastimes or take up new ones
- High-quality dining - Our chef-led catering teams provide delicious home-cooked meals and snacks throughout the day
- Connection - Residents can enjoy companionship and friendship within the home and the local community
- Safety - We assess every resident’s individual needs and create tailored care plans to keep them safe and well
Nursing care completely tailored to you
Once you decide that moving into one of our nursing care homes is the right choice for you, we will make every effort to get to know you personally. This allows us to create a care plan that is completely tailored to your unique needs.
We take the time to understand your specific care needs and preferences. This includes learning about your hobbies, life experiences, daily routines, and food preferences. By gathering this information, we can develop a comprehensive care plan that ensures everyone involved in your care understands exactly how you would like to be supported.
It can be tricky to know what type of care is right for a loved one, but you’ll know when the time is right when you start seeing signs that they need more help and support than you are able to provide.
Alternatives to nursing care can include:
- Residential care – 24-hour care delivered by caring, compassionate and committed in a care home setting. This care is suitable for people who are finding it increasingly difficult to remain independent in their own home.
- Home care – From 30 minute visits up to 24-hour care, carers will visit your loved one in their own home to provide support including personal care routines, support taking medication and help at mealtimes.
- Live-in care – Living with your loved one in their own home, carers can provide round-the-clock support enabling them to maintain their independence and lifestyle at home.
