Services We Offer
Nursing Care
The home is staffed a professional Registered General Nurse at all times providing peace of mind for both patients and relatives. In addition, the nursing staff are fully supported by a team of Healthcare Assistants including three of a senior position. We are able to care for those residents needing long-term care, e.g. those with Parkinson’s Disease, those disabled following a stroke and the very elderly frailty and infirm, as well as those requiring intensive care for terminal illnesses.
Residents are given the option of keeping their existing doctor or transferring to a local surgery. The local surgery provides medical care for the residents reviewing each one every two weeks, or more frequently where the need arises.
