24-hour support, whenever you need it.
When a health problem needs the ongoing attention of nurses, you’ll need around-the-clock care. Our care homes can provide 24-hour specialised nursing care, both long and short term. Residents will have the benefit and assistance they’d get from living in a residential care home, with additional nursing care.
What to expect
In our nursing care homes, you can expect the following:
- Registered nurses
- 24-hour nursing care
- Well presented, comfortable accommodation
- Freshly-prepared, nutritionally balanced meals
- Laundry and cleaning services
- Long and short-stay nursing care options
- Nursing care for those funded by the local authorities, private funding and NHS continuing care
Some of our care homes provide specialist care for specific conditions such as dementia, Huntington’s disease and young physical disabilities.

Our approach to nursing care
Our person-centered approach to nursing care means that you will be respected as an individual and treated with dignity. All our residents have their own personal care plan, which recognises their individual needs and wishes, and allows us to tailor our care to their likes and dislikes.
We also ask you, your friends and family to help us to create a plan called ‘my day, my life, my story’. This records your life story and helps us to get to know you and the things that are most important to you when you arrive.

Rosie’s story
It’s hard to know what’s involved when looking for care. We follow Rosie’s journey and how she helped her mum into a care home. This story is fictional with realistic examples that help to demonstrate how the process works.
