What is a Nursing home?

Nursing homes and residential homes differ primarily in the level of medical care provided. Nursing homes, also known as care homes with nursing, offer 24-hour medical care and supervision by licensed nurses, making them suitable for individuals with significant medical needs.

Residential homes do not provide continuous medical care and are ideal for individuals who need personal care but not intensive medical supervision.

Care Home or Nursing Home?

We offer both types of care at our nursing home. When choosing care for a loved one, there are several things to consider.

Medical requirements

For individuals needing continuous medical supervision or those living with advanced conditions like dementia, a nursing home is often the best option. These facilities provide 24-hour medical care and skilled nursing services tailored explicitly to complex health needs.

Daily assistance needs

When your loved one requires assistance with daily activities such as bathing, dressing, or eating and needs constant monitoring, nursing homes and residential care homes can offer the necessary support and assistance.

Cognitive health

In cases of advanced dementia or Alzheimer’s disease, nursing homes with specialised memory care units offer a structured environment and expert care designed to meet these unique needs.

Social and Emotional Well-being

Nursing homes that provide a variety of recreational activities tailored to individual health needs can be particularly beneficial for those who thrive on social interactions and community engagement.

By assessing these factors, you can select the best care option for your loved one, ensuring their needs and preferences are met while enhancing their quality of life.
