Residential Care

Where Your Comfort Comes First

We offer 24-hour residential care in a safe, supportive setting where comfort, independence, and dignity come first.

Our team provides round-the-clock support with personal care, medication, and daily routines. We take pride in creating a warm, homely atmosphere with beautifully decorated rooms, peaceful gardens, delicious home-cooked meals, and meaningful activities.

We work closely with families to understand what matters most - favourite hobbies, routines, and preferences - so every resident feels truly at home.

“During my 3 years here I have been very happy, with much loving kindness and care shown by my carers and staff.”

Nursing Care

Round-the-Clock Clinical Excellence

We provide nursing care for people with more complex health needs, whether due to a medical condition, long-term illness, or physical or mental health challenges. If you or a loved one requires clinical support such as wound care, catheter care, tube feeding, or specialist medication like insulin injections, our qualified nursing team is here to help.

Our experienced nursing team is here around the clock, offering expert clinical care alongside personal support. We carry out a full assessment to create a personalised care plan that reflects your health needs, preferences, and routines. This plan is regularly reviewed and adapted as your needs change, ensuring you always receive the right support at the right time.

Dementia Care

Compassionate Support for Every Stage

Dementia affects everyone differently, and as symptoms progress, daily life can become more challenging. We offer a dedicated dementia care area for residents living with Alzheimer’s or other forms of dementia. Our Nightingale Wing provides specialised support for older adults with dementia and mental health needs in a calm, secure environment.

Our team is equipped to understand each resident’s individuality, recognising their preferences, routines, and ways of communicating. All staff receive specialist training in dementia-related behaviours, and we’re proud to be supported by external dementia care experts who provide ongoing, independent training to ensure best practice.

“A family atmosphere. I cannot speak highly enough of the care home. One word - Wonderful”

Respite and Short Stay Care

A Welcome Break

Everyone needs a break sometimes, whether you're recovering from an illness or operation, or your usual carers simply need time to rest and recharge. Our short care breaks, also known as respite stays, offer peace of mind with 24-hour support in a safe, comfortable setting.

Whether it’s for a few days or several weeks, residents receive the same high standard of personalised care as our long-term residents. It’s a chance to relax, recover, and enjoy the warmth of our homely environment, while families and carers take time for themselves, knowing their loved one is in good hands.

Palliative Care

Peaceful Surroundings, Thoughtful Care

Victoria Wing offers dedicated nursing and palliative care in a calm and supportive setting. Our experienced team is here around the clock, providing expert clinical care. We take time to understand each resident’s needs, preferences, and values, ensuring every individual is treated with the utmost care, dignity, and respect.

Families are part of the journey too. We work closely with loved ones to create personalised care plans and provide continuity during sensitive times.

“A home to be praised. Everyone is so wonderfully kind. Nothing is too much trouble”

Bariatric Nursing

Specialist Support

Nightingale Wing includes four dedicated bariatric nursing beds, designed to support residents with higher body weight and complex health needs. Our experienced team provides safe, respectful care using specialist equipment and thoughtful approaches that promote comfort, dignity, and wellbeing. The wing also supports younger adults with physical or mental disabilities.

“Top marks all round to staff, carers, and all concerned”
