Your care in expert hands
Our qualified nurses and trained care assistants provide 24-hour care for people with a wide range of nursing and personal needs. Clients soon see that we care in the fullest sense of the word. This reflects the personal qualities of our staff as much as their professional standing.
“I like the friendliness of the staff and the informality of the home. They’ll do anything for you and their patience is endless.”
In addition to general nursing, a number of our nurses have extensive hospice and/or palliative care experience, giving us exceptional levels of expertise in nursing people with progressive, incurable physical illnesses, as well as providing excellent end-of-life care for all residents. Some of our nurses also have qualifications in mental health nursing. This allows for expert advice and care for our residents with memory problems.
At Broomgrove we don’t cater for residents with progressive dementia needs or challenging behaviour.
We also specialise in short term respite care and convalescent care. We have rooms dedicated to these residents. Respite care allows carers at home to have that all important break or elderly people living on their own a short spell of recuperation from an illness. Convalescent care is ideally suited to provide support to those who require extra care between hospital and home following an operation.
All nursing staff and care assistants are appropriately qualified and experienced to meet the needs of our residents, however complex, and each resident has a detailed personal care-plan which covers his or her physical, psychological and social care. The protection of dignity and personal privacy is paramount to all our nursing care which reflects the preferences of each individual resident.
Several teams of nursing and care staff are on duty throughout the day, with another team on duty during the night. A minimum of two qualified nurses are on duty at any one time of the day or night.
Medical services
As a charity, we subsidise the cost of routine weekly GP visits by our fantastic local team from the Hollies Medical Centre. We also provide access to a physiotherapist twice weekly at no extra cost to you.
