About Burwood Nursing Home
Burwood Nursing Home is at Broadstone. We care for older people who need qualified nursing alongside help with daily living, including residents living with dementia, people with a physical disability and people whose sight or hearing is impaired. Having nurses on duty at every hour means we can manage wound and pressure care, continence and catheter needs, diabetes, pain relief and end of life care, working closely with GPs, district nurses and hospital teams. It also means somebody whose health declines can usually stay here, among familiar faces and their own belongings, rather than being moved at the hardest possible moment. Dementia nursing asks for patience more than anything. We keep surroundings calm and the rhythm of the day predictable and we give people the time they need to find their words. Where sight or hearing is impaired we keep belongings exactly where they are expected and check that we have been understood. Respite stays are available, including nursing support after a hospital discharge. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is outstanding. Families across Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole are welcome to visit.
