About Herncliffe Care Home
Herncliffe Care Home is a nursing home in Keighley. We care for older people who need nursing support, including those living with dementia and people with a physical disability, and we offer respite stays as well as permanent places. Having registered nurses on site around the clock means clinical needs are met here rather than elsewhere. Wound care, catheters, diabetes, pain relief and the slow changes that come with frailty can all be managed in a place the person knows, which spares a great deal of upheaval and keeps families talking to people who actually know their relative. Good nursing care is mostly made up of small things done reliably and on time. Pressure care that does not slip. Mouth care that is not skipped. Someone sitting with a person who is frightened in the night. We would rather be judged on those than on anything we could put in a brochure. Dementia nursing takes patience. We keep the surroundings calm and familiar, keep staffing as consistent as we can, and treat distress as something to be understood rather than quietened. Respite stays suit people needing nursing input for a short period or family carers who need a genuine break. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is requires improvement. We will not dress that up. We know what was identified, work is in hand, and we are happy to discuss it with anyone considering Herncliffe. Please visit, ask us direct questions and see the home as it actually is.
