About Frenchay Park Gardens Care Home

Frenchay Park Gardens Care Home is a nursing home in Bristol, providing nursing and personal care for older people and for younger adults whose health needs go beyond what can reasonably be managed at home. We also offer respite stays for people who need care for a shorter period or whose family carer needs a rest. Qualified nurses are part of our team, which means a resident whose health becomes complex or changeable does not have to move on again to get the care they need. We work closely with doctors, district nurses and therapists whenever someone's condition alters, and clinical care is given with the same regard for privacy and dignity as every other part of the day. Nursing is only part of life here, and we try hard not to let it become the whole of a resident's day. We ask people about their history, their work, their family, their faith and their food, and we build the shape of the day around those answers rather than around the rota. Mobility and independence are protected wherever possible, and we would far rather support someone to do something slowly themselves than do it quickly for them. Families are welcome and we encourage them to tell us when something does not look right. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good, and keeping it depends on ordinary daily details.
