About Harrington Care Homes
Harrington Care Homes in Aylesbury is a nursing home offering both residential and nursing care to older people and to younger adults. Having qualified nurses on site means that people can stay with us as their needs change, rather than facing another move at a point in life when moving is the last thing anyone wants. We look after a good number of residents living with dementia, and we try to make the home easy to live in for them. That means clear routines, unhurried support, staff who know each person's history, and an environment where someone can walk about, potter and find something to do without being steered back to a chair. Good care is largely made up of small things done consistently. Knowing how someone takes their tea. Noticing that a person who normally chats has gone quiet. Getting pain relief right so that someone can enjoy an afternoon rather than endure it. We spend our time on those details, because they add up to how a day actually feels. Families are welcome here and we would rather hear from you regularly than only when there is a problem. We also offer respite care, whether that is to give a family carer a rest or to help someone recover their strength after a stay in hospital before returning home.
