About Montague House
Montague House is a nursing home in Huntingdon. We provide nursing care for older people and younger adults, and we support people living with dementia, people with a physical disability and people with a visual or hearing impairment. Respite stays are available alongside permanent places. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is requires improvement. We would rather you had that from us than came across it after a visit. The inspection identified things that were not good enough for the people living here, and we have accepted that. Anyone considering the home should ask precisely what was found and precisely what has changed since, and should not settle for a general reassurance. Alongside that work, the ordinary business of the home continues. Nurses are on duty at all hours, so medication, skin care, nutrition and pain are managed here. Where sight or hearing has failed, we take care to say who has come into the room and describe what is happening, so that nobody spends the day being surprised by things. Please visit before you decide anything. Read the inspection report in full, speak to residents and relatives, and form your own view rather than relying on ours.
