About Sharston House Nursing Home
Here at Sharston House Nursing Home, we provide nursing and residential care for older people in the heart of Knutsford, Cheshire East. Our home has been rated Good by the Care Quality Commission, which reflects the genuine effort our team puts in every day to make life here comfortable, safe and meaningful for everyone who lives with us. We specialise in older person care and nursing care, supporting residents who have a range of health and care needs. We also offer respite care for those who need a short break from their usual arrangements, whether that is to recover after a stay in hospital or to give a family member some time to rest. We treat everyone who comes through our doors, whether for a short stay or a permanent home, with the same level of attention and respect. What matters most to us is that residents feel genuinely at home here. We take time to understand each person as an individual, learning about their routines, preferences and the things that bring them comfort and joy. Care plans are built around the person, not the other way around, and we work closely with families to make sure we are always providing the right level of support. Our team is made up of trained nurses and care staff who know our residents well. There is a real sense of community within Sharston House, and we work hard to make sure that warmth comes through in everything we do, from the way we support people with their daily needs to the activities and social opportunities we offer throughout the week. If you are considering care for yourself or a loved one, we would warmly welcome you to come and visit us and see our home for yourself. We are always happy to have a conversation about how we might be able to help.
