About Woodlands NH
Woodlands is a nursing home in Stockport. We care for older people and younger adults whose needs mean qualified nursing has to be part of daily life, and we do a great deal of work with residents living with dementia. Respite stays are available as well. Registered nurses are on site around the clock, so medication, wound and pressure care and shifting health needs are handled here rather than becoming a reason for another move. The risk in any nursing home is that the clinical work gradually crowds out ordinary living, and we keep an eye on that deliberately. Getting up at your own hour, eating food you actually want, having your own things around you and someone who sits down rather than stands over you are not extras to be fitted in when there is time. For residents living with dementia we keep the daily rhythm steady and the faces familiar, and we ask families for the details of a person's life that no assessment records. Those details are what make conversation possible. We keep families informed when health changes rather than waiting for the next visit, and we work closely with general practitioners and hospital teams. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good.
