About Newlands House - Care Home with Nursing Physical Disabilities

Newlands House is a nursing home in Swadlincote, Derbyshire, specialising in nursing care for adults with a physical disability, including younger adults and people with a learning disability or autism. We also support older people and offer respite stays for shorter periods. Our focus on physical disability shapes everything here. Equipment, layout, moving and handling, and the time a morning routine actually takes when it is done properly rather than quickly. Being rushed is one of the most common complaints in care, and for somebody who needs physical support it is also undignified, so we plan around the real time needed rather than the time that would suit a rota. Many of the people we support are younger adults, and we take seriously the fact that a nursing home should not mean the end of an ordinary life. Getting out, keeping up with friends and interests, having privacy, making your own decisions about your day. These are not extras. We pay close attention to how people communicate too, which is not always through words, and we give the time needed to understand properly rather than assume. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. We keep examining the detail rather than treating it as settled, particularly around choice and privacy. If you are considering a nursing placement or a respite stay with us, please come and visit, meet the people who live here and ask us whatever you need to know.
