About Northfield Care Centre
Northfield Care Centre is a nursing home in Doncaster, where registered nurses are on duty around the clock alongside our care team. We look after older people and younger adults with nursing needs, people with physical disabilities, people with loss of sight or hearing, people living with mental health conditions, and people living with eating disorders. The nursing covers management of long term conditions, wound and skin care, continence support, help where eating and swallowing have become difficult, and careful oversight of medication. We work closely with local GPs, district nurses, dietitians and therapy teams, and we ask for specialist advice early rather than waiting to see how matters develop. Where somebody is living with an eating disorder, mealtimes call for a particular kind of patience and consistency, and we make sure the staff involved understand that rather than treating it as an ordinary task on a list. What we work hardest to avoid is letting the clinical side take over the day. Someone living here is a person before they are a set of needs. Respite stays are available alongside permanent places. Our most recent rating from the Care Quality Commission is good, and visitors are welcome.
