About Care Home with Nursing

We are a care home with nursing in Lyme Regis, Dorset. We provide nursing care for older people, including those living with dementia, people with a physical disability and people with sight or hearing loss, and we also support some younger adults with nursing needs. Respite stays are available. Having qualified nurses on site means people can remain with us as their health needs change rather than facing another move. But most of what makes a day good or bad here has little to do with nursing. It is whether somebody was helped at their own pace, whether the food was something they actually wanted, whether their room feels like theirs and whether they were asked rather than told. Those are the things we want to be judged on. We need to be straightforward about where we stand. Our most recent overall judgement from the Care Quality Commission was that we require improvement. We accepted the findings rather than arguing with them, we have an action plan in place and we are working through it with colleagues in health and the local authority. Families deserve to hear that from us directly instead of finding it elsewhere. If you are considering us for a relative, please come and visit. Look at the home properly, speak to our nurses and the people living here, and ask us exactly what the concerns were and what we have changed. We will answer plainly rather than steering you towards a brochure.
