About Marillac Neurological Care Centre
Marillac Neurological Care Centre in Brentwood, Essex, provides nursing care for adults with complex neurological conditions and physical disabilities, including younger adults and older people, and people with a visual or hearing impairment. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is requires improvement. We would rather put that first than have somebody find it later. It is not the rating we want and we are not going to explain it away. There is an improvement plan in place, we are working through it with our staff, the people who live here and their families, and anyone considering the centre is entitled to ask exactly what is changing, who is accountable for it and what evidence there is that it is taking effect. The work itself carries on meanwhile and it matters greatly to the people who depend on it. Neurological care asks for specialist nursing, careful attention to positioning, nutrition, communication and pain, and close work with therapists and consultants. It also asks that we keep seeing an adult with a life and opinions rather than a set of clinical needs. Respite stays are available. We would encourage families to visit and judge our progress directly.
