About Joseph Nursing and Care Home
Joseph Nursing and Care Home is in Clacton on Sea, Essex, providing nursing and residential care for older people and younger adults. Having qualified nurses on duty at all hours means that health needs can be met here, by people who know the resident, rather than through repeated journeys elsewhere. Many of the people living with us are living with dementia. We approach that by learning each person's history and habits, keeping the day familiar and unhurried, explaining changes before they happen, and treating distress as something with a cause rather than something to be contained. The rest of our nursing work is a matter of attention to detail: medication, mobility, skin care, nutrition, pain and comfort, all done carefully and without fuss. We want the place to feel like a home rather than a clinical setting. Rooms are personalised, residents decide how their days run, and relatives are welcome whenever they can come. Respite stays are available for people needing care for a short period, including after a hospital admission. We do not currently hold an overall rating from the Care Quality Commission, so we would encourage you to come and form your own view. Visit at an ordinary time of day, meet our nurses and residents, and ask us anything you want to know.
