About Fleming House Care Home with Nursing
Here at Fleming House Care Home with Nursing, we are proud to be part of the Eastleigh community in Hampshire, providing nursing care for people who need genuine, attentive support in a place that truly feels like home. We care for older adults, people living with dementia, and younger adults, offering the kind of nursing led support that makes a real difference to everyday life. Our team works closely with residents and their families to understand what matters most to each individual, because good care is built on knowing the person, not just the condition. Dementia care sits at the heart of much of what we do, and we have worked hard to make sure our environment and approach reflect the needs of people living with memory loss. That means familiar routines, calm surroundings, and staff who take the time to listen and learn what brings comfort and confidence to each resident. For those with more complex nursing needs, we have the clinical expertise to provide care that supports health and wellbeing while maintaining dignity and quality of life. We believe that needing nursing support should not mean giving up the things that bring joy or a sense of self. We are pleased that our most recent inspection by the Care Quality Commission resulted in an overall rating of good, which we see as a reflection of the consistency and thoughtfulness our team brings to work every day. That said, we are always looking at how we can do better and we welcome honest conversations with families about how we can improve. If you are considering Fleming House for yourself or someone you love, we would warmly encourage you to come and see us in person. We think that is the best way to get a true sense of who we are.
