About Uplands House Care Home
Uplands House is a nursing home in Fareham, Hampshire, caring for adults who need nursing support alongside help with everyday life. Having qualified nurses on the team means we can look after people whose health needs would be beyond a residential home, and that residents are not moved on each time those needs change. We support older adults with ongoing conditions, managing medication, nutrition, skin care, pain and comfort while helping with washing, dressing and mobility in a way that keeps as much as possible in the resident's own hands. We care for people living with mental health conditions, where a settled environment, a routine that can be relied upon and staff who notice early changes matter more than anything else we can offer. We also support younger adults whose conditions require nursing care, and we plan their days around their own interests rather than the pattern that suits the majority. Respite stays are available for families needing a planned break. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is requires improvement. We would rather put that in front of you ourselves than leave you to find it later. The areas identified are where our effort is going at present, and we are willing to talk them through with any family considering the home.
