About Windy Ridge Care Home

Windy Ridge Care Home is a nursing home in New Milton, Hampshire, close to both the coast and the forest. We care for people who need qualified nursing support alongside daily care, with nursing staff on hand throughout the day and night so that changing health needs do not mean moving somewhere new. We support older people and younger adults, including many living with dementia. Alongside the clinical side of our work, we pay close attention to the things people actually live with day to day. Whether the food is worth looking forward to, whether staff know them properly, whether the house feels calm, and whether they are asked before things are done to them. For people living with dementia we work from life history and familiar routine, sharing what we learn across the whole team rather than leaving it in a file. Getting outside matters here too, and we make the most of where we are whenever the weather allows. Respite care is available as well, whether planned so a family carer can take a proper break or arranged while someone regains their strength after a hospital stay. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. Families are welcome and we would rather raise a concern early than explain it afterwards. Please get in touch if you would like to visit.
