About Bickerley Green Care Home with Nursing

Bickerley Green Care Home with Nursing is in Ringwood, Hampshire, and we care for older people and younger adults who need qualified nursing support, including many people living with dementia. People generally arrive at a point of change, often straight from hospital, often after a period when home had stopped being safe. Our first task is to steady that. We take time to learn how somebody was living before, what they can still do and want to keep doing, and what has frightened them recently, because a settled person recovers better than an anxious one. The clinical work that follows is substantial. Medication, wound care, mobility, continence, nutrition and the management of complex long term conditions all need proper attention, accurate records and close work with GPs and community health teams. Around it runs the ordinary business of living somewhere, which means meals worth eating, company, fresh air, and being spoken to as an adult with opinions even when speaking back has become difficult. Respite and recovery stays are available. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good, and families are welcome to visit on a normal day.
