About Kingfisher Court
Kingfisher Court is a nursing home in Southampton supporting older people and younger adults with nursing needs, adults with learning disabilities, autistic adults, people with physical disabilities, people with loss of sight or hearing, and people living with mental health conditions. Registered nurses are on duty alongside our support team. We should be honest about our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission, which is requires improvement. We would rather you heard it from us. We know the areas that were identified and there is a programme of work in hand, with changes already made to staff supervision and training, to how care is recorded, and to how families are included in decisions. Please ask us about it directly when you come. The work continues as it should meanwhile. Having nursing on site means health needs can be met here rather than requiring somebody to move again. Communication gets particular attention, and where somebody has sensory loss we adapt how we approach and announce ourselves. Respite stays are available. Please visit and ask us anything.
