About Erskine Hall Care Home
Erskine Hall Care Home is a nursing home in Northwood, Hertfordshire, providing care for people whose needs go beyond what can reasonably be managed at home. Because we are registered for nursing care, qualified nurses are part of our team alongside our care staff. That means we can look after people with complex or changing health needs, support those recovering after illness or surgery, and care for people whose conditions are progressing, without them having to move on somewhere else when things change. Continuity of that kind matters to families as much as it does to residents. We care for older people and also for younger adults, and a good number of our residents are living with dementia. Our approach there is practical rather than theoretical. We learn what a person was like before, what they enjoy, what unsettles them and what reassures them, and we shape the day around that. Nobody is hurried, and we would rather sit with someone for ten minutes than move them along. Respite stays are available for people who need care for a short period, perhaps while a family carer takes a break or while someone regains strength after a hospital admission. At our most recent inspection the Care Quality Commission rated us good overall, which reflects the steady work our team puts in day after day. You are welcome to come and see Erskine Hall for yourself. Please ring and arrange a time, and we will show you round properly and answer whatever you want to ask.
