About Cooperscroft Care Home
Cooperscroft Care Home is a nursing home in Potters Bar, Hertfordshire. We care for older people and for younger adults whose health needs mean that qualified nursing support should be available at any hour. Many of the people who live here have dementia, often alongside physical illness or reduced mobility, and a number have sight or hearing loss. Caring well in those circumstances takes both clinical skill and close attention to the person. We watch for pain that cannot easily be described, we keep the surroundings calm and easy to make sense of, and we adapt how we communicate as needs change rather than assuming that what worked last year still works now. We plan care with residents and their families. Sleep, food, privacy, company and the ordinary shape of the day are part of that plan, not afterthoughts to the clinical side. We work closely with GPs, community teams and hospital specialists so that treatment happens quickly and, where possible, without anyone having to move. Respite stays are available for families needing a break and for people who need nursing support for a short period. At our most recent inspection the Care Quality Commission rated us outstanding. We are proud of it, and we know it reflects the daily work of the team rather than anything else. If you are looking at nursing care, please come and see us and judge for yourself.
