About Iden Manor Nursing Home
Iden Manor Nursing Home is near Tonbridge in Kent. We care for older people who need nursing support, including those living with dementia and those living with mental ill health, and we also support adults with a learning disability, autistic adults, people with a physical disability, people with visual or hearing impairment and younger adults. Respite stays are available too. Registered nurses are on site around the clock, which means clinical needs are met here rather than through repeated trips to hospital. Wound care, catheters, diabetes, pain relief and the gradual changes that come with frailty are handled by people who know the person. Combining nursing care with support for people who have a learning disability or who are autistic takes particular attention. Health needs in this group are too often missed or put down to something else, and we try hard not to let that happen. We learn how each person communicates, including those who use little or no speech, and we pay attention to noise, lighting and predictability. Most of good nursing care is small things done reliably. Pressure care that does not slip. Mouth care that is not skipped. Someone sitting with a person who is frightened in the night. Respite stays suit people needing nursing input briefly and family carers needing a real break. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. Please come and visit Iden Manor.
