About St Albans Nursing Home

St Albans Nursing Home is in Poulton Le Fylde, Lancashire. We provide nursing care for older people, including people living with dementia, and we offer respite stays for those who need care for a shorter period. Having registered nurses on the team means we can care for people with real medical needs and can usually go on caring for somebody as those needs increase. Families often come to us at the point where residential care is no longer enough, and what they want most is for the moving to stop. We keep the home unhurried. People wake in their own time, eat what they enjoy and spend the day in company or quietly as they choose. Rooms are the residents' own and we treat them that way. For people living with dementia, our approach relies on familiarity and patience: knowing somebody's history, recognising what unsettles them and giving time rather than instructions. We work closely with GPs and community teams so that problems are picked up early and hospital admissions happen only when genuinely needed. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. If you are looking for nursing care on the Fylde coast, please come and see us, meet the team and ask us anything you need to know.
