About Next Steps Mental Healthcare
We are Next Steps Mental Healthcare, a nursing home in Manchester. We provide nursing care and support for adults living with mental health conditions, including older people and younger adults, and we also offer respite stays. Because our focus is mental health rather than general older people's care, the way we work is different from most nursing homes. Having qualified nursing available means health needs and medication can be looked after properly without somebody having to move on in order to get them managed. Around that, our attention goes on routine, on recovery where that is the direction of travel, and on what each person actually wants from their week. Much of what we do is about structure without rigidity. A predictable day, a decent meal, a proper night's sleep, medication that is right and taken, and somebody who notices how you are doing make the difference between coping and struggling. Equally, this is somewhere people live rather than a programme they are put through. Where somebody wants to work towards living more independently, we support that. We have not yet received an overall rating from the Care Quality Commission. Until we have, we would encourage families and commissioners to ask us detailed questions about nursing cover, staffing, training and how support is planned. Please contact us if you would like to visit.
