About Overbury House Nursing and Residential Home

Overbury House Nursing and Residential Home is in Norwich. We provide both nursing and residential care for older people, including those living with dementia, and we offer respite stays. Having both kinds of care in one building matters a great deal to the people who live here. When somebody's health changes and they begin to need nursing input, they do not have to pack up, leave the staff they know and settle somewhere unfamiliar at the worst possible moment. That continuity is often the thing families worry about most when they first come to look round. Registered nurses are on site at all hours, so clinical needs are managed here. Alongside that runs the ordinary business of a decent day, which counts just as much. Residents choose their routines, make their rooms their own and decide how much company they want. With dementia, we rely on familiar faces, a predictable day and knowing something of a person's earlier life rather than on anything elaborate. Where someone is distressed we try to work out the cause. Respite stays suit people needing support after a hospital admission and family carers who need a proper break. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is requires improvement. We are not going to gloss over that. We know which areas were raised, work is under way, and we would rather talk it through openly than have anyone find out later. Please come and see Overbury House and ask us directly what is changing.
