About Lowfield House Nursing Home
Lowfield House is a nursing home in Kirton in Lindsey caring for adults who need qualified nursing support alongside help with everyday living. Registered nurses are on duty at all hours, so clinical needs can be met here rather than through repeated journeys elsewhere. We support older people, adults with a learning disability and autistic adults, people with physical disabilities and younger adults. A mix like that only works if support is genuinely individual, so we plan around the person rather than the category and review arrangements as people change. Around the nursing sits the ordinary business of a day. Unhurried mornings. Meals worth sitting down to. Company when it is wanted and quiet when it is not. Staff who know a person well enough to notice when they are not themselves. For autistic people, the environment is part of the care rather than the backdrop, and noise, lighting and short notice are things we plan around deliberately. Respite stays are available, whether a family carer needs a planned break or somebody needs nursing support for a shorter period. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. Please arrange a visit if you would like to see the home.
