About Handsale - Silver Trees

Silver Trees is a nursing home near Bristol, in North Somerset. Being registered for nursing care means we can look after people whose health needs are more complex than a residential home can safely meet, with qualified nurses working alongside our care team throughout. We care for older adults with ongoing medical conditions, managing medication, nutrition, skin care, pain and comfort while helping with the everyday tasks of washing, dressing and moving about. Dementia care is a substantial part of our work and rests on familiar staff, a settled routine and taking the time to learn what reassures each individual rather than applying one approach to everybody. We support residents with physical disabilities, adapting how we assist with moving about so that dignity is not the price of safety, and we also care for younger adults whose conditions require nursing support, planning their days around their own interests. Respite stays are available for families needing a planned break or extra support after a hospital discharge. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. Families are welcome here at any reasonable hour, and we would always rather hear about a worry while it is still small.
