About Hall
Winscombe Hall is a nursing home in Winscombe, North Somerset, with registered nurses on duty around the clock alongside our care team. We look after older people whose health needs require nursing, including a good number of people living with dementia, and we offer both permanent places and shorter respite stays. People generally come to us when their needs have grown beyond what residential care or support at home can safely meet. The nursing covers management of long term conditions, wound and skin care, continence support, help where eating and swallowing have become difficult, and careful oversight of medication. We work closely with local GPs, district nurses, dietitians and therapists, and we involve families in decisions rather than informing them once a decision is made. Dementia care here rests on steadiness. Familiar staff, a predictable shape to the day, and rooms that are easy to make sense of do more to settle somebody than anything else available to us, and we plan around that rather than around timetables that look good on paper. Our most recent rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. Visitors are welcome and we would be glad to show you round.
