About Milton House Nursing and Residential Home
Milton House is a nursing home in Skipton, North Yorkshire, caring for adults who need qualified nursing support alongside help with daily living. Registered nurses are on duty here at all hours, which means clinical needs can be met in familiar surroundings rather than through repeated journeys elsewhere. Most of the people who live with us are older, and the nursing side of our work sits within something broader. Meals worth sitting down to, mornings that are not rushed, company when it is wanted and quiet when it is not, and staff who know a person well enough to notice when they are not themselves. Good nursing care without that is only half a job. Younger adults with nursing needs live here too, and we try to make sure the life of the home has something in it for them rather than expecting everyone to want the same afternoon. Respite stays are part of what we offer. Sometimes a family carer needs a genuine break, and sometimes somebody needs a period of nursing support to regain strength after illness before returning home. Both are worth doing properly. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. If you are considering the home for yourself or a relative, please arrange to visit and ask us whatever you want to ask.
