About Greenfields Care Home
Greenfields Care Home is a nursing home in Whitchurch, Shropshire. We provide nursing care for older people and younger adults, and we support people living with dementia, people with a physical disability and people with a visual or hearing impairment. Respite stays are available alongside permanent places. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is requires improvement, and we would rather put that first than leave it to be discovered. The inspection found things that fell short of what the people living here are entitled to expect. We have accepted the findings and we are working through them. If you are considering us, ask exactly what was identified and exactly what has changed since, and press if the answer sounds general. The daily work continues alongside that. Nurses are on duty at all hours, so medication, skin care, nutrition and pain are managed on site and changes are noticed by people who know how somebody normally is. People are supported to be up and dressed, to eat properly and to see their families whenever they want. Please visit before you decide anything. Read the inspection report in full, talk to residents and relatives, and judge the home on what you find there.
