About Marmion Nursing Home
Marmion Nursing Home in Tamworth, Staffordshire, provides nursing care for older people and for younger adults, including people living with mental health conditions. Nursing care exists because some needs cannot safely be met at home, and we take that responsibility seriously. Our nursing team manages medication, wounds, mobility, nutrition and complex health conditions, and we work closely with GPs and community health teams so that nobody falls between services. Records are kept properly and handovers are thorough, because most avoidable problems in this work come from something known by one person and not passed on. Supporting people with mental health needs asks for something a little different. It asks for patience, for consistency, and for staff who do not take a bad day personally. It also asks that we keep seeing the person rather than the diagnosis, which sounds obvious and is easy to lose sight of when someone is unwell. We try to build routines that people can rely on and relationships that hold up when things are difficult. We offer respite stays as well as longer arrangements, including for people who need a period of nursing care after a hospital admission. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. Families are welcome to visit and see how the home runs on an ordinary day.
