About Stowlangtoft Hall Nursing Home

Stowlangtoft Hall Nursing Home is near Bury St Edmunds in Suffolk. We care for older people who need nursing support, including people living with dementia, and we take respite bookings. At our most recent inspection the Care Quality Commission rated us outstanding overall. We are proud of it and careful with it, because a rating describes one particular week and all the work that earned it has to carry on happening afterwards. Having qualified nurses on site around the clock means people whose health is genuinely complicated can stay with us as things change, rather than moving on at the point familiarity counts for most. Wounds, pain, continence, nutrition, medication and safe movement are properly managed here. What we think sits behind our rating, though, is the ordinary side. People choose when they get up, what they wear, what is on the plate and how the afternoon goes. We knock, we explain what we are about to do, and we wait to be told it is all right. Dementia asks for a familiar day above anything we could add, and when somebody is unsettled we look for the reason rather than trying to smooth it over. We also take complaints seriously. Most of what we have improved here began with somebody telling us plainly that something was not good enough.
