About Albany Nursing Home

Albany Nursing Home is a nursing home in Waltham Forest, London. We care for adults who need qualified nursing support, including people living with dementia, people managing mental health conditions and people with physical disabilities. We offer both permanent places and respite stays. Having registered nurses here means clinical needs are met on site, and that when somebody's health changes we can respond rather than arranging a move. Medication, complex conditions and day to day clinical care are all managed here, and we work closely with local health professionals so that nothing falls between us. The nursing side is not the whole of it though. People choose when to get up, what to eat, where to spend their time and how much company they want. Staff learn individuals rather than diagnoses, and that knowledge gets shared properly so it does not sit with whoever happens to be on shift. Where somebody finds it hard to tell us what they need, we pay attention to mood, behaviour and routine, and we listen to families, who usually know far more than any assessment records. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. If you are considering nursing care in this part of London, you are welcome to visit and see how we work.
