About Heights Care Home
We at Wiltshire Heights Care Home extend a warm welcome to families exploring nursing home options in the beautiful market town of Bradford on Avon. Nestled within the rolling countryside of Wiltshire, our home offers specialist nursing care, dementia support, and respite stays in a setting where comfort, dignity, and genuine compassion shape every day. Our location in Bradford on Avon places us within one of the South West's most picturesque corners, where residents can enjoy the peaceful rhythms of a historic Wiltshire town whilst remaining connected to the wider community. The surrounding area, with its gentle landscapes and traditional charm, provides a calming backdrop that we believe contributes meaningfully to the wellbeing of those in our care. Families visiting from across Wiltshire and beyond will find our setting both accessible and reassuring, offering an environment that feels a world away from the pressures of everyday life. The breadth of care we provide reflects our commitment to supporting people at different stages and with differing needs. For older residents requiring nursing care, our qualified team is on hand around the clock, ensuring that complex health needs are managed with skill and sensitivity. For those living with dementia, we take a person centred approach, focusing on familiar routines, meaningful engagement, and the small moments that bring comfort and connection. We also welcome younger adults whose circumstances require nursing support, recognising that care should always be tailored to the individual rather than the age on a birth certificate. Respite care forms an important part of what we offer, providing short term stays for those recovering from illness or surgery, and offering family carers a well deserved period of rest in the knowledge that their loved one is in capable, caring hands. Whether a stay is planned for a week or several, we approach every respite guest with the same warmth and attention we give to permanent residents. Following our most recent CQC inspection in October 2023, Wiltshire Heights Care Home received an overall rating of Good, with Good ratings across the Effective, Caring, Responsive, and Well led domains. This recognition reflects the everyday dedication of our team and the trust placed in us by the residents and families we support. The inspection also identified areas within the Safe domain that Requires Improvement, and we want to be open about that. We have taken these findings seriously and continue to work diligently on strengthening every aspect of our practice, because we believe that transparency and continual improvement are essential to providing truly excellent care. Choosing a nursing home for someone you love is one of the most significant decisions a family can make, and we understand the weight of that choice. If you are considering care for a relative, whether for long term nursing support, dementia care, or a period of respite, we would be delighted to hear from you. Please do get in touch to arrange a visit, meet our team, and see for yourself the warmth and care that define life at Wiltshire Heights.
