About Miranda House
Miranda House is a nursing home in Swindon, with qualified nurses on duty at all times. We care for older people and younger adults, including many people living with dementia and people with mental health needs, and we offer respite stays. People usually come to us when health needs have grown beyond what support at home or a residential home can meet, and our task is to meet those needs without letting them become the whole of somebody's life. Nursing here means consistent attention to the things that keep a person comfortable and well: medicines, mobility, nutrition and hydration, skin, continence and pain, reviewed properly and talked through with the person and their family rather than handled quietly in the background. We involve GPs, district nurses and community mental health teams early rather than late. Around that, ordinary life carries on. People rise when they wake, sit where they choose, keep their own furniture and photographs about them, and eat food that suits their taste as well as any clinical need. With dementia we rely on knowing somebody well. Where somebody is managing a mental health condition we aim to be steady and clear, because people tell us consistency helps more than reassurance. When somebody is nearing the end of life we aim to be honest, present and unhurried. Our most recent inspection by the Care Quality Commission rated us good overall.
