About Oxton Grange Care Home
Oxton Grange Care Home in Prenton offers both residential and nursing care to older people, including many residents living with dementia. Having qualified nurses on site means people can stay with us as their needs change, rather than facing another move at a point in life when moving is the last thing anyone wants. We give close attention to medication, pain relief, skin care and nutrition, and we involve GPs and community teams early rather than late. Beyond that, our job is to make the day worth having. Mornings are flexible, because being hurried out of bed at a set hour is nobody's idea of comfortable. Meals are cooked on the premises and adjusted happily for anyone who fancies something different. Support with washing and dressing is given at the resident's pace rather than the rota's. For residents living with dementia we keep routines steady and take real trouble to learn a person's history, because that knowledge is usually what allows us to settle someone who is anxious, and it makes ordinary conversation better too. We also offer respite care, whether to give a family carer a break or to help someone regain strength after a hospital stay. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good.
