About Ablegrange Severn Heights
Here at Ablegrange Severn Heights, we provide nursing home care for older adults in the heart of Worcester, Worcestershire. Our team works to support residents across a range of needs, including dementia care, nursing care, physical disability support and respite care, so that people coming to us do so knowing we have genuine experience across these areas. We understand that choosing a care home is one of the most significant decisions a family can make, and we do not take that lightly. Whether someone is joining us for a short respite stay or moving in on a longer term basis, we aim to make the transition as straightforward and reassuring as possible. We take time to get to know each resident as an individual, understanding their routines, preferences and what matters most to them day to day. Our nursing team is on hand around the clock, which means residents with complex or changing health needs receive the level of attention and clinical support they require. For those living with dementia, we focus on creating a calm and familiar environment where people feel safe and recognised, rather than simply managed. We are transparent about where we are as a service. Our most recent CQC rating is "requires improvement", and we are working steadily and openly to address the areas identified. We believe families deserve honesty, and we would rather be straightforward about our current position than gloss over it. Improvement is an ongoing process, and our staff are committed to making meaningful changes that people can actually see and feel in the care we provide. If you would like to find out more about what we offer, or if you would like to come and see us in person, we would be very glad to hear from you.
