About The Boynes Care Centre
The Boynes Care Centre is a nursing home near Worcester. We provide nursing care for older people and for younger adults, including residents living with dementia, residents managing mental health conditions, residents with a physical disability and residents whose sight or hearing has changed. Respite stays are available for people who need care for a set period rather than permanently. Nurses are on duty at all hours, which means clinical needs are met here and changes in health are usually noticed early. Around that, we try to keep the feel of a home rather than a unit. Residents keep their own possessions and their own habits, choose how much of the day they spend in company, and are supported to carry on with the things they still enjoy. We should be straightforward about our most recent inspection. Our overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is requires improvement. We are working through an improvement plan rather than waiting for the next visit, and families considering us are welcome to ask precisely what was found and what has changed since. We would far rather have that conversation openly. For residents living with dementia, we keep familiar staff and familiar routines in place and we learn what we can about each person's earlier life, because that knowledge is what makes a difficult day easier. Relatives are welcome throughout, and their observations are treated as useful. Please contact us if you would like to visit.
