Have a Question About Our Care?

What is Nursing Care?

Nursing care is specialist support provided by qualified nurses to people with complex medical or neurological conditions. It involves around-the-clock care tailored to each individual’s needs, aiming to protect their health, dignity, and quality of life.

This includes 24/7 health monitoring, safe medication management, and help with everyday tasks like washing, dressing, and moving around. It also often incorporates therapies such as physiotherapy, occupational therapy, and speech therapy to aid recovery and maintain independence.

Beyond physical care, our full-time care nurses offer emotional support and guidance to both residents and their families, creating a compassionate, informed environment. Nursing care takes a holistic approach—addressing medical, emotional, and practical needs to ensure the best possible outcomes for each person.

Nursing Care FAQs

What is the difference between nursing care and respite care?

Nursing care is intended for individuals with complex medical or neurological conditions who require ongoing clinical support and continuous monitoring. This may include assistance with medication management, mobility, and specialist therapies.

Respite care, in contrast, offers short-term support for individuals whose primary caregivers need a break, or for those recovering from surgery or illness. It provides temporary accommodation and care, often with access to the same facilities and support available to permanent residents.

What is a nursing care plan?

A nursing care plan is a personalised document that outlines a resident’s individual care needs, goals, and specific interventions. It helps guide the care team in delivering consistent, efficient, and effective care, ensuring that each aspect of support is tailored and reviewed regularly as needs evolve.

What is holistic care in nursing?

Holistic care recognises that well-being goes beyond physical health. In nursing, it involves supporting the emotional, social, spiritual, and psychological needs of each resident, alongside medical care. This approach fosters a well-rounded and compassionate environment that promotes healing and overall quality of life.

What is person-centred care in nursing?

Person-centred care places the individual at the heart of every decision. It respects each resident’s values, preferences, and life choices, promoting autonomy and dignity. Care plans are developed in collaboration with the resident and their loved ones, ensuring that care is tailored, respectful, and empowering.
