What is Nursing Care?

Nursing care can be provided to people of all ages and on a varying level, however in care homes it is most commonly given to older people and those who need support for an illness or health condition. Nursing care not only encompasses medical support, but also support for their physical and emotional wellbeing too. This means that nursing care also involves encouragement to try new activities and providing opportunities to stay as active and as sociable as possible.

At The Hazelwell, we provide high-quality Nursing Care on a varying level, from elderly care and support such as helping with mobility and getting ready, to assisting those with life limiting conditions and intense physical disabilities. Our team is available around-the-clock, allowing our residents to rest assured that we are there for them whenever they need us. Like with all our care, we take a person-centred approach, working closely with our residents and their loved ones to create a care plan that meets their individual needs.
