What is Nursing Care?
Nursing care is a more advanced type of care provided to those who need medical care and support across a 24 hour period. Nursing care is suitable for those with physical disabilities, high dependency needs or people living with long-term health conditions or illnesses. It is also suitable for those in need of palliative care.
A nursing home will have a qualified team of general nurses and high-tech nursing equipment to ensure residents are as comfortable as possible during their stay. Alongside giving high-quality care and assistance to residents, staff will also support the overall well-being of a resident, taking into account their interests and preferences in order to exceed expectations.
