Nursing Care

Yes, every resident has access to a personal alarm pendant linked directly to our Nurse Call System. This ensures that help is available at the touch of a button, offering peace of mind for both residents and their families. The pendants are included in the cost of care.

Nursing care services offered by care homes can vary depending on individual requirements. Hazelwood Care Home offers services like medication management, wound care, assistance with daily living activities, and specialised care for conditions like Epilepsy and Parkinson’s Disease. Our team works closely with other healthcare providers to ensure residents receive the specific care they need, which is especially important when understanding the distinctions between different types of care settings, such as whether nursing homes and care homes are the same thing.

Identifying the need for nursing care in a family member may involve signs such as recent falls, hospital admissions, loss of appetite, difficulties with daily living activities, increased confusion, worsening chronic health conditions, medication management issues, and the requirement for specialised medical care. The nursing team at Hazelwood can evaluate the required level of care and offer guidance on the most appropriate care for your family member, involving them in the decision-making process.

Safety is a top priority at Hazelwood Care Home. We ensure proper staffing levels with highly trained and qualified nursing staff. Our facility adheres to rigorous protocols for infection control and medication management, conducting regular safety audits and assessments. We have implemented security measures to prevent unauthorised access and protect the safety and well-being of our residents.

At Hazelwood Care Home, we require a 28-day notice period for residents receiving any of our long-term care types and are looking to move out. Our compassionate team are on hand around the clock to support you with your moving transition and answer any further questions you have.
