Meadowside and St Francis

Nursing and residential

Our highly experienced and dedicated team of nurses and support staff provides 24-hour care, 365 days a year. Our quality of care standards, as set by the CQC (Care Quality Commission), are continually delivered, and we aim to surpass expectations year upon year.

Medical staff ensure care plans are regularly monitored, and frequent meetings with residents and relatives ensure that everyone is involved when it comes to the running of the care home. 

The nursing team liaises with outside agencies, and this provides us with close working relationships with local GPs, social services, pharmacies, and local health centres. This cohesive arrangement ensures that all medical services and facilities required by residents are clearly accessible.

We are very proud of our Six Steps + Accreditation with St. Luke's Hospice, which we have consistently maintained for many years. This accreditation focuses on quality end-of-life care and evidences our ongoing commitment and passion for palliative care.

Accommodation

All of our 69 purpose-built bedrooms are decorated to the highest standard with modern furniture, and all of the rooms are fully accessible via the lift. 

Every room has a smart TV and a modern emergency nurse call system.

We offer competitive pre-bookable short-term respite care, which can be as short as 4 weeks.

We provide 24-hour respite care for older people who need extra support following an operation or illness, renovations, or even if their regular carer takes a well-earned break!
