Nursing Care has the ability to change a person’s quality of life. From supporting an individual with everyday tasks to administering around-the-clock medication, Nursing Care is designed to provide medical care for those who are unable to live independently due to complex medical conditions that require a team of healthcare professionals to be on hand 24 hours a day.
Nursing Care is a type of care provided in nursing homes and often in care homes, and is designed to provide physical and emotional support to an individual and allow them to enjoy a higher quality of life with the support of registered nurses.
Nursing Care is often self-funded, however, in certain circumstances, NHS funded nursing care may be available to individuals following a care needs assessment. This is carried out by your local Integrated Care Board (ICB) so it’s recommended you get in touch with them to find out more.
Nursing Care is suitable for those who need intensive rehabilitative care following an injury, those with a physical disability, and those who are diagnosed with long-term health conditions or critical illnesses. This care service is also a great solution for those who need intensive rehabilitative care, following an injury or illness. It is most commonly offered in a care home or nursing home, but it is important to choose the best option for you or your family member.
Each individual receiving nursing care within a care home or nursing home will be assigned a district nurse. They will look after their personal hygiene as well as administering medication and ensuring they are comfortable at all times.
Convalescence Care and short-term stays are available in a care home to help with recovery and rehabilitation. When recovering from an injury it may not be safe to go straight home. Having 24-hour support from a registered nurse in a nursing home can help aid an effective and efficient recovery process and help the transition from hospital to home.
A physical disability can result in reduced mobility, and can therefore limit what people are able to do around home and personal tasks, such as self-care and hygiene. Having a disability can affect any individual at any age.
For the elderly who are suffering from a physical disability, old age can bring added complications. Whether an individual has mobility issues or suffers from a condition such as arthritis, day-to-day living can become increasingly difficult. When someone becomes less capable of looking after themselves in their own home, nursing care is the most appropriate form of care to utilise. To provide the individual with the most comfort, nursing care is usually provided in a care home setting.
Elderly people and those who suffer from chronic illnesses or medical condition may find that they need help with daily tasks such as washing, cooking or dressing. This type of non-medical support often known as ‘personal care’ is given alongside medical care to ensure overall well-being in care homes.
Palliative Care is specialised medical care for people living with a serious illness such as cancer or heart failure. This type of care is focused on providing relief from the symptoms and stress of the illness as well as providing support for family members.
Care homes are equipped with the right technologies for people who need higher levels of nursing care such as peg feeding systems, wound care and monitoring systems, in order to provide them with the highest level of comfort during their care home stay.
In most circumstances, nursing care is funded by the individual receiving the care or their loved ones. However, we understand that this isn't possible for everybody. If this is the case, there are funding options from either the local authority or NHS funded nursing care. A financial assessment is required to find out if local council funding is available to you and they will be able to provide any advice or further steps to take.
For NHS Continuing Healthcare (CHC), trained care assistants will assess to see if the individual has high level nursing needs. This doesn't take into account any income, only the physical wellbeing of the care home resident.
It is important to get in contact with specific care homes to find out if they accept third-party funding before choosing to move in.
