What is Nursing Care?

Nursing care is designed for people who need continuous medical attention alongside personal support to manage daily tasks. Available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, this advanced level of care is ideal for those living with physical limitations, chronic health conditions, or critical illnesses. It is provided by a dedicated team of healthcare professionals who are highly trained to deliver expert medical care while maintaining a compassionate and respectful approach to each individual’s unique needs. Nursing care focuses on ensuring that residents receive not only the medical support they require but also the emotional and personal care that enhances their overall wellbeing.

Our nursing staff will collaborate with other healthcare providers and ensure that a resident’s care plan accurately reflects their health and well-being needs.

If you notice any of the following signs in your loved one, it may be time to consider nursing care:

  • Difficulty performing activities of daily living (ADLs), such as washing, dressing, or grooming
  • Worsening chronic health conditions, such as diabetes, heart disease, or dementia

  • Recent falls or accidents
  • Significant weight loss or changes in appetite
  • Increased confusion or forgetfulness
  • Difficulty managing medications or complying with treatment plans

Our nursing team will be able to assess the level of care that is required and provide guidance on the most suitable type of care for your family member. It is important to communicate openly with your loved one and involve them in the decision-making process as much as possible.

Ensuring the safety of our residents remains a top priority at Dalgety Bay. This is achieved by providing adequate staffing levels, ensuring that our nursing staff is properly trained and qualified, implementing protocols for infection control and medication management, and conducting regular safety audits and assessments. We have also put security measures in place to prevent unauthorised access to our home to further protect residents’ safety.

At Dalgety Bay 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.
