Nursing Care

At Woodlands Care Home, we are proud to offer nursing care on a 24-hour basis. Our care home is equipped with nursing care equipment to ensure we tailor our care home to the people who reside with us. Our expert team is on hand to support our residents whenever they need it and is able to help you recognise when it might be time to consider Nursing Care for you or a loved one.

We have an exceptional team at our nursing home in Aberdeen who are able to support older people with a number of mental and physical health conditions. They always go above and beyond to ensure individuals’ care needs are exceeded and that well-being is consistently their top priority. We also provide compassionate palliative care at our care home when residents are nearing the final stages of their lives.

What is Nursing Care?

Nursing Care is a type of care designed for individuals that need around-the-clock personal care and medical care. There are some different types of care needs that we believe are better suited for Nursing Care than others. This tends to include residents that have physical disabilities, long-term health issues, and those who need rehabilitative care and palliative care. Every individual that resides with us has access to our nursing professionals 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

Every resident is provided with their own room, finished to the highest standards where they can add personal touches to make it a personalised and private space. Each bedroom will come with a profiling bed and nurse call system as a standard. If required, other nursing equipment can be added to a room to aid with individual needs. Despite a person’s nursing needs, staff encourages residents to join in on the activities being provided on a daily basis as well as utilise the facilities with assistance from staff.
