Nursing Care

Our nursing home in Bedfordshire provides 24-hour Nursing Care as well as Dementia Care, Residential Care, Respite Care and Palliative Care. All of our care services are delivered by highly trained care professionals and our dedicated nursing team provides nursing care for people living with a physical disability, who have high dependency needs, or who require end of life care.

Our specialist care experts are excellent at recognising which care service is the right type for you or your loved one and they have the education and experience to quickly identify any changes in the health of residents, as well as knowing when it’s necessary to involve a doctor.

What does Nursing Care mean?

This type of care is best for individuals who require 24-hour assistance with medical needs as well as personal care and daily living needs. It is also most appropriate for those who need intensive rehabilitative care, individuals with physical disabilities and for people who have long-term issues with their health.

Those living at Penrose Court Care Home have access to all the support with personal needs offered in a residential care home, but also have access to qualified, in-house registered nurses throughout the day and night, meaning that we are an ideal nursing home for individuals with care needs that require regular attention.
