Nightingales HomeCare

Support that fits around your life

Home care can help with getting ready, medication, meals, shopping, appointments, mobility or simply regular company. It may be useful after illness or hospital, or when everyday tasks have gradually become harder.

The service is managed separately from Nettlestead Care Home. The Nightingales team will listen, assess what would be helpful and provide a clear care plan and quotation.

What families say about Nettlestead

Mike Temple

In Nettlestead Retirement Home and its team we found a jewel that loved, cherished and looked after her to the end. Thank you so much.

Sue Digby

Thank you and all your staff for all you have done to care for Peggy. It is such a relief to myself and my family to know that she was in such good hands.

Joyce Lawrence

On behalf of myself and my family I would like to say a very sincere thank you for all you have done for Pearl during all the years she spent with you. I know she was happy with you. Many thanks to you all.

Lizzie Hardy

I feel part of the Nettlestead family. It is a wonderful care home and I just want to thank you for having the vision to make it feel like a home from home.

Sandie Archer

My nan had three and a half extremely happy years at Nettlestead, where she was treated with much love and kindness. I viewed many homes in the surrounding area and got more and more disheartened with each one. Nettlestead was different.

Tessa Cheek

With you and all the kind girls at Nettlestead, Mum passed one of the most contented periods in her whole life. We cannot be grateful enough for everything you did to make her comfortable and welcome.
