Cheltenham’s nursing homes offer high-quality, complex care for older adults who need round-the-clock medical support. Delivered by experienced registered nurses, this care includes help with injections, wound dressing, incontinence, breathing difficulties, and long-term neurological conditions such as Multiple Sclerosis or Motor Neurone Disease.
Many people move into nursing homes after a hospital stay, following a Discharge to Assess (D2A) plan. Staff are well-versed with these residents and know how to look after complex wounds or intravenous medication. With plenty of GP surgeries, pharmacies and supporting professionals like chiropodists and physiotherapists nearby in Cheltenham, you can feel confident in the quality of supporting care available.
All nursing homes we list are regulated by the Care Quality Commission (CQC), and many are rated ‘Outstanding’ and ‘Good’, the highest two tiers. Monkscroft Care Centre - rated ‘Outstanding’ - is run by the Orders of St John and caters to all levels of nursing care as well as palliative care and physical disabilities, all within a modern and purpose-built setting. Convalescent care is also available in Barchester Healthcare’s Badgeworth Court - also ‘Outstanding’ - where residents enjoy many luxurious facilities like landscaped gardens and an on-site hair and beauty salon.
