About Farthings Nursing Home
Farthings Nursing Home is a nursing home at Thornton Cleveleys, near Blackpool. Registered nurses are part of our team at all hours, working alongside care staff who come to know each person here very well. We care for older adults, including people living with sight or hearing loss, and we offer respite stays as well as permanent places. People usually come to us when nursing need has grown beyond what could safely be managed at home, or after an illness or hospital stay that has changed the picture. We try to make that move as gentle as it can be, which mostly means listening carefully at the start and not rushing anybody into our way of doing things. Sensory loss shapes a great deal about how good care feels. We agree how best to communicate with each person, we keep belongings where their owner expects them, and we allow the time that these things properly take. The clinical side has to be dependable and we hold ourselves to that. But people live here, so food worth eating, choice about the day, familiar possessions and visitors who are genuinely welcome matter just as much. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. Please get in touch to arrange a visit.
