About Us

We at Silverways Nursing Home are proud to offer dedicated nursing care for older people in the heart of Christchurch, a much loved coastal town within Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole. Our home provides a warm, welcoming environment where residents can feel safe, valued, and truly at home.

Nestled within the BH postcode area, our setting benefits from the gentle charm of the South West coast, offering residents a peaceful backdrop in which to enjoy their daily lives. The surrounding area of Christchurch is known for its friendly community feel, and our home reflects that same sense of belonging, creating a space where residents can relax, socialise, and enjoy familiar comforts.

Our specialisms lie in older person care, nursing care, and respite care. This means that whether a loved one requires ongoing clinical support, day to day nursing attention, or a shorter stay to allow family carers a well earned break, our team is here to help. For families, this translates to peace of mind, knowing that qualified nursing staff are on hand around the clock, that individual health needs are carefully monitored, and that each resident is treated with dignity, patience, and genuine warmth. Respite stays are approached with the same care and attention as permanent residency, ensuring guests feel just as at home during a short visit as they would over the longer term.

Our most recent Care Quality Commission inspection, dated 28 May 2026, awarded us an overall rating of Requires Improvement. We were pleased to be rated Good in the areas of Effective, Caring, and Responsive care, which reflects the compassion and skill our team brings to every interaction with residents and families. We acknowledge that our ratings in Safe and Well led were assessed as Requires Improvement, and we are wholeheartedly committed to addressing these areas. We view this feedback as an important opportunity to strengthen our practice, and we are actively working on improvements to ensure every aspect of life at Silverways meets the high standards our residents deserve.

Choosing a nursing home is one of the most important decisions a family can make, and we understand the emotions involved. If you are exploring care options for a loved one in Christchurch or the wider Bournemouth area, we warmly invite you to get in touch with us. We would be delighted to answer your questions, share more about our approach, and arrange a visit so you can experience the atmosphere of Silverways Nursing Home for yourself.
