Weatherstones House Nursing Home

About Us

Weatherstones House Nursing Home in Neston cares for older people and younger adults who need qualified nursing support.

Having nurses on site at every hour means that clinical needs are met here, and that people can stay with us as their health changes rather than having to move again. We keep close attention on medication, pain relief, skin care and nutrition, and we involve GPs and community teams early rather than waiting for small concerns to become serious ones.

Around that, we try to make the day worth having. Mornings are flexible, food is cooked on the premises and adapted to individual tastes, and support with washing and dressing is given at the resident's pace rather than the rota's. Company is there for those who want it, and peace for those who would rather have their own room, the radio and a visit from family.

We want to be straightforward about where we stand. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is requires improvement. We would rather tell you ourselves and answer your questions than have you find it elsewhere, and that work is our focus at present.

We also offer respite care, including nursing support for a few weeks after a hospital stay. Families are welcome and we encourage you to stay involved.
