About Park

Stanley Park is a nursing home in Stanley, County Durham, caring for people who need qualified nursing support alongside help with daily living. We care for older people and younger adults, support residents living with dementia or a mental health condition, look after people with a physical disability, and offer respite stays for shorter periods. Having nurses on site means health needs can be met here as they change, so people do not have to move on at the point when familiar surroundings matter most. We manage long term conditions, provide wound and continence care, and offer end of life care with dignity and as little disruption as possible. Alongside the nursing, we work hard to keep ordinary life going. Residents decide when to get up, where to spend their time, what they eat and how much company they want. Meals are cooked on the premises and preferences are remembered. Our staff take time to learn what settles a particular resident and what unsettles them, which matters greatly for anyone living with dementia or managing a mental health condition. Families are welcome through the day and we keep relatives closely informed, particularly when health needs change. We have not yet received an overall rating from the Care Quality Commission. We say that plainly and are happy to answer any question about how we work. Please contact us if you would like to visit.
