About Palm Court Nursing Home

Palm Court Nursing Home is in Dawlish, on the south Devon coast, providing nursing care for older people and younger adults. Our nurses work alongside the care team at every hour of the day, which means medical needs can be looked after without anyone having to leave the place they now call home. We care for residents living with dementia, for people with a physical disability, for those managing mental health conditions, and for adults with a learning disability or who are autistic. Good nursing care is largely about attention to detail, keeping skin healthy, medication right, meals appealing and pain properly managed, and that detail is what we hold ourselves to. Just as important is the ordinary side of life, which is why the day here is shaped by what residents want rather than by a schedule on a wall. Family and friends are part of the picture. We keep relatives informed, welcome them at times that suit them, and involve them in decisions wherever the resident wants that. Respite stays are available for people who need nursing care for a short period. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is Good. If you are looking at nursing care in this part of Devon, please arrange a visit. Seeing the place on a normal afternoon tells you far more than any description we could write.
