Canford Manor Nursing Home

About Us

Canford Manor Nursing Home is in Lee On The Solent. We care for older people who need nursing support, including those living with dementia, and we offer respite stays alongside permanent places.

Having registered nurses on site around the clock means clinical needs are met in the home rather than through repeated trips to hospital. Wound care, catheters, diabetes, pain relief and the gradual changes that come with frailty are managed by people who already know the person, in surroundings they know. Families can ring and speak to somebody who can actually tell them how their relative has been that day.

Most of good nursing care is small things done reliably and on time. Pressure care that does not slip. Mouth care that is not skipped. Someone sitting with a person who is frightened at three in the morning. Those are the things worth judging us on.

The other half of the job is a life worth getting up for. Residents choose their routines, their rooms are their own, and nobody joins in with anything out of politeness. With dementia we keep the surroundings calm and familiar, keep staffing as consistent as we can, and treat distress as something with a cause.

Being close to the water, a change of scene is easy to arrange.

Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. Please come and visit Canford Manor.
