About Us

Orchard House Care Centre is a nursing home in Newport on the Isle of Wight. We provide nursing care for older people and younger adults, including people living with dementia and people who have a physical disability.

Having qualified nurses on site at all hours is what allows us to look after people whose health needs are genuinely complex. Medication, wound care, careful attention to nutrition, pain and skin, and noticing early when somebody is becoming unwell are the ordinary content of our days. On an island, where a hospital transfer is a bigger undertaking than it is on the mainland, being able to manage health needs properly in the home matters even more.

It also means more of our residents have family living further away, sometimes across the water, so keeping relatives genuinely informed is part of the work rather than an afterthought. We would rather ring with something small than have somebody find out late.

For residents with a physical disability, the right equipment and staff who know each person's preferred way of transferring are what keep a life from shrinking to the size of a chair. With dementia we work on familiar faces and a calm pace, and we ask families for the history that helps us reach somebody.

The Care Quality Commission has not yet given us an overall rating. Come and see the place, speak to the nurses on duty, and ask how we handle the difficult nights.

More about the care at Orchard House Care Centre

What each type of care involves, and the questions worth asking when you call or visit.

Older Person Care

Keeping relatives genuinely informed is part of the work rather than an afterthought, this home says, adding that it would rather ring with something small than have a family find out late. That matters here because more residents have family further away, sometimes across the water. For an older person the daily pattern is help with washing and dressing, medication given and recorded, meals and company, with qualified nurses on site at all hours. Ask how many staff and how many nurses are on through the night. Ask also how a routine is agreed when somebody moves in, and how often the home will be in touch.

Dementia

Sixty places are registered here, and dementia care is one of five categories on the licence alongside nursing and physical disability. The home says it works on familiar faces and a calm pace, and that it asks families for the detail that helps. Since the CQC has not yet inspected the service, there is no rating to set against that. Ask how distress is handled on a difficult afternoon, what is done if a resident tries to leave, and how a plan changes as dementia advances. Ask what dementia training the nurses and care staff receive, and who leads on it in the building.

Physical Disability

Staff who know each person's preferred way of transferring are what this home points to where a physical disability is involved, together with the right equipment. It argues that is what keeps a life from shrinking to the size of a chair. Ask how a handling assessment is carried out and recorded, and what access is like between bedrooms, lounges and outside.

Younger Adults

Registered since 21 April 2026 under Scarborough Hall, this home names younger adults alongside older people and nursing care. A younger person with nursing needs usually wants a week that looks different from the one around them. Ask who of a similar age lives here now, and how the day is shaped for them.

Nursing Care

On an island a hospital transfer is a bigger undertaking than on the mainland, which is the argument Orchard House Care Centre makes for having qualified nurses on site at all hours. Medication, wound care, attention to nutrition, pain and skin, and noticing early when somebody is becoming unwell are described as the ordinary content of its days. People generally need that level when health needs are genuinely complex rather than stable. Indicative South East fees run from £1350 to £1750 a week, while the Isle of Wight council usually pays about £950 to £1150. NHS Funded Nursing Care of about £235 a week goes towards the nursing element for eligible residents and reduces the bill.
