About Us

The Margaret Thatcher Infirmary is a nursing home in the London borough of Kensington and Chelsea. We care for older people who need nursing support, and we offer respite stays for those needing nursing care for a short period.

Having qualified nurses on site around the clock means we can look after people whose health is genuinely complicated and keep looking after them as things change, rather than moving somebody on at the point continuity matters most. Wound care, pain, continence, nutrition, medication and moving safely are all managed properly here, and a good deal that would otherwise mean a trip to hospital can be handled here instead.

That clinical capacity is not the point on its own, though. Nursing care delivered without thought turns a person into a round of tasks, and we work deliberately against it. People here choose when they get up, what they wear, what is on their plate and how they spend the afternoon. We knock, we explain what we are about to do, and we wait to be told it is all right to go ahead.

The people we care for have long histories and strong views, and both deserve respect. We take time to learn how somebody has always done things, because keeping those habits going is most of what makes a place feel like somewhere you live.

We have not yet been given an overall rating by the Care Quality Commission.
