Wraxall Road Nursing Home

About Us

Wraxall Road Nursing Home is in Cadbury Heath, South Gloucestershire. We provide nursing care for adults with a learning disability and adults who are autistic, and we can offer respite stays.

Combining nursing care with support for people who have a learning disability or who are autistic takes a particular kind of team. Health needs have to be managed properly, but the day still has to belong to the person, and the two must not be allowed to blur into one another. Our nurses and support staff work closely together with that in mind.

We plan support individually and spend time learning how each person communicates, what settles them and what makes life feel worth getting up for. Where somebody becomes distressed, we treat it as something with a cause, and finding the cause is part of the job rather than an afterthought.

People here are supported to keep in touch with family, to get out of the building regularly and to make their own choices about everyday things. Where somebody wants more independence, we work towards it steadily and at their pace.

Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good.

If you are a family member or a professional considering a placement or a respite stay, please get in touch and come and see us.
