About Sandrock Nursing Home

We are a nursing home in Wallasey, on the Wirral, caring for older people who need nursing support, including people living with dementia. We also welcome people for respite stays where a period of nursing care is what is needed rather than a permanent move. Having qualified nurses here at all hours means that when somebody's health is complicated or changeable, it can be looked after without them having to move again or spend their time travelling back and forth to hospital. That is one of the main reasons families come to us. But nursing is the background to the day rather than the whole of it, and what people actually notice on a visit is whether the staff are kind, whether anyone has time to sit down for a few minutes and whether their relative seems settled. Dementia asks something particular of a nursing home. A day that keeps its shape, faces that are familiar, and staff who can tell the difference between somebody being awkward and somebody being frightened, uncomfortable or in pain. Much of what looks like difficult behaviour is a person trying to communicate, and a team who know somebody well stand a far better chance of working out what. Families are welcome here and we would always rather you came and formed your own view of the place. Please contact us and we will arrange a time for you to visit.
