Lister House.

Lister House Nursing Home, CQC rating 2009: 3 stars Excellent, established in 1990, provides 24-hour nursing care for 32 ladies and gentlemen for both long and short stays. Our Certificate of Registration enables us to care for 32 adults with Nursing / Residential Care and Palliative Care / Terminal Illness

'One of our many special ladies lived here until she was 103 years old, and what a lot she taught us.'

Our intention is to provide care that allows our ladies and gentlemen an enjoyable life with maximum independence and dignity in safe and comfortable surroundings. We aim to do this by providing the appropriate degree of care and support needed to meet the individual needs of each person.

We hope the individual care matched with a happy, homely environment, will encourage a happy, healthy life.

Prior to admission, everyone is assessed by Matron or a qualified Nurse, to ensure we can meet personal, social and nursing needs. Trained nurses will holistically assess all clients on admission and an individual care plan formulated with the client and/or their family. This care plan will be based on historical, current and future needs and expectations, and will follow a process of continual review and evaluation.

An annual review in the form of a written report collated from the homes records, staff information, outside agencies e.g. GP, Specialist Nurses and input from the client, their family and/or friends will be arranged.

24 hour professional nursing care is delivered by Registered General Nurses and trained Care Assistants. Medical care is provided by the clients GP of choice providing the GP is practicing within the area, therefore it may be necessary to change GP if being admitted from outside the area.

All medication prescribed by the clients GP or hospital is administered by Registered Nurses. All clients have a right to refuse medication, if this arises, discussion the client and GP will be arranged. All medications (including homely remedies) brought into the home must be declared and/or handed over to the Nurse-in-Charge who will check with the prescribing GP, before handing over to the client. This is to prevent overdosing and interaction of medicines. Clients requesting to self medicate, will be assessed and if considered acceptable must comply with Lister House Nursing Home Self-Medicating Policy.

Inside the home, we have a number of communal rooms; we have two lounges, a conservatory and two dining rooms. These rooms are for relaxing, and for social activities.

We offer single and shared bedrooms, en-suite and non en-suite. These rooms are the personal and private accommodation of the person(s) living in that room. Lister House Nursing Home has 29 bedrooms in total: 14 Single En-Suite, 12 Single Non En-Suite and 3 Shared. 14 of which are on the ground floor, the remaining bedrooms are on the first floor and are accessible by a passenger lift that accepts a wheelchair.

All bedrooms are furnished with a bed, wardrobe, chest of drawers, bedside drawers and an armchair. Clients may at our discretion bring their own personal belongings and furnishings to personalise their room. Each room has a telephone point for use with the pay phone for incoming and outgoing calls, a television aerial point and a nurse call system. Private lines are available through BT.

Outside, we have parking and a garden with seating in front of the home and a secure open-air courtyard within the home.

Clients are offered a menu with a choice of home cooked meals using seasonal fresh produce. We provide for special diets. Drinks and home baked cakes and biscuits are always available. We welcome any suggestions for the menu. Recipes that have been donated by clients in the past have proved very popular.

Social and Recreational activities are organised for those wishing to participate, of which family & friends are welcome to join in.

Outings are arranged for those clients wishing to do so. Visits out with family and friends are encouraged and supported.
