Nursing Care

Our nurses are educated to recognise signs and symptoms of illnesses, and are fantastic at recognising when nursing care may be the best option for our residents. 

Nursing care can ensure that any changes in health are rapidly detected, and that a doctor may be contacted quickly if necessary. Our nursing home in Aberdeen provides our residents with the assurance of professional nursing care, while still keeping their independence.

What is Nursing Care?

Nursing care is for residents who require medical and personal care 24 hours a day, seven days a week, including those in need of palliative care. Individuals who require rigorous rehabilitative care (such as after a stroke), people with physical limitations and individuals with long-term health concerns may fall into this category. Rubislaw Park is fitted with specialised beds for people with specific medical needs, as well as a variety of mobility aids.

To provide the greatest quality standard of nursing home care, we have expertise in many areas, especially in dementia care. Rubislaw Park residents have total access to all of the personal assistance that’s available in a residential care home, as well as the addition of qualified, on-site nursing professionals no matter the time of the day, including those skilled in providing palliative care. This makes them an excellent care provider for people who have medical conditions that need constant attention.

Nursing Care FAQs

The type of nursing care received in a care home can vary depending on the needs of the individual. However, at Rubislaw Park Care Home, we provide a range of nursing services from medication management and wound care, to assistance with activities of daily living and support for those with physical disabilities, long-term health conditions, including palliative care and sensory impairment as a few examples.

You should consider nursing care if you notice any of the below happening:

  • Worsening chronic health conditions, such as diabetes, heart disease, or dementia
  • Difficulty performing activities of daily living (ADLs), such as bathing, dressing, or grooming
  • Recent falls, injuries, hospitalisations or emergency room visits
  • Significant weight loss or changes in appetite
  • Increased confusion or forgetfulness
  • Difficulty managing medications or complying with treatment plans
  • Need for specialised medical equipment or care, such as oxygen therapy or wound care

Our nursing staff will assess the level of care that is needed and provide advice on the most appropriate nursing care approach for you or your loved one. It is important when making the decision to move into a care home that you communicate openly with your loved ones and ensure that the prospective resident is involved in the decision-making process.

Rubislaw Park Care Home takes the safety of its residents very seriously. We achieve this by ensuring adequate staffing levels are achieved, that the nursing staff is appropriately trained and qualified, that protocols for infection control and medication management are implemented, and that regular safety audits and assessments are carried out. We also put the relevant security measures in place to prohibit restricted access and to protect the safety of residents.
