About

Ashfield Nursing Home is a 40-bed nursing home in Nottingham providing nurse-led care for older adults, including people living with dementia or mental health conditions, and offering respite stays. Registered nurses are on duty around the clock. The Care Quality Commission rates the home Requires Improvement overall. Its Safe and Well-led areas are also rated Requires Improvement, while Effective, Caring and Responsive are rated Good.

Residents live in one of 40 single bedrooms across two floors, which can be personalised with familiar belongings. Recent refurbishment has added new flooring, furniture and bathroom fittings. Meals are cooked on site from seasonal produce and adapted to individual needs, including texture-modified diets. Activities are led by a dedicated Activities Co-ordinator and include group sessions in communal rooms, visiting entertainers and gentle exercise. Quieter one-to-one activities are offered in bedrooms, and the gardens are available for time outdoors. Families are welcome to join residents for meals.
