The Two Types of Care Homes in the UK
In the UK, there are primarily two types of care homes: residential care homes and nursing homes.
Residential care homes provide facilities in accommodation and personal care, such as help with meals, bathing, and dressing.
On the other hand, nursing homes, like Stanfield, offer all the support found in a residential home but with the addition of high-quality on-site nursing care services.

Communal Spaces
Our communal areas, including our principal lounge and sitting rooms, are designed to foster a sense of community to complement our nursing care services.
Equipped with televisions for shared viewing, these spaces offer a perfect setting for socialising, enjoying group activities, or simply relaxing.
Dining Rooms
Our welcoming dining rooms serve as the heart of Stanfield Nursing Home’s care facilities. People we care for enjoy meals here together, which not only encourages social interaction but also promotes a sense of family. Some people also prefer to dine in other areas. We make sure that everyone eats where they feel comfortable, which is a part of expressing their choice on a daily basis.
We understand the importance of nutritious, balanced and enjoyable meals, and our talented chefs go above and beyond to ensure a diverse menu catering to various dietary needs. From vegetarian options available at all meals to an exciting array of main courses, desserts and snacks, we endeavour to please every palate.
Whether you prefer traditional dishes or enjoy exploring new flavours, our kitchen is committed to providing excellent culinary experiences, as part of our holistic nursing care services.
Garden
Our well-tended care home garden provides an opportunity for people to enjoy the outdoors, soak up the sun, or engage in gardening activities.
This outdoor space also serves as a sanctuary for relaxation and reflection, while bird feeders attract a variety of local wildlife for people to observe and enjoy. It also offers a space for people to engage in their hobbies like gardening. We strongly believe in making our home their home.
Additional Facilities
Our care home facilities at Stanfield are designed to create a homely environment. This includes our efficient in-house laundry service that ensures everyday comfort for our residents. We also offer a collection of large print books and daily periodicals, promoting engagement and mental stimulation.
Levels of Care Homes in the UK
In the UK, care homes are categorised based on the level of care they provide: residential, nursing, and specialist dementia care homes.
Stanfield Nursing Home offers comprehensive nursing care services. By combining our care home facilities, expert staff and other services, we ensure that people’s medical and personal needs are catered for.
What is the Difference Between a Care Home and Nursing Home?
While both care homes and nursing homes provide a level of personal care, the primary difference lies in the medical support available. Nursing homes, like Stanfield, have registered nurses on site 24/7 and can provide medical care, catering to individuals with more complex health needs. Nursing care services that address medical care include wound care, administration of medication, and monitoring vital signs.
At Stanfield, our nursing care also includes specialised services like diversional therapy, physiotherapy when required at an extra cost, and personalised diet planning, depending on individual needs.
