Trying to find a nursing care home to meet my dads needs is a nightmare, we have seen 4 today none of which inspire us with any confidence that they will be suitable. He is 71 and is challenging around personal care, physically fit and well and otherwise no management problem. He has been on an elderly ward for 6 months and they have been brilliant. Before that he had just started in residential care which was awful as they could not cope and it caused safeguarding issues. We had to get him sectioned for his own safety and he went into this ward. We have just been awarded funded nursing care. Feeling very despondent at present, as he needs the same level of care to continue to keep him stable, but not sure of these places. Please can anyone shed any light on good nursing care home in the Essex area, we are very stressed!
