Nutrition-led Dementia Nursing Care in Northumberland
This business plan presents the proposed development and operation of Panshield Manor, a purpose-designed residential care home specialising in Dementia Nursing Care, located near Shotley Bridge in Northumberland.
We define "Dementia Nursing Care" as those living with dementia who may also require round-the-clock nursing care.
The plan outlines the strategic, operational and financial framework required to establish a top-quality care service, which meets the regulatory standards of the Care Quality Commission and which caters to the growing demand for specialist Dementia Nursing Care within the United Kingdom.
The approach taken by Panshield Manor reflects the commercial realities of the Dementia Nursing Care sector, and the evolving expectations and needs of residents and their families. There is wide-spread recognition that traditional, large-scale, institutional care facilities do not always provide the most appropriate environment for those living with dementia. This plan proposes a smaller, more personalised care experience, underpinned by informed design, strong staffing structures and a unique focus on nutrition and physical wellbeing to mitigate the progression of comorbidities with all forms of dementia.
Central to the business is the belief that care should encompass the exceptional provision of safe and effective delivery, healthy surroundings, respecting life-long relationships and routines, and incorporating nutrition to support physical, mental and emotional health.
The vision for Panshield Manor is to found an exceptional, small-scale dementia nursing care home where people living with all forms of dementia, at all stages, can rely upon us to ensure their safety, health, comfort and happiness. Through outstanding regulatory compliance, considered design, sustainable practices, compassionate care and an emphasis on wellbeing, Panshield Manor aims to demonstrate how residential dementia care can mix the personal with the professional.
Panshield Manor will provide outstandingly resident-centric dementia care within a calm and supportive environment. The home will diligently prioritise safety, CQC compliance and financial probity, but will introduce a focus on nutrition so that residents live incredibly well physically, so that they can maintain cherished relationships, passtimes, and in so doing living their lives how they previously chose to live.
