About Bridge House
Bridge House provides residential, nursing, respite and end-of-life care for people with or without dementia, on a short- or long-term basis. Its nurses and carers work around the clock, with personal care plans developed alongside residents and families. The home also helps residents access local GPs and dentists for routine appointments.
Daily life is supported by an experienced team led by a registered nurse and dementia specialist. Residents can join outings to museums and garden centres, while local choirs, musicians and activity providers visit the home. Rooms can be personalised with cherished belongings, and each resident receives support to settle into the community.
