Care home admissions during the Covid-19 pandemic

Safe admissions into our care homes includes the option for new residents to self-isolate in the comfort of their own home for 11 days, before joining us in the care home where they will be tested for Covid-19 and supported to self-isolate for 3 more days until the result of the test is known.

Our bright and airy nursing home is situated in the stunning Notting Hill area of London. Located in a vibrant part of Westminster, close to Latimer Road tube station on the Hammersmith & City and Circle lines, the home has access to the capital’s wonderful attractions.

Our team pride themselves on creating a welcoming and homely family environment and do everything we can to make the transition to Princess Louise as smooth as possible for our residents and those closest to them.

The home has cosy lounges, which are the perfect setting for residents to unwind and enjoy a good book or spend time with their visitors.

Princess Louise also has an activities room, which acts as the hub of the nursing home – almost like our very own social centre. This is where our residents enjoy a wide range of stimulating and inspiring activities that are truly person-centred. You can find us up to all sorts. From baking and doing arts and crafts to listening to live musical entertainment.

We even have our very own sensory room, where residents can relax while enjoying a multi-sensory experience. The room is complete with comfortable seating, optic lights, with tranquil music playing.

Finally, we have a very large garden which includes a water feature, sensory planting and even has raised flower beds and a greenhouse. Our residents, many of whom enjoy gardening, love to sow seeds or tend to the flowers and plants, thanks to the easy reach beds. During the warmer months, they relax in the seating areas and admire the gardens.

Care with kindness

The team cares for our residents as if they were members of our own family, providing round-the-clock nursing care, dementia care, palliative care and respite care.

The kind and caring nature of the staff was something that was praised in the home’s most recent Care Quality Commission (CQC) report from the care and health sector watchdog. We were rated an overall Good in the unannounced inspection, with the areas of safety, care, responsiveness and leadership all praised.

The staff were really proud to read the glowing quotes and extracts from our residents and loved ones in the report. We set out every day to make sure our residents are well cared for, happy and safe and this is a testament to all their hard work.
