At the Abbendon we offer a secure, homely and comfortable environment so our residents can lead fulfilled lives.Being a relatively small home allows us to function as a close community. We provide the quality nursing care that our residents require, always to the highest standard and we treat all our residents with the respect and dignity they deserve.

Quality Care

At Abbendon we are very proud of our professional, helpful staff; immense effort is put into maintaining the constantly high standards achieved in the home. The majority of our staff are either NVQ trained or working towards their NVQ. We are firmly committed to investing in our staff and all staff receive  extensive training. A high patient to staff ratio allows us to provide individually assessed care to each resident. Our team of Registered Nurses, through close liaison with a GP, are able to nurse unwell residents in the home usually avoiding admission to hospital which can be distressing for residents.
