About Aspen Court Nursing Home

Aspen Court Nursing Home has been caring for residents in Tower Hamlets for those families who want their loved ones to remain connected to the local community. The team here understands that choosing a nursing home is one of the most important decisions a family can make, and they aim to make that transition as comfortable as possible. It is a place where residents are treated as individuals, with staff working to create a warm and familiar atmosphere that feels like home.

Aspen Court Nursing Home provides nursing and personal care for up to 72 adults across three floors in a single building. At inspection, 69 residents were living at the service, including older people with physical health conditions and those living with dementia. The second floor specialises in nursing care and can accommodate up to 26 people.

Each resident has their own bedroom with en-suite bathroom, and the home includes communal living and dining areas, a main kitchen, kitchenettes on each floor, and access to a secure garden.

Inspectors identified inconsistencies in people's care plans and risk assessments that required improvement.
