About Banksfield Nursing Home

Banksfield Nursing Home brings together professional nursing care and a genuine sense of community in the heart of Lancashire. Families looking for support for an older loved one will find a home that takes its responsibilities seriously, with staff who are committed to making residents feel comfortable and valued. Lancashire itself offers a warm, close-knit setting, and that same spirit carries through into daily life at Banksfield.

This nursing home provides personal and nursing care for up to 42 people aged 65 and over, currently supporting 27 residents. The service operates dementia care on the ground floor and nursing care on the upper floor.

Safeguarding processes are in place to protect people from abuse, with staff receiving training and understanding the procedures to follow. Staff have been recruited safely, and the manager ensures adequate staffing levels throughout the day and night based on assessed needs.

However, the home had not addressed all issues from the previous inspection. Systems for managing and overseeing medicines were found to be unsafe, placing residents at risk of harm.
