About Brabourne Care Centre
Brabourne Care Centre is a care home in Kent, set within a part of the country known for its peaceful countryside and strong sense of community. Families looking for nursing care for a loved one will find a place that takes its responsibilities seriously and works to create a comfortable, settled environment for residents. It can be a big decision choosing the right care home, and Brabourne aims to be somewhere families feel welcome and kept informed every step of the way.
Brabourne Care Centre is a residential care home providing personal and nursing care to 58 older people, some living with dementia. The service is purpose-built with three separate wings across three floors, each with adapted facilities. One wing specializes in dementia care.
Residents reported feeling happy and safe at the home. However, inspectors identified safety concerns with medicines management. Staff did not document where pain patches were applied, creams were not dated when opened, and medicines stock numbers did not match those recorded in administration records.
The home lacked guidance in some areas to direct staff on proper procedures.
