Moorland Gardens Care Home

Moorland Gardens is a nursing home supporting up to 80 older people, most living with dementia. The service includes a ten-bedded unit designed as a designated setting with enhanced infection prevention measures. The unit features redecorated spaces and new vinyl flooring, with dedicated staff who work exclusively in this area and do not rotate to other parts of the home. Staff have a separate entry point and dedicated rooms for putting on and removing personal protective equipment. New admissions to the designated unit follow safe processes that keep them separated from people and staff in other areas of the home. Bedrooms are clutter-free and each includes toilet and washing facilities. The service demonstrates good infection prevention and control practices in line with guidelines for designated care settings.
