About St Andrew's Nursing and Care Home

St Andrew's Nursing and Care Home brings together professional nursing care and a genuine sense of warmth in the Lincolnshire countryside. Families looking for support for a loved one will find a team that understands how important it is to feel at home, even when circumstances have changed. The home's setting in this quietly beautiful part of England provides a calm and familiar backdrop for everyday life.

St Andrew's Nursing and Care Home accommodates up to 45 older and younger adults who require residential and nursing care, including some with memory loss. At the time of inspection, 33 people were living at the service near Sleaford.

The home had quality assurance processes in place, but audits proved ineffective and failed to identify shortfalls in service delivery. Care records were not always accurate or sufficiently detailed to guide staff on meeting people's nutritional needs effectively.
