What is Nursing Care?

Nursing care refers to a specialist level of care provided by qualified nurses for individuals who have complex or ongoing medical needs that cannot be supported by general residential care alone. It is suitable for people living with chronic illnesses, physical disabilities, neurological conditions, or those recovering from surgery or injury who require daily medical attention and oversight.

At Meallmore, our nursing care is delivered in safe, well-equipped care homes across Scotland, where residents benefit from 24-hour clinical support, individualised care plans, and a dedicated team of registered nurses and experienced care staff. Our approach combines professional expertise with personal compassion, ensuring each resident receives care that not only meets their health requirements, but also supports their emotional wellbeing and dignity.

We work closely with families, GPs, and specialist healthcare providers to ensure continuity of care, especially for those managing conditions such as Parkinson’s, diabetes, stroke recovery, heart failure or cancer. Meallmore’s commitment to high-quality nursing care in Scotland means our residents and their families can feel confident, supported, and at ease every day.
