The Limes is not registered as nursing home, therefore we cannot offer nursing care needs. The Limes have a scheduled day once a week for the GP’s visit. In an event that any Resident should need attention from the community nursing team, it is requested via the community nursing hub. The Limes has developed a good relationship between the community nursing team & GP practice. The Limes also offer weekly visit from the hairdresser, 6weeks visit from Chiropodist, yearly visits from an optician as required and by request visit from mobile Dentist.
