Bridgewood House - Enter and View Report

On 16th and 20th March 2022 we visited Bridgewood House, a nursing and residential care home in Enfield. This report outlines our findings and recommendations from our visit.

Part of the local Healthwatch programme is to undertake ‘Enter and View’ visits.

Mandated by the Health and Social Care Act 2012, the visits enable trained Healthwatch staff and volunteers (Authorised Representatives) to visit health and care services - such as hospitals, care homes, GP practices, dental surgeries and pharmacies.

This report covers our visit to Bridgewood House nursing and residential care home.

The home provides personal and nursing care to older people and younger adults, with specialist care available for Dementia, Learning Disability, Physical Disability, Sensory Impairment and Mental Health.

Up to 70 people may be accommodated, at the time of the visits 66 were in residence.

The home has 25 staff, including full, part-time and where necessary agency.
