Nursing Care in Furnace Green

Looking for a nursing home near Furnace Green?

Ferndale Nursing Home sits at 124 Malthouse Road in Crawley, close enough for Furnace Green families to visit regularly without a long journey. We provide 24-hour nursing care for older people aged 65 and over, including specialist support for those living with Parkinson's, and we welcome both permanent residents and those needing a respite stay while family carers take a break.

Can you help with dementia and Alzheimer's care?

Many of the families who contact us from Furnace Green are looking for dementia care that goes beyond basic supervision, and this is an area our nursing and care team is well practised in. We understand that dementia affects each person differently, and we build daily routines around what genuinely helps each individual feel calm and safe.

What good dementia care looks like day to day

Dementia care at Ferndale means consistent, familiar faces, patient communication, and a home environment that reduces confusion rather than adding to it. Our qualified nursing team is trained to support residents through the changes dementia can bring, always with dignity at the centre of how we work.

Supporting families through Alzheimer's

Alzheimer's is often the most familiar form of dementia to families, and it can bring difficult decisions about when nursing care becomes the safer, kinder option. We work closely with relatives from the Furnace Green area to talk through what stage their loved one is at, and how our 24-hour nursing support can ease the pressure that Alzheimer's often places on family carers.

What makes Ferndale feel like a good fit for your family?

We're proud to be rated Good by the Care Quality Commission and recommended on carehome.co.uk, but what really shapes daily life at Ferndale is our long-standing, qualified nursing and care team. Many have worked here for years, so residents are cared for by people who know them, not a constantly changing rota of strangers.
