🏡 We’re searching for a quiet and welcoming 2-bedroom bungalow to help a person with multiple needs find a safe and stable home.   The ideal home would be:   -A single-story bungalow away from loud or busy areas. -In a calm cul-de-sac, close to parks, places to walk, or community spaces. -Ideally in Hertfordshire - Hatfield, Watford, Hemel Hempstead, St Albans, Welwyn, or Hertford - but we’re open to neighbouring towns like Luton, Dunstable, or Amersham.   This is an urgent need, and finding the right home will make an incredible difference to someone ready to take the next step in their journey.   If you’re a landlord who can help or know of a suitable property, we’d be so grateful to hear from you.

Did you know that nearly 1 in 5 people in the UK face significant challenges when transitioning from hospital to home, often feeling unsupported and isolated? This vulnerable moment deserves more than just medical attention—it requires compassionate, person-centred care to help people reconnect with their families and communities in ways that feel safe and comfortable. Our Community Transition Service ensures that no one has to navigate this journey alone. Ashleigh Fox, our Transforming Care Director, highlights the profound importance of involving families in this process. By working closely with multidisciplinary teams (MDTs) and families, we tailor each journey home to meet the unique needs of the individual, ensuring it’s as caring and supportive as possible. We also offer free discharge assessments to those who may need additional support, helping to bridge the gap in care for those who need it most. Together, we can advocate for compassionate, community-based support that fosters dignity, respect, and a smooth transition home. Watch the video and learn more. Nurseline Healthcare LD Network
