Positioned at Wombwell Gardens in the town of Northfleet Wombwell Hall is a 120-bed care home offering specialist residential nursing care and palliative care for those living with dementia, Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, confusion, and other similar conditions.
The purpose-built care home is in a quieter part of Northfleet’s urban community. Surrounded by green space and tree canopies, the home is set in a pleasant and peaceful position yet benefits from easy access to town-based amenities.
Having recently benefitted from a thoughtfully designed refurbishment, the communal areas such as the dining rooms, lounges, day rooms, conservatory, hair salon and treatment rooms have been designed to enhance the daily lives of everyone who calls Wombwell Hall their home.
Kindness is at the heart of everything the care team does at Wombwell Hall; person-centred care and wellbeing is top priority. Personalised care plans consider not only medical, personal, and dietary needs, but also the individual's likes and dislikes, religious preferences, and suggestions from family members.
As part of a person-centred care delivery plan, individuals are encouraged and supported to participate in their pastimes and hobbies or embark on learning something new in a fun and inclusive environment.
Wombwell Hall has many places in which to relax, dine, exercise, socialise and be creative. The landscaped garden and patio are the perfect spot to spend time with friends and family, or with one of the many neighbourhood groups or volunteers who visit.

My wife has Parkinsons and dementia and is 89 years of age. Since my wife was admitted in June this year, I have visited her every day. From day 1 I have been treated with kindness and friendliness, I feed my wife her dinner always, and the food is excellent and nourishing. There is always a choice of the two to choose from. The staff, from the matron down to the cleaning, are very good and helpful when I am present, to the residents and visitor. The activities staff are enthusiastic, inventive and have varied programmes.

Since the arrival of the manager in Pickwick House at Wombwell Hall, I have noticed a big difference in very little time. The team appear to be less rushed and there seems to be more of them on duty at any one time. It is lovely to see more residents in the day room and there is a lot more interaction with the team. A trip out to the café this afternoon - how wonderful.
Well done team Pickwick.

The nursing staff are very helpful and accommodating. On my pre-visit was shown all over the residence and I was very impressed. Nothing is too much trouble. Since my mother was admitted it has taken a lot of worry and pressure away from me and I now can relax and concentrate on other matters knowing she is in good hands. The carers are very supportive and very kind, listening to my concerns and putting my mind at rest. I can and will thoroughly recommend Wombwell Hall if asked.

Although I think the staff are dedicated to their jobs, I feel sometimes there seems to be a lack of organisation and urgency to deal with issues.
I appreciate that the staff are under a lot of pressure due to shortage of staff and funding.

My mother has been at Wombwell Hall (Pickwick House) for nearly 3 years. We spent a lot of time investigating all the care homes in the area and found that Wombwell Hall was the best in every respect. The staff are clearly dedicated and caring for all of the residents. It requires a special kind of dedication to care for the elderly and they have it. I would have no hesitation in recommending Wombwell Hall.

My brother spent the last 6 months of his life at Wombwell Hall. He suffered from MND which left him at times very frustrated at his inability to communicate, which in turn made him very demanding at times. We have to commend the staff for their patience over that period of time. However he did often complain about the night staff treating him as a dementia patient, he understood exactly where his life was going.

The only problem is that some residents keep shouting and banging on tables at night and during the day - very upsetting for visitors and grandchildren.

Thank you for your kind comments regarding the staff and the Home during your stay at Wombwell. Some Residents have limited abilities and the shouting and banging of objects is their way of communicating. We apologise if this caused any upset to your family members and visitors but are pleased to hear that your stay overall was a positive one.

Richard has enjoyed a varied career. After beginning his post college working life in social care, he then focussed on working with teenagers and young people. This in turn led him, (by accident he will tell you) to take to the high seas, and spent a number of years on cruise ships around the globe. Upon returning to dry land, Richard worked in a number of related industries both in the UK and for a short period abroad - hospitality, entertainment and show management, including media and local radio - he even became an award winner whilst managing a seaside pier and theatre!
However, this led to Rich being headhunted back into health and social care management, which is where he has stayed for the past 15 years. He has worked as a Home Manager, General Manager, Operations Director, Regional Manager and Director - and now is delighted to join Belmont Healthcare as the General Manager at Wombwell Hall. A little care village with a big heart and ambitious plans for the future...
Richard's whole career has centred around the same basic core principles and values, from day one. A love, respect and duty of care for people, a passionate commitment to the most outstanding customer service which includes caring - really, really caring. And that is as true today as it ever was - and what you will find at Wombwell Hall.
