Why Islington Families Choose Golders Green Nursing

We coordinate care following treatment at the Whittington Hospital in Archway, University College Hospital and Moorfields Eye Hospital on City Road. We are experienced with hospital-to-home discharge from all three.

Our nurse-led model means every client benefits from proactive clinical oversight – not just an initial assessment. Your care manager monitors progress, communicates directly with your medical team and adapts the care plan as health needs evolve.

We also maintain strong relationships with local service providers across Islington and the N1 area – from physiotherapists and pharmacists to hairdressers and chiropodists – so we can coordinate the wider support that helps our clients live well and comfortably at home.

Every care visit is recorded in real time through our PASS digital care platform. Our carers average over four years with the agency. We are CQC-registered and rated Good. All carers hold full DBS clearance, a minimum of two years’ professional experience, and complete mandatory annual training.

"I cannot speak highly enough of Golders Green Nursing. They have been working for the family for many years, starting with one member until his passing in 2019 and from then for another member of the family who passed away at the age of 96 on 29th August. The care and compassion was exemplary. During the past months, when she was being treated for ‘end of life’ we had visits from District Nurses and other outside agencies and they all commented and complimented on the care that she was receiving and could not think of any improvements that could be made. The carers became a part of the family and treated her as if she was one of their own dear parents. We will always be grateful to them for the dignity they allowed this lovely lady. When we called the office with an issue, somebody would immediately arrive and always with a solution."
