Brief description

Tyspane Nursing Home is registered for 69 residents who may need nursing care, within the categories of old age (58 beds), and physical disability (11 beds for adults below retirement age i.e. Adults 18-65). The home does not offer intermediate care, and there are smoking restrictions.
 
It is a purpose-built, two-storey home, in a residential area of Braunton.

It is relatively near the town centre facilities (including shops, a library, and public houses) and coastal areas. There is a regular bus service to the larger town of Barnstaple. The home has its own transport.
 
Most bedrooms are for single occupancy only, and all have en suite facilities.

Three rooms can be used as double rooms if requested. There are two lifts giving access to all areas of the home. There is a large lawned area with some seating at the front of the home, with other paved or grassed areas and car parking areas elsewhere around the home.
 
Barchester Healthcare Homes Limited owns the home.
 
Weekly fees can be obtained from the home.

They do not include the cost of theatre outings (a contribution is requested), taxis/transport, magazines/newspapers, toiletries, sweets, stationery (which are all charged at cost price), hairdressing for men and women, chiropody, and visitors meals.
 
Inspection reports produced by the Commission about the home are kept at the reception, in the home's entrance hall.
