Poplars provides residential, bespoke nursing and personal care for those whose needs cannot be met in the community. Registered providers of the care, Dr Narinder Narhlya and wife Sandeep Sonia Shehmar, take a hands-on approach in overseeing the secure and happy environment in the home, which trades under Poplars Support & Care Services Ltd.

With a strong emphasis on family, Poplars Nursing Home continues to build on its established reputation as a benchmark for care in the heart of the Midlands. The home, with 37 beds, is family-run but enjoys the visionary leadership of a corporate, with a major £3.5m investment currently being undertaken on site.
Culturally sensitive, Poplars endeavors to embrace personal faith and dietary preferences within its gold standard of individualised nursing excellence.
Central to its care ethos is a determination to partner best clinical outcomes and dignity with liberal dispensations of kindness, laughter and happiness.
Most important is fostering a sense of home and belonging for those who live with us. Residents are encouraged to partake in weekly stimulation exercise activities, including reminiscence therapy, quizzes, sing-songs and other professional music entertainment. Feedback is always welcome.
An open door policy exists for visitors and for those who wish to view the home for the possible admission of loved-ones.
No appointments are necessary and those wishing to view are positively encouraged to ‘drop in’ unannounced.
A strong nursing and care support team is led by former hospital Nursing Sister and nursing director Gill Williams. Under her management the home has built excellent relationships with social workers, Care Quality Commission inspectors and local authority commissioning officers.
Poplars caters for both those with high dependency and general nursing needs and can offer, in partnership with the home’s excellent GP and relatives, the approved Sandwell Supportive Care Pathway for end of life.
