The Grange

My step father came for a weeks respite, he has Parkinson's and dementia. The care during his stay was exceptional, he was treated with care, kindness and dignity at all times. All the staff from care staff, management and catering staff were very professional yet added a personal touch. They were able to meet all of his needs, including medication, care and diet. The care met all his individual needs, as well as the activities arranged for him and the other residents. The home has such a homely atmosphere, I would recommend The grange to short and long term stays.

Heartfelt thanks to everyone on the amazing work you all do

I would highly recommend The Grange care home .

The Grange team always go above and beyond, though they'll tell you this is just "normal." For us, as family members, it's so reassuring to know that each and every one of them truly cares. I couldn't ask for better.

My Mum was welcomed into the Grange in December 2024 as a respite care resident, due to a rapid decline in her dementia. My sister and I were exhausted and extremely worried about her health and well being. The staff at the Grange were a life line to both of us and our Mum, all staff then and now and continue to be patient and family focused, keeping my Mum at the heart of their care. We are always consulted if the doctors suggest any change to our Mums medication and my sister and feel listened too and our opinions are always valued. My sister and I visit at any time during the day and are welcomed in by all staff. Every time we visit, staff know exactly what my mum has been up to throughout day and they care for her happiness. If you want quality care, continuity of staffing who are invested in the residents then this residential home would be a perfect choice.

This is the fourth year my Mother has been cared for in The Grange. I have nothing but high praise for the staff team and management. Over the past 12 months Mum's been rapidly deteriorating with Alzheimer's desease and often presents with many challengingly behaviours which require specialist care and support. Staff at the Grange have been exemplary in all they do to ensure she's well looked after, her medical needs being professionally handled and her emotional behaviours sensitively handled. During some difficult times when Mum's struggled with the ravages of Alzheimer's, the kindness of carers, especially those who are in the management team, has astounded me and I've been moved to tears by their determination to do the very best for her. During my weekly visits over the years the family atmosphere and caring ethos has been remarkably balanced with fun, warmth and friendship. I've only ever heard kind words and supportive encouragement for all residents. I can't thank you enough.

My husband has been a resident at The Grange for the past 8 months, and knowing that he is cared for, and cared about, in a place where he is happy, contented and safe gives me a great deal of comfort.

The Grange constantly provides its absolute best for all their residents and I give them all a heartfelt ‘thank you’ for their care and affection and their constant willingness to ‘go the extra mile’. It is so reassuring knowing the lady we love so much is in such safe and caring hands. Please know that your ongoing dedication, care and kindness are seen and appreciated by my friend and me.

Thank you so much to all of you.

My dad has dementia and has been a resident at The Grange for a year now. It is a lovely, caring home away from home for him. His needs are always met and the staff are very patient, personable and always professional. It is clear they all know the residents well and every time I visit I am reassured to know that he is being loved in the way you would wish any family member to be looked after. The staff go above and beyond to make all the residents happy as well as accommodate any wishes of their family. I would not hesitate in recommending The Grange to anyone.

My husband, who has dementia, has been a resident at The Grange for almost a year. He settled quickly into the home, as a result of the excellent care all the staff have shown. In the past year, he has become much happier and relaxed than he was prior to coming to the Grange. The Grange offers an excellent range of activities for the residents, the food is great, and nothing is too much trouble. We recently celebrated our golden wedding, and The Grange staff put on a really lovely party for us both and our family. The decision to find residential care for my husband was very distressing, but I am confident that this was the right decision and that The Grange is providing him with all the love and care which I was no longer able to provide. I am very grateful for the excellent care they offer.

In May 2023, a female resident claimed my father slapped her which he denied. Later she physically attacked him and he verbally threatened her in return. The Grange served my father with notice and we have re-homed him.

Thank you all for going above and beyond the call of duty and for creating a homely and safe environment - with lots of great activities too - including visits from therapy animals and local children.

Nothing caring about this ‘care’ home. Seen things in this home that follow you for life and make you think what really goes on behind closed doors. Staff are not caring. Concerns do not get dealt with. Toilets are filthy. Residents are not looked after well at all. I would not recommend sending anyone here.

Lovely, homely atmosphere. Carers very caring and upbeat. Meals always smell appetising and the residents and their visitors are offered refreshments regularly. The individual bedrooms are very clean and well equipped.

My friend's room is spacious and comfortable, and it is a joy to sit and chat here, in the Lounge or in the Dining Room where excellent and nutritious meals are brought to the Residents at their tables. I have been privileged to share lunch on several occasions. Writing as one who enjoys a good meal I've never been disappointed. I wish to thank and warmly congratulate the entire team at The Grange. You are inspirational!
