Welcome to Grace Manor Care Centre in Gillingham, Kent. Situated on stunning grounds, the classic Manor property offers 24-hour care for those over the age of 55.

The well-kept care centre comprises 57 bedrooms, 12 of which make up the Dementia unit. A portion of the bedrooms is equipped with an en-suite W.C. and a hand basin. They encourage residents to furnish their new surroundings with familiar pieces of furniture and personal possessions to make them feel truly at home. While the bedrooms provide a tranquil area to rest and relax, the home's cosy sitting rooms and dining room offers residents the opportunity to catch up with friends over a pot of tea, enjoy one of the guest entertainers or simply recline in front of their favourite films.

Many of the activities take place within the home environment and include art, handicrafts, visiting entertainers, quiz nights as well as garden parties and summer barbecues.

This is mum's 3rd home in 4 years and I wish we knew about this home back at the beginning, it would have saved so many stressful months especially when she was in a care home near me for 5 months and got asked to leave. Grace Manor has lessened all my stress and I know mum is well cared for and they understand Alzheimer's and work with whatever mood mum is in. Every member of staff is so kind and caring, always with a smile on their face and always willing to help. Nothing is ever too much for them. Thank you to everyone for all the kindness you have shown to mum and to all the family. Ten stars.

The staff are always welcoming, professional and approachable. They take the time to get to know each resident as an individual and treat everyone with kindness, patience and empathy. It is clear that the residents' wellbeing, comfort and happiness are at the heart of everything they do.
The home is clean, well-maintained and has a warm, friendly atmosphere that makes visitors feel welcome from the moment they arrive. Communication with families is excellent, and I truly appreciate being kept informed and feeling included in my loved one's care.
It is evident that the team works incredibly hard to create a safe, caring and engaging environment where residents are treated like family.
Any queries I have are dealt with my the staff and management.
My father is also making process and likes the home after a long period in hospital.

The improvement in my mother's overall wellbeing having moved to Grace Manor from where she was previously was nothing short of amazing. Both my grandmother and uncle have been residents of Grace Manor so I knew it would be better for her. The care is first rate and my mother is very happy there. The staff are excellent, I have no issues and would recommend the Manor to anyone seeking care facilities for a loved one.
Mum enjoys being there shes settled in nicely. She loves it when they doing dancing activities or when the children and babies come in. All the carers have got to know her well and what her needs are.

Lovely quiet surroundings with a garden view room. Staff have been very pleasant and helpful even prior to mums placement and thereafter knowledgeable on planning requirements / needs and advice, taking ownership of decisions and communicating necessary details to various parties for ongoing care. So pleased that we managed to find mum a place here
The care staff here are wonderful and always have been in the almost 2 years since she has been here. I feel extremely lucky to have found this place when I did. Laughter is the best medicine and we get that often and it cheers me up and used to for her.

My Dad was a resident at Grace Manor, and I cannot speak highly enough of the care and support he received from everyone we encountered there. The home itself is in an excellent location with ample parking, superb facilities, and daily activities for all the residents. The care staff seem to take a genuine interest in the residents and their families. I would 100% recommended Grace Manor if your relative needs support from a specialist Dementia home.

Sadly my Mum was only able to enjoy her time at Grace Manor briefly but she loved her room, which overlooked the front garden, for a relatively short time before she passed away. However, in that brief time we found all of the team at Grace Manor to be very welcoming, helpful, caring and efficient and when my brother and sister-in-law visited Mum at Grace Manor they came away feeling very positive and commented that it was the happiest that they had seen her for several years. We have no hesitation in recommending Grace Manor.

My father needed more care than we could safely provide and we selected Grace Manor following a previous visit and feeling that the home could be right for my father. All the team have been very supportive in getting my father settled into the home. All the team show him kindness and interest in him as an individual, which has been very important in helping him settle and feel safe in his new environment. It was a very big and emotional decision for us and this has certainly been made smoother by the support we received. When I say 'all the team' this covers the nurses, carers, dinner staff, laundry and maintenance - who I have seen address my father in a kind respectful way.
I have been happy with my aunt's care at Grace Manor Care Center since she moved in back in January 2022. There are plenty of activities for her to get involved with if she chooses, and the staff are caring and friendly.

Mum is very happy at Grace Manor Care Centre, she enjoys the activities, loves her room which has all her photos and her own furniture. She loves to be outside which the staff are well aware of so on any nice day (summer and winter) they will sit her outside in the lovely garden. The staff are so attentive and take the time to chat and have a laugh with her. She is still able to get out to her other activities but is always warmly welcomed home.

All my life I wanted to care for older adults and make a difference in their life. Becoming a home manager was the ultimate way to do so. However, being a home manager is so much more than looking after older adults and I realised that looking after your staff is paramount to delivering good quality care. Creating an open and honest culture with staff, recognising their achievements and actively engaging, supporting staff and valuing staff is paramount. If you have a happy and content staff team, you have happy residents. I believe a manager should be a great role model who is passionate, hands-on and motivated with a great sense of humour.
Grace Manor Care Centre is our older adult’s home, we are proud of our warm and welcoming environment, and we will always be here for a chat. It is important that both our older residents and their families are included and feel at home. It is always the highlight of my role to see these residents smiling and laughing again.
