The Grange Care Home

The Granges is brilliant. My mum is looking really well. I hadn't been able to see her for a year, until recently - when I was able to call back in and see her. It was clear she had been taken care of really well. The staff are so lovely, caring and thoughtful - like a kindly extended family. All the staff are a credit to the company. Thank you so much!

My mother has been in the home for quite a few years now and for me personally, I cannot find fault with anything. The staff, past and present, have been amazing especially throughout the last difficult 12 months plus with the worldwide pandemic of Covid-19. Brighterkind should be proud to have them.

The Grange is a fantastic care home with kind, dedicated, caring staff. I am kept informed of the well being and the health of my mother regularly. I have found the staff pleasant at all times, and this has made me feel secure in the knowledge Mum is happy and settled. Prior to Covid, I witnessed entertainment and activities with excellent meals served in a comfortable dining room. I believe The Grange is one of the best care homes in the area.

The whole place is a joke, the level of care was at times non-existent. The least well run establishment I have ever come across. The staff just ignored my mum's buzzer most of the time. She had to get out of bed and drag herself to the door of her room to get someone's attention to help her one time. Awful place, I feel bad I left her in there for four months. She was stressed the whole time, staff shouting at each other, shouting at residents as well. They lost her clothes and she never got them back even upon leaving. Thank god I've moved her to where she is now, what a massive difference.

My dad in The Grange till his death 10/01/20. My mum was told in hospital she needed a nursing home and chose The Grange because it was midway between her house and ours. How lucky we were with her choice. Warm and clean. Always wearing nicely laundered clothing. Served 3 hot meals a day. My dad wouldn't and my mum couldn't leave their rooms so activities not rated. Despite all problems which arose healthwise my parents were treated not just professionally but with genuine care.

My mother was a resident at the Grange for the two years before her death. She received care of a very high standard. However, more than that, the staff showed a deep commitment to her well-being and human dignity. As far as possible, they helped her feel at home. As a visitor to my mother, I always received a friendly 'hello' and got to know the staff by name. All members of staff showed the same regard for her whether their role was domestic or nursing. When asking for help, nothing was too much trouble. The whole team cherished my mum, especially as she became frail at the end of her life. I cannot thank them enough.

Thank you.

In their time there they were always treated well and with very good care.

Mum suffered a major stroke which left her unable to speak and move the right side of her body in early 2018.

After 3 months of acute and rehabilitative care, she was moved to The Grange. From the outset, the whole family was made to feel very welcome and we were impressed by the high standard of not just the facilities, but also the quality and dependability of the care provided. We were very happy indeed with the efforts all the staff made to improve Mum's quality of life, despite the challenges of looking after someone who could not move or communicate easily.

Mum was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in late 2018. After a period of hospitalisation, she received end of life care at The Grange. It was during the last days of her life that we came to appreciate fully the exceptional level of care and support. Many of the staff came to Mum's funeral, something which had a great impact on all of her friends and family.

We cannot thank The Grange enough for their incredible support.

The Grange has helped Dad to ease into a 'different' life. It has not been an easy time but it has been consistently done with compassion.

My mother in law came in following a dense stroke which affected all her daily lung activities. The staff have been amazing and given her the best-individualised care going. They have been professional and when at the end she died, they showed care and dignity. I would recommend this home to anyone requiring nursing care.

My mother was in The Grange for three weeks for end of life care. The building itself is lovely and my mother had a large cosy room which she loved. The home itself has a very cosy, friendly atmosphere and I found all the staff caring, understanding and helpful. I visited every day with my dad and we were welcomed by all. The drinks machine at the entrance added a very welcoming touch. I would definitely recommend The Grange to other people. I was shown great compassion when I lost my mother.

Generally satisfactory. Staff friendly.

The Grange is an excellent nursing home, you are made to feel very welcome by all the staff, the nursing care is 'top notch'. I have never heard a wrong word about The Grange, food is excellent, various activities for residents and fundraising events. Always welcomed with a smile by very caring staff, no doom and gloom, everybody happy. '10 out of 10'

Both my parents are resident at The Grange, they have very different needs but are both treated with care, compassion and good humour. The staff are friendly and supportive and provide a friendly, welcoming atmosphere. The activities are excellent and provide a stimulating environment for both my parents.

My Mother was a resident of the Grange for over 9 years. Initially, she was a very active person and the staff always allowed her to be herself. For the last four years, she has been confined, mainly, to her bedroom due to her very poor state of health. The care and attention was excellent and without fault. It was also given on a very personal basis with a close bond between my Mother and the carers. It was the staff at The Grange which made so much difference to my Mothers last few years.

A great care home good staff. Highly recommend.

My husband came to The Grange Care Home on many occasions for respite when it became necessary for him to go into a nursing home and I didn't hesitate. The Grange Care Home was the one for us, the care, kindness and support given is outstanding. The Grange staff are polite courteous and very kind. They not only look after my husband but also the family. They are simply the best.

A lovely home. Great staff. A comfortable friendly happy environment. All staff are friendly. One word: home form home. My uncle is being looked after brilliantly with lots of love, respect and dignity. Thank you.
