About The Grove Care Centre - Thurnscoe
The Grove Care Centre in Thurnscoe is a residential care home serving this part of Barnsley and Rotherham. We look after older people who can no longer manage at home alone, including a good many living with dementia, and we offer respite stays as well as permanent places. We are not a nursing home and we are clear with families about where that line falls. What we do is the daily work of helping somebody wash and dress, take their medicines, eat properly, move about safely and stay connected to other people. Done well that is a skilled job and it depends almost entirely on whether staff know the person, so keeping our team is where most of our effort goes. Thurnscoe is a former pit village with a strong sense of itself, staff are mostly local and tend to stay, and the people who live here are part of the place rather than tucked away from it. For residents with dementia we have found steadiness beats stimulation. The same faces, meals at the same times, a bedroom that looks like the person's own room, and nothing moved without a reason. Our overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. Call in and see us, with or without warning.
