About Woodley Grange
Woodley Grange is a residential care home in Romsey, Hampshire. We provide care for older people, including people living with dementia, people with physical disabilities and people with visual or hearing impairment, and we offer respite stays alongside permanent places. We are a residential home rather than a clinical setting, and the day here belongs to the people living in it. Some like an early start and a bit of company; others prefer a slow morning and a quiet afternoon. Our part is to make either possible, and to help with washing, dressing, medication, meals and getting about in a way that supports independence rather than replacing it. Dementia care is central to our work. We take time to learn each person's history, habits and the things that reassure them, because that knowledge is what lets staff respond to the feeling behind a difficult moment rather than simply react to the behaviour. Where a resident has a physical disability we make sure equipment is properly set up and that staff use it confidently, and where there is a sight or hearing impairment we adapt how we communicate and keep things where the person expects to find them. Respite stays get the same planning as any other admission. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good, which we treat as a foundation rather than a finishing line. You are very welcome to visit Woodley Grange and see the home on an ordinary day.
