About Heywoods Grange
At Heywoods Grange, we provide residential care for adults in the heart of Diss, Norfolk. We specialise in supporting people with learning disabilities and autism, and we also offer respite care for those who need a short break or whose families need some time to rest and recharge. We understand that choosing a care home is one of the most significant decisions a person or their family will ever make. That is why we work hard to make sure that everyone who comes through our doors feels genuinely at home. We take the time to get to know each person as an individual, understanding their routines, their preferences, and the things that matter most to them. Care here is shaped around the person, not the other way around. Our team works closely with residents and their families to make sure support is consistent, respectful and responsive. We believe that good care means listening carefully, communicating openly, and always treating people with dignity. We are proud that our most recent inspection by the Care Quality Commission resulted in an overall rating of Good, which reflects the commitment our whole team brings to their work every day. For people with learning disabilities or autism, we know how important it is to have a calm, structured and familiar environment. We put real thought into how we support each person to live as independently as possible while ensuring they feel safe and understood. Our respite care offers the same standard of support as our longer term residential care, so families can feel confident that their loved one is in good hands even for a shorter stay. If you would like to find out more about life at Heywoods Grange or come and see the home for yourself, we would love to hear from you.
