About Grenville Court Care Home

Grenville Court Care Home is in Norwich, and we provide residential care for older people who need support with daily living. Respite stays are available as well. Most of what makes a care home good is ordinary detail rather than anything grand. Knowing which chair is somebody's. Getting the tea right. Not hurrying a person through a wash because the morning is busy. We help with personal care, dressing, medication and mobility, doing it quietly and leaving as much privacy and choice with the resident as we can. Where somebody can still manage a task themselves, that is theirs to keep. Dementia care is a significant part of our work. We keep the daily rhythm and the surroundings steady, give people time to find their words instead of finishing their sentences, and take trouble to learn about earlier life, because knowing what somebody did and what they loved tells us a great deal once language becomes unreliable. Families usually hold that story and we ask for it early. We ought to be open with you. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is requires improvement. We have worked through the findings with our team and those areas are where our effort is concentrated at present. We would rather you heard it from us and then came and judged the place for yourself. Visitors are welcome on any ordinary day. Ring us and we will arrange a time that suits you.
