About Belmont Grange Nursing and Residential Home
Belmont Grange Nursing and Residential Home is in Durham. We provide both nursing and residential care for older people, including those living with dementia, people with a physical disability, people with visual or hearing impairment and some younger adults. Respite stays are available too. Offering both nursing and residential care under one roof matters more than it might sound. It means that when someone's health changes and they begin to need nursing input, they do not have to move house, leave the staff they know and start again somewhere unfamiliar. For a lot of families that continuity is the thing they are most anxious about. Registered nurses are on site at all hours, so clinical needs are met here. Alongside that sits the ordinary business of a good day, which matters just as much. Residents choose their routines, personalise their rooms and decide how sociable they want to be. With dementia we rely on familiarity and patience rather than anything elaborate, and we ask families to tell us about the person's earlier life. Where sight or hearing is reduced, we adapt how we communicate and keep the surroundings predictable. Respite stays suit people needing support after hospital and family carers who need a genuine break. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. Please come and visit Belmont Grange, meet the team and residents, and ask us anything you want to know.
