About Tapton Grove
Tapton Grove is a nursing home in Chesterfield, caring for people from across Derbyshire. Because we are registered for nursing care, registered nurses are part of our team around the clock, which means we can support people whose health needs are substantial or changing without asking anyone to move again. We care for people living with dementia and for adults managing mental ill health, and we offer respite stays alongside permanent places. Supporting people whose needs sit across both dementia and mental health takes patience and consistency, and it is work we take seriously. Much of it comes down to knowing a person well enough to understand what is behind a change in mood or behaviour rather than simply recording that it happened. Our nursing work covers medication, wound care, continence support, help with eating and drinking, and close attention to comfort and skin health. We should be direct about our last inspection. The Care Quality Commission rated us as requires improvement. We are working through the findings rather than explaining them away, with tighter oversight of care records and medication, more structured supervision for staff and clearer checks that what we plan is what actually happens on each shift. We would rather tell you that openly than have families discover it later. Please visit, meet the nursing team, ask us difficult questions and see the home as it really is.
