About Woodland Grove
Woodland Grove is a nursing home in Loughton, Essex, where qualified nurses are on hand at every hour of the day and night. We care for older people whose health needs have gone beyond what residential care or family support can safely manage, and we also support younger adults living with complex conditions. Nursing care here means proper clinical attention to wounds, medication, continence, nutrition and mobility, delivered without turning someone's home into a ward. Our residents include people living with dementia, people with significant physical disabilities, and those with a visual or hearing impairment, and we adapt how we communicate and how we arrange a room so that everyday life stays as easy as we can make it. We also offer respite stays, which often help a family who has been managing at home and needs a period of proper rest. What we want is for the medical side of things to sit quietly in the background. Residents choose when to get up, where to spend the afternoon and who they want beside them, and we keep families informed and involved rather than waiting for them to ask. When someone's condition changes we say so early and we explain the options plainly. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. If you are looking at nursing care for a relative, we would rather you came and saw the place for yourself, met the nurses and asked us the awkward questions.
