About Welwyn Grange
Welwyn Grange is a nursing home in Welwyn Garden City, Hertfordshire. Being registered for nursing care means we can support people whose health needs go beyond what a residential home can safely meet, with qualified nurses working alongside our care team throughout. We care for older adults with ongoing conditions, managing medication, nutrition, skin care, pain and comfort while helping with washing, dressing and moving about in a way that leaves people as independent as they can be. Dementia care is a significant part of our work and rests on familiar staff, a settled routine and taking the time to learn what reassures each individual. We support residents with physical disabilities and those with a visual or hearing impairment, adapting how we communicate and how we assist so that dignity is never traded for convenience, and we care for younger adults whose conditions require nursing support, planning their days around their own interests. Respite stays are available for families needing a planned break or extra support after a hospital discharge. We do not currently hold an overall rating from the Care Quality Commission. Families are welcome to visit at any reasonable hour, meet the team and ask us whatever they need to know before deciding anything.
