About Richard House Care Home
Richard House provides residential and nursing care in Grantham. We care for older people who need help with daily living, for those who need qualified nursing, for residents living with dementia, for people living with mental health conditions, for people with a physical disability and for people whose sight or hearing is impaired. We also care for some younger adults. Offering both residential and nursing care means that when somebody's health changes we can adjust what we provide rather than asking them to move again. We want to be open about where we stand. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is requires improvement. We are working through the points raised, with particular attention to record keeping, staff supervision and the consistency of care planning, and we would sooner set that out ourselves and invite your questions than have you come across it elsewhere. Relatives are part of that work because they can say whether things have genuinely changed. Respite stays are available alongside permanent places. Families across Lincolnshire are welcome to visit and ask us anything.
