About Walton Grove
Walton Grove is a nursing home in Oldham. We support older people and younger adults whose needs include nursing care, including many living with dementia, people managing mental health conditions and people with physical disabilities. We also offer respite stays. Having registered nurses as part of the team means people whose health needs are complex can stay with us as those needs change rather than having to move on again. That continuity is worth a great deal, particularly for somebody living with dementia, for whom familiar faces and surroundings are doing genuine work. The clinical side is only part of a day here and usually the smaller part. The rest is the ordinary business of living somewhere: meals people want to eat, help that arrives without a long wait, privacy when it is wanted, company when it is not, and being spoken to as somebody with a working life and a family rather than as a set of conditions. We have not yet been given an overall rating by the Care Quality Commission, and we would rather state that openly than write around it. Anybody considering us should visit without an appointment, speak to residents and relatives, and ask us whatever they want to ask.
