About Grove
Newbury Grove is a nursing home in Newbury, West Berkshire. We support older people and younger adults whose needs include nursing care, including many living with dementia 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 here as those needs change rather than having to move on. That continuity is worth a great deal, particularly for somebody living with dementia, for whom familiar faces and surroundings are doing genuine work. Having younger adults as well as older residents means we do not run a single programme and call it activities, because what suits one rarely suits the other. A person in their forties who needs nursing care has not reached the end of anything, and the worst thing a setting like ours can do is quietly treat them as a patient whose life is now their care. The clinical side is only part of a day and usually the smaller part. The rest is meals people want, help without a long wait, privacy, company, and being treated as somebody with a history. Our overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. We are open about what we do less well, and we will tell you if we think another setting suits somebody better.
