About Ashton Grange Nursing & Residential Home
Ashton Grange is a nursing and residential home in Horsham. We care for older people who need nursing support and for those who need residential care, which means that if someone's health changes over time they do not have to pack up and start again somewhere new. A large part of our work is with people living with dementia, and we give it the time it needs. Steady routines, familiar staff, meals at expected times and patience in conversation do more good than anything hurried. We also support adults with a learning disability, autistic adults and younger adults with nursing needs, and we plan around the person rather than around a label. Respite stays are part of what we offer too. Sometimes a family carer simply needs a fortnight off, and sometimes someone needs nursing support for a few weeks after a hospital admission before going home again. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission was good. We are glad of it and we keep our own checks running between inspections, since that is where the real standard is either held or lost. If you are thinking about a home for someone in your family, please come and look round. Come at a normal time on a normal day, talk to the people who live here, and ask us anything at all.
