About St Gregory's House
St Gregory's House in Milnthorpe provides both nursing and residential care for older people, including those living with dementia. Offering the two together matters a great deal in practice. It means that when somebody's health changes and nursing care becomes necessary, they do not have to leave the home they have settled in and begin again somewhere unfamiliar. Registered nurses are on duty at all hours for those who need them. Day to day our team helps with washing and dressing, with moving about safely, with medication and with eating and drinking well, and the nursing side covers wound care, continence care and the monitoring of long term conditions. We work with local GPs and community teams so that changes in health are picked up early. We want this to feel like a home rather than a place of treatment. Rooms are personalised with belongings that matter, meals are cooked here with a genuine choice, visitors are welcome and there is company for anybody who wants it. For people living with dementia we keep routines predictable and surroundings familiar. Respite and short stays can be arranged. If you would like to look round, please telephone us and we will arrange a time that suits you.
