About Us

We are Kirby Grange, a residential care home in Leicestershire. We support older people and younger adults, including people living with dementia, people managing a mental health condition, and people with a physical disability or a visual or hearing impairment.

With that range of people under one roof, a single routine would suit nobody, so we do not run one. People get up when they are ready, eat what appeals to them and spend their days as they choose. What stays the same is that staff are always about and that they know the people here well enough to notice when somebody is quieter, more tired or less themselves than usual.

For residents living with dementia, we work with their history rather than against their confusion. Knowing the work somebody did, the family they raised and the music that still reaches them is worth more than any activity timetable, and it makes for calmer days.

We keep families properly in the picture and would always rather make an early call about a small concern than a difficult one later. Visitors are welcome whenever they want to come, and we work alongside GPs, district nurses and community teams.

We take respite stays as well as permanent residents. Our most recent CQC overall rating is good. Please get in touch to arrange a look round.
