About Us
The Grove Residential Care Home stands in Horncastle, and we look after older people from across this part of Lincolnshire. A number of our residents are living with dementia, several live with sight or hearing loss, and we take respite guests as well.
We are a residential home rather than a nursing one, and we think being clear about that helps families plan. What we offer is skilled support with the business of daily living: getting up and dressed, medicines, good food, company when it is wanted and peace when it is not. Where someone's health needs grow beyond that, we say so early and help the family think about what comes next.
Sensory loss deserves more thought than it usually gets in a busy home. Sitting where a person can see your face, speaking clearly without shouting, making sure hearing aids actually work and that glasses are clean and to hand. Small things, and they decide whether somebody stays part of the conversation or drifts quietly out of it.
Horncastle is a market town and we are part of it. Residents get out, and visitors come in without needing an appointment.
Respite stays suit families needing a break and people who want to try us before deciding anything permanent.
Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. Come and see us on a normal afternoon and make your own judgement.
