About Greycliffe Manor

Greycliffe Manor is a residential care home in Torquay, caring for older people from across Torbay and the surrounding area. We offer permanent residential places and planned respite stays, and we support residents living with dementia and those whose physical disabilities make life at home difficult. We try to run a household rather than an institution. Residents keep their own routines as far as they can, there is time in the day for a proper conversation, and meals are a real part of life here with an alternative always available. People are encouraged to bring their own furniture and pictures, since a room only becomes yours once your own things are in it. Dementia care starts with life history. Knowing a resident's trade, their family, their habits and what has always comforted them tells us more about how to support them than any general guidance. When someone is distressed we look for the reason behind it rather than reaching for a standard answer. Support for physical disability is about access rather than limitation. We plan and equip so that reduced mobility does not shrink someone's world to a single chair, and getting out of the building matters to us. The Care Quality Commission rated us good at our most recent inspection. Please come and visit us on an ordinary day. It will tell you far more than any description could.
