About Us

The Green Care Home with Nursing in Dronfield cares for older people who need nursing support, and we offer respite stays alongside permanent places.

Having registered nurses on site around the clock means clinical needs are met in the home rather than through repeated trips to hospital. Wound care, catheters, diabetes, pain relief and the gradual changes that come with frailty are managed by people who already know the person, in surroundings they know. Families can ring and speak to somebody who can actually tell them how their relative has been that day.

Most of good nursing care is small things done reliably and on time. Pressure care that does not slip. Mouth care that is not skipped. Someone sitting with a person who is frightened at three in the morning. We would rather be judged on those than on anything we could put in a brochure.

The other half of the job is a life worth getting up for. Residents choose their routines, their rooms are their own, and nobody is expected to join in with anything out of politeness. We encourage people to bring their own furniture and pictures so that a room becomes theirs quickly.

Respite stays suit people needing nursing input briefly and family carers who need a genuine break.

Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. Please come and visit us in Dronfield.
