About Foxburrow Grange

Foxburrow Grange is a nursing home in Colchester caring for adults who need qualified nursing support alongside help with everyday living. We support older people and younger adults, people living with dementia, people managing mental health conditions, people with physical disabilities and people with sight or hearing loss, and we take respite stays. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is requires improvement. We would rather put that in front of a family than have them find it elsewhere. We know which areas were identified, work is under way on them, and we will go through the detail honestly with anybody who asks. Registered nurses are on duty at all hours, which means clinical needs can be met here rather than through repeated journeys elsewhere. Around that sits the ordinary business of a day. Unhurried mornings. Meals worth sitting down to. Company when it is wanted and quiet when it is not. Somebody noticing quickly when a person is not themselves. For people living with dementia we keep faces and routines steady and follow the person's own pace. Please come and visit on a normal day and judge the home for yourself.
