1o why is our care home such a great place?:
Ghyll Grove Residential and Nursing Home is a versatile care home with four separate houses – one providing nursing care, one for residential care, one for residential dementia care and one that accommodates residents requiring nursing dementia care.
Although the home is situated in a quiet residential area of Basildon, the resort town of Southend-on-Sea is only a short distance away, and those wanting to head into London will find excellent and regular rail links from near the home itself.
Life at Ghyll Grove
Our in-house activity co-ordinator does their best to plan something interesting every day so that every resident, regardless of their ability, has something fun to do.
Our activities
We take time to talk to each of our residents to find out what sort of activities and events they'd like to take part in, as we believe that these are an important part of social interaction at the home. Residents are, of course, free to pursue any existing hobbies or interests they might have too.
We have regular visits to the home from local performers, theatre groups and schools which are always a big hit with our residents. Some of the activities the residents particularly enjoy are our annual garden party and BBQ, religious services and the annual Easter egg hunt with the local community. We also plan regular excursions outside of the home.
