We understand that maintaining mobility and independence is of the utmost importance for our Residents’ well-being. At Gracefields, our Residents have the option to purchase a Premium Physiotherapy Package with one of our Cedar Care Physiotherapists. All of our physiotherapists have previously worked as care assistants, giving them the ability to navigate the challenges associated with helping those in their later years to get back to their best. They have a genuine passion for caring for the elderly and vulnerable, and are keen to help Residents to maintain their independence or regain motor skills where they can. We know that starting a new service can be daunting, especially when it is focused on physical activity. If you are unsure if the Premium Physiotherapy Package is for you, you can request a free Taster Week by speaking with the Home Manager.

I would like to thank every member of staff for their kindness and excellent nursing care during my stay. You have all been wonderful in looking after me. I will never forget you. I would recommend Gracefields to anyone. Thank you all again. I hope to return when I'm totally recovered.
Showed care and compassion looking after my Dad, the nursing and care staff provided the best possible care. Hospital level cleanliness and facilities. Well maintained property that gives a very professional feeling.
Fantastic nursing home and staff. The home is always clean and tidy, especially my dad's room. The room is brightly decorated and feels like a home, safe and welcoming. The staff are fantastic and very attentive to my dad as he has complex nursing needs. They are compassionate and humane in their approach to their work and the residents. I am very comforted to know my dad is in such a wonderful home and the level of care is exceptional.
Very caring staff who do an amazing job. Thank you to you all, and well done to the person on the activities too. Always very clean, nice big rooms with en suite. Lovely garden space a very nice place to sit and talk to other residents and visitors.
The family would like to thank all the staff at Gracefields Nursing Home - Mum was receiving end-of-life care and was only there for a short while but she loved it - she wished that she had gone there sooner as the quality of the food and care was second to none. From the time that she arrived to flowers, a card and chocolate as a welcoming gift right through to the end when the staff welcomed the family to stay with her until the end. We could not fault it.
