The Grand is located in West Bridgford and is one of two care homes we have in Nottingham. The Grand care centre is a stone’s throw away from Sharp Hill Wood and Wilwell Farm Reserve. This stylish and modern care home has been built with comfort and safety in mind, meeting all current CQC requirements. The Grand has been equipped with 82 purpose-built bedrooms fitted with en-suite wet rooms, and you’ll also find beautiful lounge and dining areas on each of the four floors of our care centre.
The interiors at The Grand care home have been designed and planned by an interior designer who’s created a space that helps all of our residents feel like they are at home. The Grand care centre has plenty of premium features, including its own library, hairdresser, and a nail bar. Each space has been designed with comfort and practicality in mind, with practical signage to allow our residents to get around with ease. As part of our wellbeing values, we offer many activities to encourage our residents at The Grand care centre to become involved in fitness, hobbies, and learning.
The Grand puts every care home resident at the centre of our care, whether that’s residential, nursing, dementia or respite care services. We work to ensure everyone can remain independent and that they are a part of the West Bridgford community as much as possible. We enjoy days out to see local greenery, Old Market Square in the city centre, and the museums Nottingham has to offer. The Grand care centre is fresh, elegant, and full of bustling local culture. It’s a home for life and we can’t wait to welcome you or your loved ones.

Great Things About The Grand Care Home
Our Care Philosophy
“To build and operate homes that celebrate the wonder of people and provides a quality of care that is delightful.” It is our aim at The Grand to enable all of our residents to maintain the highest level of independence and achieve their full potential whatever that may be – physical, intellectual, emotional or social. We believe this philosophy can be achieved by providing professional, person-centred care, nurturing each resident individually exploring and understanding their needs with the appreciation that care requirements may change and that the team will be responsive to those changing needs. We are there every step of the way.
Magic Table
In line with our care philosophy at The Grand, we have a “Magic” table or “Tovertafel” in the dementia community. There is significant literature on the positive effects on dementia of play. From our observations, the impact of the “Magic Table” is extremely positive for residents living with dementia. Residents and their relatives alike can play freely on the “Magic Table”. In addition, this is a particularly useful opportunity for involving children to experience positive play with their older relatives. New Care is one of a small group of providers who are leading the way in the UK, by purchasing the “Magic” table as part of our overarching strategy to provide opportunities for our residents living with dementia and their relatives to have fun together.
Oomph Wellbeing
In order to develop the wellbeing aspect of the service at The Grand, we have invested in ‘OOMPH!’ well-being. Oomph! provides training to our entire staff team to deliver a 360 degree approach to wellbeing, demonstrating a positive impact at all times. The training and support packages enable our staff to deliver everyday mental stimulation, regular, fun physical activity and new experiences & connections for our residents. We have enabled all team members at The Grand to provide a set of complementary services to enhance the mental, physical and emotional wellbeing of our residents.
Why You Should Choose Us
Meet the Team
Tracy Johnston, Home Manager
I am a qualified nurse and trained at the University of Central Lancashire, qualifying in 1999. Totalling 30 years of care/nursing experience my passion lies with care homes and I have extensive management experience as a home manager including troubleshooting, care home turnaround and Regional management. These areas have given me a wealth of knowledge and decided to come back into the daily running of the care home after being out and about travelling many miles. I am proud to be part of the team here at The Grand and to work for New Care working towards their vision. My team and I are dedicated to making each day different and special for residents. The care we deliver is person-centred, ensuring that individual needs and requirements are met. It is important to us that residents retain as much independence as possible with support to continue pursuing the interests and hobbies they have always enjoyed. Personal hobbies and interests include family, Horse riding and my three West Highland Terriers Dave, Dottie & Alfie, A family unit themselves – you may see them in the home occasionally.
Rebecca Thorpe, Deputy Manager
I have worked at New Care for 4 years and enjoyed my time at Ruddington Manor but transferred to The Grand for a new challenge a year ago. I enjoy my job as Care Manager and now ecstatic to be successful in my new role as the Deputy Manager. I am able to have autonomy in my role which help me thrive and feel satisfied in my role. It's ‘Grand at the Grand’ as we say and New Care look after their staff members really well with excellent opportunities for promotions, i can vouch for that. Every day is a different day and I love that we can make our residents' lives special. I love seeing them smile every day.
Anca Periat, Home Administrator
I started working with New Care 6 years ago when I moved in UK with my husband and our two lovely daughters. I have had two internal promotions and I am so grateful for all the support I had during all these years from management team and all my colleagues. It is such a privilege to make a difference to our residents lives. I love my job and I really enjoy being part of New Care's team.
Ellen Robinson, Home Trainer
Having worked for New Care for 7 years I feel that from the very beginning I knew I had made the right decision to become an employee at New Care. As New Care have inhouse trainers in all of their homes this is a great advantage to the care industry as there is always opportunities for all staff members to learn new things and career develop within the home gaining support and guidance from the manager and home trainer. I aim to provide a top quality training to all staff, by doing this it allows staff to provide top quality care to the residents.
Bridget Peck, Wellbeing Coordinator
I have worked for New Care for over 4 years. When I first walked into The Grand I was amazed that a care home could look like a hotel; I was lost for words. I began as a Senior Carer and then transferred to the Wellbeing Team. I was then given the opportunity to lead the Wellbeing team. New Care is a very family orientated and person centred company; nothing is too much trouble to meet the resident’s needs and wishes. I look forward to coming to work each day, and I can’t believe I get paid to do a job that I love!
