Our philosophy is simple- our residents and their families are at the heart of our care homes

Our family values have been at the heart of Country Court Care since 1983, they underpin our vision, shape our culture and guide our conduct and relationships with our colleagues, residents, families and our suppliers.

We have no rivals when it comes to upholding family values and principles;

  • Focus on treating all residents as individuals, with compassion and dignity
  • Encouraging an active social life within the home and the local community
  • Promoting a "dining experience" with award winning food and drink, where residents are in charge
  • Bespoke, tasteful furnishings and fittings, meticulously designed with residents in mind
  • Small gestures make a big difference - whether it's an anniversary or a birthday, we will make the day special.

    One of Country Court Care's highly respected care homes in the Grimsby area, The Grove Care Home is nestled in the leafy village of Waltham, deep in rural Lincolnshire. Designed especially for people looking for both comfort and independence in their retirement, the home boasts fantastic facilities to promote this ethos.

Autumna has invited care providers to evidence the infection control measures they are carrying out, above and beyond those laid out by the government, in order to keep residents, staff and visitors safe.

What we're doing to keep residents & visitors safe

Infection Control Initiatives in place
safe-tick Infection Control Training Our staff are trained to use measures which prevent and control infections.
Connectivity for resident testing, monitoring & communications

Infection control and the safety of both residents and staff often requires quarantine measures and the isolation of care home residents. To test, monitor and allow residents to communicate with relatives, the prevalence of room-level connectivity within the home is becoming increasingly relevant.
