About Kingsthorpe Grange
Kingsthorpe Grange delivers specialist nursing care in Northampton for older people living with dementia, delirium and complex mental health needs. Its care is organised across four self-contained households, including one male-only high-dependency household, supporting both longer stays and changing care needs.
The home offers standard, enhanced and complex nursing under one roof, with long-term nursing, respite and discharge-to-assess pathways. Every referral is assessed by the clinical team before admission, and timescales are agreed for the individual case. The service also supports hospital step-down, recovery and neurological or long-standing mental and physical health needs.
