At Fairmile Grange, care is more than just what we do—it’s who we are. Dignity, respect, and kindness are at the heart of everything we offer, ensuring every resident feels valued and at home. Our team is made up of compassionate professionals, chosen for their dedication to delivering the highest standard of person-centred care, supporting not just physical health but overall wellbeing.
Our home is more than just a place to live; it’s a close-knit community where residents and their loved ones feel like family. We celebrate each person’s individuality, providing the care and encouragement they need to live fulfilling and enriching lives, every single day.
Fairmile Grange Care Home in Christchurch is very much a part of the local community and we welcome regular visits from local schools and other community groups. Each floor of our care home is its own friendly community offering you or your loved one the opportunity to be part of a close-knit group of like-minded people.
Our home has a strong and supportive relationship with local health services, including Christchurch Hospital, ensuring the very best care for our residents. Our warm and compassionate team provides around-the-clock support, always dedicated to meeting individual needs with kindness and respect.
With nurses and carers on duty 24 hours a day, we create a safe and relaxed environment where residents feel truly cared for. Whether it’s assisting with medication, changing a dressing, helping with personal care, preparing a delicious meal, or simply offering a listening ear, our thoughtful and highly trained staff are always here to help.
The spacious, comfortable lounges and dining rooms on each floor are at the heart of our care home. This is where you can often find our residents enjoying visiting entertainers and spending time with their new friends. Residents can treat themselves to some pampering in our purpose-built Hair Salon or catch up with friends and family in one of our many communal areas.
We take the time to truly understand each resident—their interests, hobbies, and the little things that bring them joy. Our warm and friendly Wellbeing Team offers a variety of activities, allowing residents to take part as much or as little as they like, always at their own pace.
Our dedicated team thoughtfully designs personalised activity programs, carefully tailored to individual preferences and needs. Whether it’s group activities or quiet moments of engagement, we create an inclusive environment where every resident feels valued and connected.
At Fairmile Grange, we know that mealtimes are more than just nourishment—they are moments to enjoy, connect, and feel at home. Every day, our residents are served freshly prepared, nutritious meals that are both delicious and comforting. Our varied menus offer something for everyone, and we warmly welcome family and friends to share special moments together in our private dining rooms.
Our in-house chefs take great care in preparing balanced, seasonal meals using locally sourced ingredients. By getting to know each resident personally and referring to their tailored care plan, we create meals that reflect their favourite tastes and preferences.
We also ensure that light meals and snacks are always available throughout the day, allowing residents to enjoy food whenever they feel like it—not just at set mealtimes. We feel, dining is about choice, enjoyment, and feeling truly cared for.
At Fairmile Grange, we have thoughtfully designed every detail to create a warm and homely environment. Our spacious bedrooms are bright and airy, providing a comfortable retreat where residents can truly relax.
Every ensuite wet-room is equipped, movement-triggered lighting for added convenience and safety. To make each space feel even more personal, we encourage residents to bring along their favourite furniture, photos, and cherished keepsakes—helping them feel truly at home from the moment they arrive.
Outside each bedroom, memory boxes can be filled with meaningful trinkets and little reminders of loved ones, creating a familiar and comforting touch. At Fairmile Grange, every space is designed to provide warmth, security, and a true sense of belonging.
