There are many high-quality nursing homes across Leicester, whether you're seeking round-the-clock clinical care or specialist nursing support for a loved one. Many are located near Leicester Royal Infirmary and Glenfield Hospital, which work with local nursing homes to provide seamless continuity of care following a discharge to assess (D2A) decision.Â
Several Leicester nursing homes specialise in complex care needs, including support for Parkinson's, stroke recovery, motor neurone disease and multiple sclerosis (MS), to name a few. Aylesham Court, for example, is a Bupa nursing home that offers 24/7 nursing and palliative care and benefits from on-site physiotherapy, lovely gardens and plenty of activities like gardening, baking, arts and crafts, and visits from children. Harley Grange, run by HC-One, provides nursing dementia care and has a dedicated team that tailors care plans to every individual. This nursing home has a minibus for taking residents on day trips.
Every home listed above is regulated by the Care Quality Commission (CQC), meaning they meet strict standards for safety, the overall standard of care, responsiveness, and leadership. You can filter for CQC rating - Outstanding and Good are the top two tiers - to see the best-rated homes, or try narrowing down by specialist care required or weekly fee. The average weekly cost of nursing care in Leicester is around £1,250, although Continuing Healthcare (CHC) or NHS-funded nursing care may help cover fees for those who are eligible.
If you're unsure where to start, our Care Experts are here to help. We'll build a free, personalised nursing home shortlist based on your loved one's care needs and budget, helping you feel confident every step of the way.
