Layston Grove, Hertfordshire
Layston Grove is a luxurious, purpose-built care home providing an enviable environment where residents receive quality care on an inclusive basis.
Every resident at Layston Grove will enjoy a range of wonderful facilities
Built over three floors, our home includes a cinema, library, garden room, hair and beauty salon, numerous lounges and secure landscaped gardens.
Our purpose-built home is expertly designed around residential and dementia care. Expert touches include “line of sight” architecture, making it easier for residents to get around, providing reassurance that staff can easily see them and are always at hand. As we build our homes from scratch, we are able to invest in the latest technology and materials to ensure they are optimally equipped for now and the future, transforming the way our care is managed and delivered.
Exceptional Care in a Fantastic Location
Our inclusive promise provides peace of mind to our residents in knowing that their lifestyle, comfort and care needs are all catered for in one clear, fixed fee with no billable extras. Our home is within easy reach of the motorway network making it nice and convenient for friends and family to visit.
Peace of mind with our Inclusive Living
We understand when moving into a new home residents want certainty and security. From our experience, "billable extras" are an unnecessary irritation, so we don’t have any.
Everything is included in our residents’ fixed, inclusive fee. This fixed fee makes living with us easy. Residents can enjoy that glass of wine or beer with their meal, embrace the pampering and regular hair treatments in the salon or take a trip out of the home with the Lifestyle team, all of this is included.
Dedicated team delivering Person Centered Care
Our residents' comfort, well-being and safety are of the utmost importance to us. All of our new residents are welcomed with a tailored, individual care plan, covering everything from their daily medication requirements to the food and hobbies they enjoy most. This care plan is then continuously updated throughout their time living at Layston Grove.
Cinema Room
Our cinema room is great for catching up on favourite programmes or just relaxing with a film. The room is multi-purpose and can easily be converted to a games room or other communal use. We can also arrange to set up a screen for Skype calls with loved ones.
Communal Lounges
There are a selection of lounge spaces and dining rooms on each floor, allowing everyone freedom of choice and the independence to move around the building as they please.
Library
Our library provides a quaint and peaceful spot on the 2nd floor where residents can enjoy a game of chess, read a book, or just sit out and enjoy the fresh air from the balcony.
Garden room
This room has easy access to the garden and provides a bright and welcoming space. Available for to sit and enjoy the sunshine from the floor to ceiling windows or maybe partake in some indoor/outdoor planting, either way it has a very relaxing feel to it.

My husband always seems happy
In the extremely trying circumstances of the Covid pandemic, I think the staff have gone out of their way to facilitate visiting relatives to see their family members. My husband always seems happy and very well looked after, and the carers are always cheerful and very helpful. It cannot be easy for them.

Everybody is kind, thoughtful and helpful.
The staff at Layston Grove is the thing that impresses me the most. Everybody is kind, thoughtful and helpful. The home is very welcoming, clean and warm. The facilities, if you use them, are great. It is expensive but the set price, all-inclusive is very helpful knowing exactly how much to budget for on a monthly basis.

Residential & Respite Care
Our staff are equipped with the latest technology enabling them to view and update care records instantly; allowing them to devote more of their time to listen and respond to residents' needs. Our friendly, well-trained staff understand that every individual has different needs, therefore we take the extra time to get to know everyone's likes, dislikes, passions and hobbies. In doing this we can support and care for individuals in the best and most comfortable way. We are also able to accommodate those looking for short-term, respite stays (subject to availability).
Dementia Care
Living with dementia can be a very difficult and lonely experience; our home provides the care and support needed to ensure it doesn't have to be that way. All staff undergo a training course to provide them with insight into the various forms of dementia and the complexities that can sometimes go along with it. Residents living with dementia receive the patience, empathy and dignity they require in order to sustain their overall well-being.
Technology
Person Centred Software (PCS) is available to our staff through a handheld device similar to a mobile phone and plays an integral part to our care delivery. PCS enables our team to stay up to date; by the hour, on any changes to an individual's care needs or requirements. By improving efficiency within our staff teams, they can spend their time where it is most important and that is with our residents.
