Medhurst Care Home provides high quality residential care for up to 27 people. Located in Risca, Medhurst began life as a family home in the 1930’s when it was built by a local landowner and given to his daughter as a wedding gift. Medhurst was purchased by the Docherty family in 1987 and converted and extended into the care home it is today.
Our professional, fully trained staff ensure that everyone’s lifestyle choice and dignity are respected. Overseen by an experienced and highly visible Home Manager, residents receive 24/7 personal care from a skilled team of senior carers and care assistants. Whilst we do care for residents with more advanced health conditions, Medhurst also offers an ideal environment for active, independent elderly people who enjoy being part of a community.
We respect your
loved one’s choices
The happiness and wellbeing of our residents is at the heart of everything we do. Every person has a choice in how they want to life their life. Our priority is to respect these wishes and ensure every individual feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. We encourage residents to live life as independently as they can and promote social interaction with a range of activities for those who wish to get involved.
