Hyde Nursing and Care Centre


Hyde Nursing and Care Centre operated by Meridian Healthcare Ltd is built on the site of Wards 1-3 of the former Hyde Hospital.

According to their website they provide general nursing care and nursing dementia (EMI Nursing) care for older people. Hyde Nursing Home is also the home to an intermediate care service called Grange View. Grange View services are provided by Pennine Care NHS Foundation Trust. The Pennine Care team is made up of healthcare assistants, nurses and therapists who will help patients to recover and regain their independence following a hospital stay. This will include patients who have a long term condition, those who need help with dressings and wound care and people with mobility problems.

Local people generally continue to refer to Grange View as Hyde Hospital.

  6. Very appropriate for the theme. No member of our extended family is in care just now and that is indeed a relief for the time being. I have nursed in aged care, only for several years and it is a bitter sweet environment.

  7. Certainly a representation of the aging process at work here. The workers at these facilities so special. I got to know many well.
