Nightingale Care and Nursing Home delivers affordable and high-quality nursing and residential care for its residents. Our remarkable £2 million renovation has transformed the home into an ideal destination for people requiring nursing and residential care, including palliative and end-of-life services.
We cater for up to 59 people at Nightingale Care and Nursing Home, including those living with dementia, ensuring a custom-tailored approach giving each resident personalised care. Our home boasts lovely interiors, cosy rooms, spacious common areas, and intimate lounges. On the ground floor we have a large lounge with TV and plenty of room for activities, with two additional lounges on the first floor.
As well as caring for you, we care about your families too. Our door is always open for a chat, and our residents’ and families’ forum gives you a way to support each other. Plus, your family members are welcome in at any time, for a cuppa, or to join us for a meal.

Social activities
We place great emphasis on social activities and maintaining the type of life you have had at home, whether that is a quiet and relaxed lifestyle or an active lifestyle. We are nestled between three beautiful parks and they are perfect for our summer activities and annual picnics. Singing and dancing are favourite activities at Nightingale, with regular singers performing a variety of music. We are located just 15 minutes from Derby city centre which makes for a great day out for us to go shopping followed by a pub lunch.
Dining
At Nightingale Care and Nursing Home you will be served freshly prepared home cooked meals by our team of expert chefs. They ensure all our meals are healthy, nutritionally balanced and, most importantly, locally sourced wherever possible. Meals are served in our superb dining room, but you also have the option for food to be served in your room for a more private dining experience.
Nutrition is an important part of the care we provide. That’s why our catering team take time to get to know your likes and dislikes before putting together a vibrant and varied menu for you to choose from.
Bedrooms
We’ve created a relaxed and homely environment for everyone, which isn’t at all clinical. We want you to feel comfortable, and for your family members to feel like they’re visiting their relative’s home.
Following a large investment, the home has undergone exciting development work, and a complete, state-of-the-art refurbishment.
There are 59 bedrooms at Nightingale Care and Nursing Home across two floors. Most of our rooms have ensuites, but the ones without, have a washbasin in the room and an accessible bathroom nearby. Many of the bedrooms look out onto the garden, and most of our ground-floor bedrooms have direct garden access.

Gardens
We have a lovely garden with level lawns at the front of the house, and another secure and enclosed one at the back of the home. There are planters and beds for flowers and vegetables, plus plenty of room to sit out and enjoy the sunshine. Our residents love to watch the wildlife in the garden, or simply enjoy a cup of tea with visiting loved ones
