About Us

Drake Nursing home is an EMI Registered Nursing Home, whose owners and staff aim to provide a high standard of care and accomodation. The home itself is a grade II listed building, built circa 1860 and situated in a private tree-lined road.

Drake Nursing Home provides both short term and long term care for older people with dementia, mental illness and physical disability.

The ethos of Drake Nursing Home is to provide a warm, caring atmosphere with an emphasis on good home cooked food and activities. We also have a lovely sensory garden for residents to enjoy on warmer days.
