Brief description

Granvue is a care home offering rehabilitation for up to eight people between the ages of 18 and 65 who suffer from long-term mental health problems. It is part of the Community Care Trust (South Devon) Ltd, which is a registered charity that provides a range of services for people with mental health problems in South Devon.
The home is set in a quiet residential area with attractive sea views over Torbay.

It is about five minutes walk to a good range of local shops and about twenty minutes walk from Torquay town centre. There is a steep driveway up to the front door of the home from the road and a few parking spaces on level ground at the top of the drive.
The home has seven bedrooms (one double), a lounge (with adjacent quiet room), a dining room, and a room on the top floor that can be used for training, therapies (such as massage) and meetings.

Admissions to, and discharges from the home are planned carefully, and follow-up support from the staff employed at the home can be available on an outreach or drop-in basis. The Registered Manager and deputy manager are registered mental nurses, who supervise the care planning.
At the present time the homes minimum fee commences at 350 pounds.

The service states that they receive block funding for all residential, hospital and community network services and as such do not have a fee for individual services.
