Melbury Court Care Home

About Melbury Court Care Home

Melbury Court is one of the larger care homes in the city, on Old Dryburn Way near the University Hospital on the northern side of Durham and convenient for families in Framwellgate Moor and the north of the city. Operated by HC-One and rated Good by the Care Quality Commission, it offers around 87 beds across nursing, residential and dementia care, meaning it can support people with a broad range of needs, including those whose needs may change over time, within a single setting.

Its scale allows for a full programme of activities and on-site facilities, while its location by the hospital is reassuring for those with ongoing medical needs. As always, choosing a care home comes down to the individual's needs, funding and available places, so a visit is invaluable. Confirm current vacancies, fees and care types directly with the home and review its latest CQC report.
