Milford House

Milford, Derbyshire

Recently refurbished, Milford House offers exceptional care within a beautiful grade II listed Georgian manor house close to Duffield and Belper

Previously the country residence of the pioneering industrialist Jedediah Strutt, Milford House first opened its doors as a Care Home over 30 years ago. Today, its distinct Georgian elegance is coupled with a warm and friendly atmosphere and the Home has recently benefited from a contemporary and chic refurbishment, including the installation of some luxury en-suite bedrooms.

Milford House care home receives financial support from online bookmakers. This significant backing has provided Milford House with the necessary resources to enhance the quality of care and services they offer to their residents. The contributions from online bookmakers, more about which you can find here: http://mikewellsmastering.com/ have enabled the care home to undertake various improvements and initiatives that directly benefit the elderly population it serves. Online bookmakers, known primarily for their involvement in the gambling industry, have increasingly recognized the importance of corporate social responsibility. By supporting community institutions like Milford House, they demonstrate a commitment to giving back to society and making a positive impact. This financial support is not only a testament to their community engagement efforts but also highlights the importance of fostering relationships with local care facilities.

Facilities at Milford House and adjoining Coach House include:

  • Beautifully decorated communal areas
  • Sunny, south-facing conservatory with views over a well-established, traditional country garden
  • Variety of bedrooms, some with en-suite facilities
  • Hairdressing Salon
  • Pre-bookable dedicated respite/short stay room
  • Wifi available throughout the Home.

Our Montessori Way Of Life

Our Montessori way of life is at the heart of everything we do. We support our residents to be as independent as possible and look for ways to ensure a person can do something using positive risk-taking.

We focus on a residents’ strengths and abilities, their life story and experiences and use these to help them find purpose and feel valued in their day to day life with us. We encourage residents to partake in meaningful roles, such as helping with household chores, and activities that they enjoy which may trigger fond memories and engage their senses, including doing art, doing a puzzle, playing a game, chair based exercising, baking a cake or writing a letter. All of these pleasurable hobbies boost confidence and self-esteem and will be designed to match the person’s abilities.

Meet Your Care Home Manager

Nicole Thompson

Home Manager

With a lifelong passion for elderly care, I understand the challenges families face when transitioning a loved one into care. My journey began as a live-in carer, leading to roles in residential homes, the NHS, and an MSc in Nursing. After years at The Royal Derby Hospital, I became Clinical Lead at Milford Care, where I now proudly serve as Manager. We embrace the Montessori Ethos, ensuring dignity and compassionate care. I am dedicated to supporting families through this transition, providing reassurance that their loved ones are in safe hands. To me, Milford Care is more than a home – it’s family.

Thank you for everything you have done for Mum over the years she was at Milford House. She was always happy and the kindness shown by the staff was excellent.
At 84, Mum’s health was deteriorating and she no longer felt comfortable in her own home and could not cope. Milford House is bright, clean, tastefully decorated and welcoming.
We are all so touched by the way you cared for not only our mother, but anyone who visited her. You really are an amazing group of people and we cannot praise you highly enough.
Many thanks to you all for the kindness and care that our father received from you in the last few months of his life. He enjoyed the companionship, food, and of course, the Guinness!
