Wilford View opened in 2019 and sits in Silverdale, a quiet residential area on the southern edge of Nottingham, close to Wilford village and within easy reach of the River Trent, Nottingham city centre and the city’s parks and attractions. The home is arranged across three care suites — Trent, Castle and Robin Hood — each named after a piece of Nottingham heritage and tailored to support a different level of care need. Every suite is configured with its own lounge, a separate quiet lounge for residents who prefer a calmer setting, and a dining area, giving each part of the home a self-contained feel within a much larger building. Bedrooms are spacious, all en-suite and finished to a high standard, with residents encouraged to bring their own furniture and personal possessions.
Fortava Healthcare is committed to transforming dementia care through innovation, compassion and evidence-based practice, and Wilford View — with its Outstanding CQC rating — is one of the homes where that commitment has been independently recognised at the highest level. The three-suite layout allows care to be matched to the level of need a resident has at any given stage, with the suite environment, daily routine and team adjusted accordingly. Person-centred care, dignity and supporting independence sit at the centre of the approach, led by General Manager Tammason Carlyle and the wider Wilford View team. The home’s calm sensory gardens, dedicated quiet lounges, and a layout designed for clear sightlines and accessible movement around the building have all been considered with the needs of residents living with dementia in mind.
Daily life at Wilford View is shaped by an unusually rich set of on-site facilities for a Nottingham care home. Residents have access to a cinema room for film afternoons and group events, an on-site café for casual visits with family, a hairdressing and beauty salon for routine appointments without leaving the building, and landscaped sensory gardens designed for both relaxation and quiet socialising. A dedicated GP, visiting hairdresser, chiropody treatment and in-room call bells round out the everyday support. The home is set up around a real community feel — three suites with shared lounges and dining spaces, regular activities, and a focus on making each resident feel part of an extended family rather than a resident in a building.
