About Stow Healthcare

Who We Are

Stow Healthcare is a family of care homes owned by CGEN and managed by CEO, Kay Cox. A focus on family drives the way we run our residential homes, nursing homes and memory centres which are dedicated to dementia care.

Our ‘family’ includes our loyal band of managers, carers, nurses, chefs, housekeepers and handy people, our residents, their relatives and our professional healthcare partners across Essex, Norfolk and Suffolk. This bond, the basis of high-quality care in characterful homes, has led to our string of awards, including ‘Care Group of the Year’ in the National Care Awards.

Awards, of course, are not everything. We’re proud that every one of our homes is rated ‘Outstanding’ or ‘Good’ by the Care Quality Commission and we receive regular referrals from residents’ relatives, local GPs and other respected professionals.

Visitors often remark that our properties resemble boutique hotels, rather than care homes, as they are located in unique buildings in beautiful surroundings. Whether residents come to us for respite care or long-term care, they enjoy the highest standards of service from suitably qualified carers and nurses.
