The Warren is a purpose-built residential care home providing high quality elderly care, including dementia care.

At The Warren, we pride ourselves in having created a relaxed, happy, loving family atmosphere with staff who always provide high quality care to those we support. The extensive and varied range of activities and entertainment offers something for everyone. The surrounding area boasts the stunning Norfolk Broads and English coastline as well as the liveliness of Norwich city centre.

Life at The Warren Care Home

Ensuring that we deliver high quality care to those we support isn’t our only priority here – we also want to offer excitement and, most importantly, to ensure that everyone feels at home. That is why we employ trained staff who are committed to delivering a stimulating activities programme and nutritious cuisine, which are supplemented by services and facilities that are designed to make life here as pleasant as possible.

Our team

Our staff are the face of our home, so it is important that each of them embodies the values of Barchester and genuinely loves looking after others. The high level of care they provide, combined with the unique personalities that they bring to the home, are what makes us stand out amongst the rest.

Tracey Cumby

General Manager

Hello, my name is Tracey and I am the General Manager here at The Warren.

My career as nurse began at the age of 18, when I worked in a variety of settings, including both the NHS and independent sectors.

I worked my way up to become Matron of an independent community hospital, specialising in palliative care. When my son was born, I wanted a traditional 9-5 role, so I joined the world of NHS commissioning for Continuing Healthcare. I was able to combine my career and being a mum for several years.

It was when I was in search of a new challenge that I took my first General Manager position at Barchester. During my time at Barchester, I managed both Oulton Park and Ritson Lodge.

I then took a year out from management and explored the domiciliary care world as a clinical lead, but soon realised how much I missed managing my own home, so I decided to return to the role of GM with my batteries fully recharged!

What people say about us

"I cannot speak highly enough of The Warren, to such an extent that if I, myself, were needing residential care, this is the place I would want to be. The home itself is a lovely building and the surrounding grounds and gardens are well maintained and very inviting. Every member of staff I have come into contact with is always very friendly, outgoing and does their best to accommodate the needs of the residents. It is a consequence of this and all the lovely activities and celebrations that are organised, that all the residents I see and speak to say how much they enjoy being there."

"My mother has been a resident at Barchester The Warren Care Home for nine and a half years. She became very frail at the start of 2017 and her health declined rapidly. The care she received by the carers and indeed all the staff was kind, patient and always respectful. Nothing was too much trouble and she was kept comfortable and clean. Sadly, she passed away on the 20th January with my sister and I by her side. Attention was then turned to us and we were given the same kindness and compassion right up to when the undertaker took our mother away. Barchester The Warren Care Home has some exceptional staff who go beyond their normal duties. They treat all the residents with respect and understanding and make it a home from home."

"When coming to The Warren, I was very apprehensive, but there was no need to worry at all. The carers came into my room to introduce themselves and made me welcome with flowers and chocolates. Since then I have had no worries. I am looked after 24 hours a day, if there's anything I need, they will get it for me. Food is lovely and you get a choice at each sitting and where possible is home cooked. Entertainment is on nearly all week in the lounge and you get a list each week to let you know. I love it here."
