The GrandyGo Care Charter

The standards we live by

Moving a parent abroad is a big decision — so we hold ourselves to the standards your family already trusts. Everything here is benchmarked against UK best practice: NHS guidance on healthy ageing and the person-centred-care principles of the CQC and NICE.

Benchmarked to UK best practiceNHS · CQC · NICE
01 — The five questions good care must answer

Safe, effective, caring, responsive, well-led

The CQC judges every service in England on five questions. We hold ourselves to exactly the same five.

01

Safe

You are protected from avoidable harm — safeguarding, safe medicine management, a doctor on call, and secure, accessible apartments.

02

Effective

Your care is based on a proper assessment and genuinely works for you — good nutrition and hydration, delivered by a trained, qualified team.

03

Caring

You are treated with compassion, dignity, privacy and respect — as an individual, every single day.

04

Responsive

Care is shaped around you — your preferences, culture and choices — and we listen and act the moment something needs to change.

05

Well-led

A named nurse and community manager, clear records, and a culture of reviewing and improving everything we do.

02 — The fundamentals

Ten standards we guarantee

The CQC's fundamental standards set the baseline for good care. Here is how we meet each one.

09

Person-centred care

Built on your own assessment, needs and wishes — never one-size-fits-all.

10

Dignity & respect

Privacy, independence and kindness in every interaction.

11

Consent

Nothing happens without your informed agreement; your choices lead.

12

Safe care & treatment

Risks assessed and managed, including a personal falls-prevention plan.

13

Safeguarding

Clear protection from abuse and neglect, by trained staff who know the signs.

14

Nutrition & hydration

Dietitian-planned meals, monthly screening, and plenty to drink.

15

Premises & equipment

Clean, safe, accessible apartments and shared spaces, well maintained.

16

Complaints

Easy to raise a concern — and a promise to listen and put things right.

17

Good governance

Accurate records and regular review of care plans and quality.

18

Right staffing

Enough suitably qualified, caring people — available day and night.

03 — Why we're different

Everything from home — and so much more

All the reassurance of good care back home, plus a life in the sun you simply can't get there.

The care you'd expect at home

  • A qualified nurse and daily wellbeing checks
  • A personal care plan, reviewed regularly
  • Safe medication support and reviews
  • Dietitian-planned, nutritious meals
  • Safeguarding, dignity and consent
  • GP and hospital access — always accompanied
  • A named manager who knows you

…and what you'd never get there

  • 300+ days of sunshine and life by the sea
  • Your own private en-suite apartment
  • A full social calendar — 500+ activities
  • Space, freedom and a real community
  • Guided trips, boat voyages and excursions
  • All-inclusive from £995 — a quarter of UK cost
  • A place your family will love to visit
04 — Our commitments, in numbers

The best-practice benchmarks we work to

150minutes

of activity a week, with strength & balance twice — the NHS target, and our falls-prevention baseline.

6weeks

to your first full care-plan review — then regular reviews, and sooner after any illness or hospital stay.

Monthly

nutrition screening, five-a-day meals, and six to eight glasses of fluid a day.

Yearly

medication review at least once a year, with safe daily support in between.

05 — Being straight with you

A note on regulation

Benchmarked against UK standards — not UK-regulated

GrandyGo is in Kemer, Türkiye, and so is not registered with or regulated by the Care Quality Commission, which oversees services in England only. We're open about that. What we promise instead is to hold ourselves to these trusted UK frameworks — NHS, CQC and NICE — as the benchmark for everything we do, delivered by our own qualified nursing and care team, and to keep proving it to you and your family throughout your stay.
