Introducing The Dean Neurological Centre
The Dean Neurological Centre is a CQC-registered nursing home in Gloucester, run by Elysium Healthcare No.2 Limited. Its CQC registration covers adults of all ages, including people living with dementia, physical disabilities and sight or hearing loss.
At its most recent rating, CQC judged it Good overall (July 2026). Caring was rated Requires improvement. It is one of 41 CQC-registered care homes in and around Gloucester; 37 of those are rated Good or Outstanding.
The local picture
Choice is wide here: the 25 nearest other care homes are all within 3 miles, 23 of them rated Good or Outstanding, and the closest is Redlands Acre, under 0.5 miles away.
It is registered for needs that fewer services nearby cover: sight or hearing loss (8 of the nearest 25).
1 of the 25 nearest rated care homes has a more recent rating than this one.
It sits in Longlevens ward, classed by ONS as urban (nearer to a major town or city), among the 30% least deprived neighbourhoods in England. NHS services here are planned by NHS Gloucestershire ICB.
Within about a 10-minute walk there is a pharmacy (10 min), a shop (10 min), a park (6 min) and a bus stop (1 min), which matters for residents who can go out and for visiting family.
What it may cost
We estimate The Dean Neurological Centre at £1,520–£1,860 a week for nursing care (dementia), based on published prices in the region. Over a year that is roughly £79k–£97k.
Where a resident needs nursing, the NHS pays part of the fee straight to the home as NHS-funded nursing care, regardless of who pays the rest.
Council help is possible below £23,250 in savings: ask Gloucestershire Council for a free care needs assessment.
How long it has been running
Registered in July 2022, it has 4 years on the CQC register.
CQC has published 9 overall ratings for it (2017–2026), starting at Requires improvement and improving to Good.
