Walter & Joan Gray (Care Home)

Walter & Joan Gray Care Home is a 16-bed residential care facility for older people, located in Shetland and operated by Church of Scotland, trading as Crossreach. At its most recent Care Inspectorate inspection in August 2025, the home achieved an average grade of Good (4 out of 6), reflecting a solid standard of care and service delivery for residents and their families.

The home supports a wide range of needs, including dementia, frailty, palliative and end of life care, mental health conditions, physical disability, learning difficulties, hearing impairment, and visual impairment. This broad range of specialisms means the home is well placed to support older people with complex or changing care needs over time.

As a smaller home with 16 beds, Walter & Joan Gray offers a more intimate environment, which can be particularly beneficial for residents who value a close-knit community setting within the Shetland Islands.
