More than 20 residents and a significant number of staff at a nursing home have been struck down with gastro, with at least one person admitted to hospital. A source from Grovedale’s Homestyle Belmont Grange said chaos reigned at the nursing home with so many frail and elderly residents sick, and a large number of staff also taken ill. Homestyle chief executive Tim Humphries confirmed 21 residents currently had gastro. A Department of Health spokesman said one resident had been hospitalised.
