Care Home in Derbyshire

The Lodge Care Home is set in the heart of the Peak National Park and surrounded by six acres of picturesque garden and woodland. The Lodge is a comfortable country house which provides accomodation for 36 residents. Each new resident is provided with a personal care plan and introduced to a member of staff who will befriend them and their family, look after their personal shopping needs and assists with any concerns or worries. The Lodge is located close to the picturesque chapel-en-le-frith with easy access to local amenities and all major motorways and rail routes.

The management and staff at The Lodge are committed to providing a standard of care that embraces all the principles of excellent care home practices. The resident’s physical and spiritual wellbeing is at the heart of our plan of care which ultimately enables each resident to reach their desired goals and level of fulfilment in life. We actively promote a happy working and living environment which is both professional, courteous and fun. We believe in respecting individual preferences whilst encouraging independence.

It is important to us to respect the variations in individual needs, interests, views, lifestyle, hobbies and personalities, and the staff will make this an inclusive part of an individual’s plan of care.

ACTIVITIES & INTERACTION

We have a dedicated activity co-ordinator who is experienced in providing a varied and professional programme of ‘things to do’ and ‘places to go’. Everyday our co-ordinator will ensure that there is a full day of activities to include arts and crafts, music, exercise, baking, massage, beauty, scrabble, quizzes, shopping, local walks, news and world affairs, outings and entertainment. Promoting independence, fun and fulfilment is at the heart of this vibrant home. There is something for everyone and everyone is special at The Lodge.
