Catherine Lodge Care Home - Enter and View
We carried out an Enter and View visit to Catherine Lodge Care Home – read our report below.
Our authorised representatives visited the home, which provides nursing and personal care for older people, with specialist care for people with dementia, mental health conditions and sensory impairments.
We found numerous areas of good practice. These included the residents and relatives we spoke to describing staff as friendly, responsive and kind. Interviewees also gave us good examples of personalised care, a wide range of activities and effective use of volunteers.
Our recommendations, and the home’s responses, can be found on p8. We are pleased to report that the home has accepted a number of our recommendations and suggestions. For example, following our visit the home is arranging a discussion with residents regarding accessible gardening activities.
