About Rosemary Lodge Rest Home
Rosemary Lodge is a rest home in Birmingham caring for older people, including those living with dementia. We are a small, domestic sort of place, and most of the people who live here have spent their lives in this part of the city. The day here is not heavily organised. Help with washing, dressing, mobility and medication is given discreetly and when it suits the person, and we ask about the ordinary preferences that often get overlooked in a move, from what time somebody likes to get up to how they take their tea. Those things get written down and followed. For people living with dementia we keep routines steady and staff familiar. We ask families to tell us about the person's working life, their family and what calms them when they are anxious, and we use that every day rather than filing it away. Meals are cooked here and served at a pace that suits people. Relatives are welcome whenever they want to come, and we would far rather be rung with a small worry than have someone sit on it until it grows. Short respite stays are available, whether to give a carer at home a proper break or to help somebody get their confidence back after a spell in hospital. If you are looking at homes in the area, please come and see us on an ordinary day.
