About Stratfield Lodge Residential Home

Stratfield Lodge is a residential care home in Bournemouth supporting a wide mix of adults. Some of the people who live here are older, including those living with dementia. Others are younger adults, people with a learning disability, autistic adults, people living with mental health conditions, people with physical disabilities or people with sight or hearing loss. A mix like that only works if support is genuinely individual, so that is how we plan it. Somebody who wants a quiet and predictable life gets one. Somebody who wants to be out, busy and involved gets support that makes that possible rather than support that gets in the way. We review arrangements as people change, because what somebody wants does not stand still. For people living with dementia, familiarity carries the weight. Consistent faces, a steady shape to the day and staff who do not hurry or correct. For autistic people, the environment is part of the care rather than the backdrop, and noise, lighting and changes of plan are things we work around deliberately. Respite stays are available too, giving a family carer a genuine break. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. Please get in touch if you would like to visit.
