About Belgrave Lodge
We are Belgrave Lodge, a residential care home in Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire. We support older people and younger adults, including people living with dementia, adults with learning disabilities or autism, people with physical disabilities and people with a visual or hearing impairment. Respite stays are available. That is a wide range of needs living under one roof, and it only works if we plan properly. Somebody who wants a sociable, busy day and somebody who needs quiet and an entirely predictable routine can both live well here, provided we pay attention to who needs what and when. So we ask, we observe, and we adapt rather than running everyone to the same timetable. The help itself covers personal care, medication, meals and mobility, and we are just as concerned with supporting what people can still do themselves. Independence lost unnecessarily is very hard to get back, and it is often what people fear most about moving in. Families and friends are welcome at any reasonable hour. We keep relatives informed about changes rather than waiting to be asked, and if something has gone wrong we say so and explain what we have done about it. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. Please ring us and come and see the home at a normal busy time of day.
