About Langley Lodge Residential Home

Langley Lodge Residential Home is a care home in Wisbech, Cambridgeshire. We provide a home for older people and we also offer respite stays, whether that is to give a family carer a break or to support somebody through a period of recovery after a spell in hospital. What we aim to offer is a settled, familiar place where people keep their own routines and their own things around them. We ask about preferences in detail, because how somebody likes their morning to go is not a small matter when it shapes the rest of their day. Some residents want company and conversation from breakfast onwards. Others want a newspaper, a quiet chair and to be left in peace. Both are entirely reasonable and neither needs justifying to us. We should be straightforward with you about where we stand. Our most recent overall judgement from the Care Quality Commission was that we require improvement. We accepted the findings rather than arguing with them, we have a plan of work in hand and we are progressing it alongside colleagues in health and the local authority. Families deserve to hear that from us directly rather than find it elsewhere. If you are considering Langley Lodge for someone close to you, please come and visit. Look round properly, speak to our staff and residents, and ask us exactly what the concerns were and what we have changed. We will answer plainly rather than steering you towards a brochure.
