About Claydon Lodge Care Home
Claydon Lodge Care Home is a residential care home in Chesterfield, Derbyshire, and we are home to older people who need support with daily life. We think of the building as the place where people live rather than a place where care is delivered, and we try to make the difference between those two ideas obvious the moment anyone walks in. We provide residential care for older people, including those living with dementia, and we support residents with physical disabilities and with visual or hearing impairment. We also offer respite stays, which can give a family carer a proper rest or allow someone to try life here before making a longer decision. Dementia care runs through much of what we do. We take time to learn about a person's history, their preferences and the rhythms of their day, because that knowledge is what allows us to offer reassurance when someone is anxious or disorientated. For residents with sensory loss, we adapt how we communicate and how we arrange rooms and shared spaces so that nobody is left out of conversation or activity. Families are welcome here and we would rather hear a concern early than find out later that something was wrong. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good, and we work to hold that standard in the ordinary details of every day in Chesterfield.
