About Clayburn Lodge
We are Clayburn Lodge, a residential care home in Basildon. We support adults living with mental health conditions, and we also offer respite stays. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is outstanding. We are proud of that and also clear about what it means. It is not a promise that nothing will ever go wrong here. It reflects the fact that we know the people who live here well, that our staff are properly supported, and that when something needs putting right we deal with it rather than explaining it away. Much of what we do is about structure without rigidity. For a lot of the people who live here, a predictable day, a decent meal, a proper night's sleep, medication that is right and taken, and somebody who notices how you are doing make the difference between coping and struggling. Equally, this is a home and not a treatment programme. People come and go, see their families, keep up their own interests and decide how they spend the day. Where somebody wants to work towards living more independently, we support that. Please contact us if you would like to visit. Ask us awkward questions and we will answer them.
