About Eastrop House and Lodge
Eastrop House and Lodge is a residential care home in Basingstoke, Hampshire, supporting adults with a learning disability and autistic adults, including younger adults. We also offer respite stays for people who need somewhere for a shorter period. We run this as a home where people live their own lives. People choose how their rooms look, take part in shopping, cooking and keeping the place going as much as they want to and are able to, and get out to the things they actually enjoy in and around Basingstoke. Where somebody wants to work, volunteer or study, that becomes part of the support plan rather than an afterthought. What makes the difference here is detail and consistency. Knowing what a noisy room, a crowded shop or an unannounced change does to a particular person. Giving proper warning before anything changes. Communicating in the way that genuinely reaches somebody, whether that is speech, symbols, writing or simply patience and time. We keep the staff team as steady as we can and train people to recognise the early signs of distress and prevent it rather than respond to it. We work closely with families, social workers and health colleagues, and we welcome being challenged when we have read a situation wrongly. Our most recent inspection by the Care Quality Commission rated us good overall. Visitors are welcome to come and see the place.
