About Fairhaven Lodge

We are Fairhaven Lodge, a residential care home in St Annes, Lancashire, supporting people who need help with daily living, including those living with dementia. We think of this as somebody's home rather than as a facility, and that shapes small decisions as much as large ones, from how people are greeted in the morning to whether they have a say in what is on the menu. Everyone here keeps their own room, their own belongings and as much of their own routine as they wish. Some people enjoy company and the busier parts of the day, others prefer quiet and their own space, and neither choice needs explaining. Help with washing, dressing, medication and getting about is given at the person's pace, because being supported should not mean being hurried. For those living with dementia we pay close attention to familiar objects, familiar faces and a steady rhythm to the day, and we take time to learn about a person's work, family and interests so that reassurance rests on something they actually recognise. Being close to the coast, a walk or a trip out is an easy part of the week for those who enjoy it. We also offer respite stays, which give a family carer a planned break or help someone rebuild confidence after illness before going home. Our most recent Care Quality Commission inspection rated us good overall. Relatives and friends are welcome, and we would encourage anyone considering Fairhaven Lodge to visit.
