About Broadlands Lodge Care Home

Broadlands Lodge Care Home is in Norwich, and we support older people who need help with daily living, including those living with dementia, those living with mental ill health, those with physical disabilities and those living with sight or hearing loss. Younger adults are supported here too, and respite stays are available. A household this varied only works if people are treated as individuals rather than as categories, and that is how we run the place. Support is agreed with the person, written in terms they recognise, and reviewed as things change. Some residents need a great deal of hands on help with washing, dressing, medication and mobility. Others mainly want stability, company when they choose it, and a household that holds together through a difficult week. For residents living with dementia we keep routines and surroundings familiar and give people time instead of hurrying them. For those living with mental ill health the valuable thing is usually steadiness. For residents with physical disabilities or sight and hearing loss, the emphasis is on equipment that fits, safe transfers and unhurried communication. We have not yet had an overall rating published by the Care Quality Commission, which we say plainly rather than leaving you to look it up. You are welcome to visit on an ordinary day, meet the people who live and work here, and take your time deciding.
