About Loxley Lodge Care Home

Loxley Lodge Care Home is in Nottingham. We provide residential care for older people and younger adults, including people living with dementia, people managing mental health conditions and people with physical disabilities, and we offer respite stays. We aim to run a household rather than a facility. Residents bring their own furniture and photographs, keep the routines they have always had and decide for themselves how much they want to be part of what is going on. Nobody is marched off to an activity they have not chosen. When somebody moves in we spend real time on their history and preferences, from what time they wake and how they take their tea to the work they did and the people who matter to them. It is written down so that everyone working here knows it, because care that depends on who is on shift is not care we would want for our own families. Dementia support rests on familiarity and pace. We keep staffing as consistent as we can and we work out what settles a particular resident, since that is rarely the same twice. Supporting mental health needs means patience and working alongside community teams rather than separately from them. For people with physical disabilities we pay attention to equipment and how the building is arranged. Meals are cooked here and residents have a say in the menu. Visitors are welcome through the day. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. Please come and see the home for yourself.
