About Newfield Lodge
Newfield Lodge is a residential care home in Castleford, Wakefield, offering a comfortable and settled home to older people who need support with daily living. We care for residents living with dementia, and we offer respite stays for people who need care for a short period or whose usual carer needs a rest. We aim for ordinary life, properly supported. Residents choose when to get up, what to do with their day and how much company they want. There are things going on for those who enjoy them and no obligation for anyone else. Meals are cooked here, preferences are remembered, and food is treated as one of the pleasures of the day rather than a task to be got through. Dementia support runs through everything we do. We learn each resident's history and habits so that reassurance means something, and we keep routines familiar and the pace unhurried. Staff who know a person well can head off distress long before it builds. We work closely with local GPs and community nurses so that health concerns are picked up early, and we keep families properly informed rather than only ringing when something goes wrong. Relatives are welcome whenever it suits them. The Care Quality Commission most recently rated us good overall. If you are thinking about a move for yourself or a family member, do come and see the home and ask us whatever you like.
