About Dalton Lodge
Dalton Lodge is a care home in Waltham Forest, providing residential care for older people from across this part of London. Many of our residents are living with dementia, we support adults with physical disabilities and younger adults, and we offer respite stays. A home should feel domestic, and in a busy city that takes deliberate effort. We protect the ordinary things: getting up when you want to, eating something you actually fancy, having a sociable room to sit in and a quiet one to escape to, and being helped by people who know you well enough to read your mood without asking. For residents living with dementia, we rely on familiarity rather than technique. The day runs in a recognisable order, we keep the staff team as steady as we can, and we ask families to tell us about the life somebody had before they arrived. Knowing what a person did for a living, or who they are asking for, changes every conversation that follows. London makes visiting easy, and we would rather relatives dropped in often and unannounced than waited for an invitation. Respite stays are available for carers needing a real break and for people regaining their strength after a spell in hospital. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. Come and see us on an ordinary weekday and ask us whatever you want to know.
