About Marella Lodge
Marella Lodge is a nursing home in Clacton on Sea, Essex. We provide nursing care for younger adults, including people with a learning disability, people who are autistic, people with a physical disability and people with a visual or hearing impairment. We also offer respite stays. Having registered nurses on the team means we can support people whose health needs are significant and who might otherwise have to live a long way from their family in order to get the right care. Nursing here is part of daily life rather than the whole of it: the medical side is managed properly so that the rest of the day can belong to the person. We plan support individually. People choose how they spend their time, what they eat and who they see, and we help them keep in touch with family and get out of the building regularly. For people who do not use speech, our team learns how each person communicates and takes the time to get it right. Respite guests are prepared for carefully, with visits beforehand wherever possible, so that a short stay feels manageable. If you are a family or a professional looking for nursing care in this part of Essex, please contact us and come and see the home for yourself.
