About Court Lodge

Court Lodge is a nursing home in Lymington, Hampshire. We care for older people whose needs go beyond residential care, for younger adults living with conditions that call for qualified nursing, and for people with physical disabilities. Respite stays are available when a family carer needs a break or cover. Nurses are on duty here at every hour, and that shapes everything. Medication is managed properly, wound care, catheter care and conditions that vary from week to week are handled on site, and a change in someone's health is usually spotted early because the person noticing knows them well. We work closely with GPs, district nurses, therapists and hospital teams, and we press on a resident's behalf when something is slow to arrive. Dementia care sits alongside the clinical side, and the two are not separate. Somebody in pain or frightened who cannot explain it will show us in other ways, and reading that properly depends on knowing the person. So we learn about working lives, families, music, food and old habits, and we keep the day calm and familiar rather than full of surprises. For residents with physical disabilities, the emphasis is on equipment that fits, transfers done safely and without indignity, and as much independence as somebody wants to keep. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. Families are welcome at any reasonable time. If you would like to look round, ring us and come on a normal working day.
