About Penwortham Grange and Lodge
Penwortham Grange and Lodge in Preston offers both residential and nursing care, with qualified nurses on duty at all times. We care for older people and younger adults, including many people living with dementia, and we offer respite stays as well as permanent places. Having both kinds of care on one site matters more than it may sound. When somebody's health changes, they do not necessarily have to move away and start over with strangers, and that continuity is worth a great deal to people and to their families. Nursing here means steady attention to the things that keep a person comfortable and well: medicines, mobility, nutrition and hydration, skin, continence and pain, reviewed properly and discussed with the person and their family rather than handled quietly in the background. We involve GPs, district nurses and specialists early rather than late. Around that, ordinary life carries on. People rise when they wake, keep their own furniture and photographs about them, choose where to spend the day and eat food that suits their taste as well as any clinical need. With dementia we rely on knowing somebody well, so we gather a person's history with their family and keep adding to it. Our most recent inspection by the Care Quality Commission rated us good overall.
