Our residential care is designed for residents who require minimal personal care and have made the choice to live within a care home community. Rather than being isolated in their own homes, they can benefit from a wide range of support and companionship.
Abbey Wood Lodge is uniquely placed to meet a wide range of needs for both short and long-term care.
From help with dressing and daily living activities to regular meals and easy access to visiting external professionals such as GPs, residents benefit from a safe, secure and welcoming environment with friendly, versatile care should they need it.
Our 24-hour care incorporates a wide range of expertise and capabilities, catering to varying levels of needs, from those who require minimal personal care and help with mobility to those who need greater support.
Our dedicated team of highly trained professionals work to deliver tailored support to each individual, getting to know each resident and their loved ones to deliver person-forward care whilst respecting privacy, dignity and safety. Residents are encouraged to enjoy their lives exactly as they did when they lived at home through activities in the local community and within the home.
We offer respite care for residents requiring Residential Care Services for a temporary stay of up to 4-week, subject to assessment. Whether you’re going on holiday, taking care of other commitments or your loved one needs extra help after illness or a hospital stay, we’re here to provide a smooth transition into care along with a safe, comfortable and homely environment. It is important that everyone takes time to recharge and rejuvenate now and again for their health and well-being. Respite care allows caregivers to do this whilst having peace of mind that their loved one is safe and being well cared for.
Respite care can provide a several benefits for both carers and their loved ones as 24-hour support is provided to all those who come to our home. With engaging activities each day, residents can benefit from compassionate care, fun-filled days and the opportunity to build relationships with new friends – much like a holiday of their own!
Abbey Wood Lodge caters to a variety of needs, creating a tailored care plan dependent on each individual’s needs and length of stay which can be up to 4 weeks. Residents staying at our home for a short stay have full access to all the exceptional facilities, freshly cooked meals in our dining experience and regular visits with friends and family.
We understand that making the move into a care home is challenging, but respite care allows residents, their families and carers to try living in a care setting before committing to permanent residency. It is often found that the transition into care is made easier once residents have already experienced life at Abbey Wood Lodge including the care practices, facilities and fellow residents. We can facilitate respite to permanent stays as well as multiple or regular respite stays if required.
