About
Blossom Lodge is a purpose-built care home in Barnsley, Yorkshire, registered for 89 beds. It provides residential, nursing and dementia care. Nursing care is for people with complex or long-term health needs, and registered nurses are on duty around the clock. Dementia care begins with a personalised plan drawn up with the home manager, professionals and families, and is delivered in a homely setting that aims to preserve independence. Residential support includes accommodation, meals, help with washing, dressing and medication, and home-cooked food. Residents can personalise their rooms with their own belongings, and the home organises activities with local community groups.
