About
Elizabeth House is a care home in Hadleigh, Essex, operated by Runwood, and has 109 registered beds. It is part of the Runwood Homes group. The Care Quality Commission rated the home Good overall in its 2024 report, with Good ratings for the Effective, Caring, Responsive and Well-led key questions. The Safe key question was rated Requires Improvement.
The home's Lifestyle Lead recently arranged an outing to a local pet shop after a donated fish tank arrived at the home. Residents, including a resident named Susan and her husband, joined the trip to choose a new fish for the aquarium. Susan now visits the tank daily to check on the fish. The home describes trips into the community as a way of supporting residents' wellbeing, confidence and sense of something to look forward to.
