About
Heath Lodge Community Haven provides residential and dementia care for older people in North Yorkshire, with 31 registered beds. It is part of Harrogate Neighbours, a local not-for-profit that has supported older people for nearly 60 years. Staff learn about each resident's life history, music, hobbies and routines, and use this to shape daily life. Residents can use the shared lounges and dining rooms, and the gardens when the weather allows, and meals are planned around older people's nutritional needs. The home sits in the historic town of Boroughbridge, and organised outings reach further afield, including the Yorkshire coast.
The Care Quality Commission rated the home Good overall in its 2020 report, with Good ratings across all five key questions: safe, effective, caring, responsive and well-led.
