About
Lakeview Care Home, in Great Wyrley near Walsall in Staffordshire, is registered for 151 beds and focuses on nursing and dementia care. It also provides residential and respite care. The home sits in countryside and is divided into smaller units, each with its own communal lounges and landscaped gardens. Care extends to people with degenerative neurological illnesses, brain injuries sustained later in life, and the effects of stroke, including palliative and end-of-life care. Residents can move between levels of care within the home without changing setting.
The Coniston Centre, a dedicated service within the home, supports people mainly over 55 who have complex dementia and challenging care needs, using structured activities and person-centred support. The Care Quality Commission rated the home Good overall in its 2019 report, and Good for each of its five key questions: safe, effective, caring, responsive and well-led.
