About
Rose Lodge is a purpose-built care home in Wisbech, a market town in Cambridgeshire, run by Barchester Healthcare. It has 58 registered beds and provides residential, nursing, dementia and respite care, with support also available for younger adults under 65. The Care Quality Commission rates the home Good overall, and each of its five key questions (safe, effective, caring, responsive and well-led) was also graded Good in its report published in 2018.
The home's Memory Lane Community is a homely setting for people living with dementia, designed to support their freedom of choice and to help them keep their life skills and independence. Staff train in dementia care with the Centre for Dementia Research at Leeds Beckett University. Full-time activities coordinators plan programmes around each resident's interests, including pet therapy, live entertainment, gardening and celebrations of special days, and the chefs prepare nutritionally balanced meals.
