About
Stainton Lodge Care Centre is a residential care home in Middlesbrough, providing care for up to 73 residents. The home is rated Good by the Care Quality Commission, with Good grades across all five key questions: safe, effective, caring, responsive and well-led (report published 2023). Its approach centres on personalised nursing plans, which residents and their families are encouraged to help shape to suit each person's needs.
Residents are invited to decorate their bedrooms to make them feel homely, and can choose which shared social areas to use for socialising with other residents or taking part in the ongoing activities. The home aims to support residents in making their own decisions and keeping their independence where possible, which it links to supporting mental wellbeing. Its management describes a professional service with a personal touch, and the home accepts people for long-term stays, short-term convalescence and holiday stays.
