Enter and view at Lynwood Lodge care home
We visited Lynwood Lodge and spoke to staff and residents about the care they received. This report contains our findings and recommendations we put forward for improvements.
Lynwood Lodge Residential Care Home provides personal care and accommodation for up to 24 older people.
95% of residents at the Home live with various degrees of dementia.
Findings
- All residents we listened to spoke of their satisfaction at living at the Home.
- Relatives we spoke to on the day of the visit complimented the care delivered by staff at the Home.
- The Home is welcoming and well-staffed.
- Staff are clearly happy at Lynwood Lodge and this permeates the atmosphere providing very good responsive interactions with the residents.
- We found the Home to be very well managed.
- The Home has an open-door policy and visitors were present during our morning session. There is a signing-in book for visitors on arrival at the Home.
Recommendations
We feel that the creation of a ‘passport’ for each resident’s eyesight requirements and a photograph of the spectacles the individual has purchased is good practice.
