Listen to what Margaret has to say about her experience with Holly Lodge:
“One thing that has always been here is the kindness of all the carers, the kindness of all the staff, it’s like it’s an honour to them to look after that person…I feel like I’m coming from my home to my home.”
We don’t just look after your loved one, but we also look after you during this big change in your life.
We highly recommend you take the time to see the care home, discuss your options with the care home manager and the team and then make the decision for either yourself or your elderly loved one.
To choose a good care home you will be on the lookout for a care home that offers exquisite care, has high living standards and would feel like a second home without causing any discomfort.
The types of care offered at a care home as well as driving proximity and location convenience are most of the time the main deciders when it comes to choosing a care home.

Residential care and nursing care in a care home vary and this is usually based on the level of care that the residents require.
Residential care is ideal for individuals who need assistance with daily activities such as bathing, dressing, meals, and general supervision. Residential care homes offer a supportive environment, providing accommodation, meals, and social activities. This type of care is usually sought by elderly who have lost their partner and live on their own or don’t have much of a social circle and would benefit from companionship.
Nursing care in a care home is focused on offering a higher level of medical support. Nursing homes such as our home Holly Lodge provide 24-hour nursing care delivered by qualified nurses. Residents in nursing care homes often have more complex medical needs requiring ongoing monitoring, medical attention, and support with specific health conditions.
