About Us
The Lodge is a specialist Nursing with Care home designed to support people living with a dementia and the challenges they face. It is located within Buckshaw Retirement Village which is near Chorley.
Careful research and close liaison with the nationally renowned Dementia Services Development Centre has ensured we have four unique communities that embrace best practice in dementia care. We are very proud to have received their first ever Gold Standard accreditation for dementia design.
Each community offers something a little different. From early-stage dementia care through to 24-hour nursing care for people with dementia and further health and social needs. The Lodge covers every stage of the dementia journey.
The Market Square is the social hub of The Lodge. This is a unique destination space for meaningful activities and socialising with families and friends. This is the perfect place to relax and enjoy life. The square boasts a host of venues and destination spaces where people can wander through with purpose and perhaps take part in specially designed and appropriate activities.
The Manager writes………
“The Lodge offers specialised dementia care designed for the specific needs of the service users. This may include familiar daily routines, secure indoor and outdoor garden areas for recreation and enhanced life-skill activities. We’re passionate about building relationships that make people feel valued and important. It’s this approach that has led to us being the preferred provider of dementia care in Lancashire and beyond.”
