As a leading provider of nursing care for elderly people with dementia, complex dementia, stroke, progressive neurological illnesses and enduring mental health needs. The home provides bespoke enablement care for people with a variety of shorter-term needs as well as long-term nursing care.
At Lakeview Care Home, they have the expertise and trained staff available to provide enablement health beds to people needing short-term support. These transitional placements in to the caring and secure environment of a specialist care facility have proved to be very successful with NHS partners and warmly received by short stay residents.
Working in partnership with local Trusts, they provide a number of enablement health beds for elderly residents across a number of scenarios, including:
Elderly people who are ready for discharge but are awaiting a full social services package to be put in place before going.
Elderly people who are on the road to full recovery but need some additional physiotherapy and/or occupational therapy support on a short-term basis to rebuild confidence and skills before going home.
Elderly people who require a long-term placement who can be cared for in an enablement health bed, rather than block a badly needed NHS bed, while their permanent placement is being finalised
Their service includes providing nursing care for people with complex dementias, those who have had strokes or are dealing with progressive neurological illnesses and also palliative care for residents who are reaching the end of their life.
By providing their nursing service from within the Lakeview Care Home complex, staff are able to provide a clear pathway to/from specialist complex dementia or residential, respite and enablement services. Residents can step up/step down as required rather than having to transfer to an alternative health or care setting.

During my frequent visits, I have found the staff most friendly and caring. They show a lot of patience with the residents and treat them all with the utmost respect and dignity, beyond their care duty.

His care and attention from all staff was seamless from enablement to the palliative care that he needed at the end of his life. All staff were also kind, caring and supportive to me and my family at that very difficult time.
Both Aunt and Uncle have resided at Lakeview. Each time we approached Lakeview regarding their entry we were met with nothing but help, friendliness and professional treatment. Currently, they have been all of the above and more in the care of my Aunt - first class!

My mother has been a resident at Lakeview for several years now after suffering a stroke which left her unable to care for herself and needing constant care.
Right from my first enquiry at the home to see if she could become a resident, and ever since, she (and I) have always received excellent care and attention from the friendly and devoted staff. I always feel so lucky that we were able to get her into Lakeview when you read the terrible stories of conditions at some other homes. Although I regularly visit my mother, I never have to worry about her when I am not there as I know she is being well cared for and that Lakeview will contact me if there are ever any concerns.
I would definitely recommend Lakeview to anyone with a relative who needs similar care or treatment.
I couldn't find a bad word to say about Lakeview Care Home. It's just like home from home, the staff are great and everyone so helpful and kind. If my husband was royalty he couldn't have better treatment.

My father has been a resident of Lakeview Care Home for nearly seven years. He has always been treated with dignity and the staff have gone out of their way to ensure his wellbeing. Very satisfied with the services.

My husband has been a resident since April 2018 and he has had exceptional care. The staff are wonderful and go out of their way to ensure the health and welfare of him. He is taken out for walks and joins in the activities. You don't know how much I appreciate the care and help the carers have been, it really puts my mind at rest to know that he is safe and cared for.
Amazing, friendly and helpful staff can't do enough for you or the residents. Regular fun days for all. Can't wish for a better place to care for my grandfather. A*
