Acer Lodge care home in Blackburn is newly built (2024) offering dementia nursing, nursing and residential care for people over 55.
The home offers heart-centred and high-quality care, fostering a sense of community, well-being and independence.
Acer Lodge is committed to ensuring the comfort and dignity of the people who live there, through supporting the people who work there, to be the best they can be.
They choose their teams by assessing emotional intelligence first and attitude second. They train their people exceptionally well and their teams love their training and induction to the organisation.
They want to speak with you in person - this decision is one of the hardest ones you will ever make, so they don't expect an email or call will help you make a decision that is right for you, or the person you love.
They are happy for you to drop by at any time to meet them (there are no specific visiting times). If you would like them to spend time exploring your circumstances and planning next steps, do make contact with them as they will schedule time in their diaries to ensure you have the time and space needed for this important conversation.

I can also state that our experience to date of his new home being able to provide for all his health and care needs has been a very positive one.
All staff are extremely professional and attentive and have shown a willingness and ability to intervene and adapt to any given situation presented. This has strongly displayed to us that providing a healthy and happy environment at all times is the main focus of the care they provide here. Nothing is too much trouble and my dad is treated like family.
I would not hesitate other than to highly recommend Acer Lodge to anyone who has a loved one continuing or starting their care journey.
My dad is happy and settled and we his family have complete peace of mind, there is no substitute for that.
Thank you to all at Acer Lodge you are fantastic.
My dad moved into Acer Lodge recently from another care home. He has settled in so well. He is eating and drinking so much better and is even back to walking with help from the ever-attentive team.

My dad moved into Acer Lodge recently from another care home. He has settled in so well. He is eating and drinking so much better and is even back to walking with help from the ever-attentive team. The home is lovely, the attention to detail is second to none and such a homely place I couldn't wish for better. My dad's room overlooks the canal and is a lovely peaceful place for him. We are so happy that he has made this move. His quality of life is so much better and as a family we are happy with the care given to him we don't need to worry so much.
Thank you so much for writing this review, the team are fab at Acer Lodge and epitomises our heart-centred care philosophy. The person who leads the team will no doubt share this feedback with them, thanks ever so much.
