About Abbey Wood Lodge Care Home
Abbey Wood Lodge provides residential and dementia care for older people, including specialist support for residents living with Parkinson’s. Its purpose-built home is designed with dementia-friendly features such as colour-specific areas and clear signage, helping residents recognise and navigate their surroundings. Care can be arranged for both short and long stays.
An activities and wellbeing team organises daily opportunities for communication, reminiscence, movement and social interaction. Residents can personalise rooms with familiar belongings, while the home also supports pets visiting under supervision and can help residents retain a GP where the practice remains in the catchment area. The service is particularly distinctive for specialist care for people living with Parkinson’s alongside dementia-focused design and support.
