About Mill River Lodge
Residential and nursing care for older people and younger adults is available at Mill River Lodge, part of Shaw’s employee-owned care provider. Shaw’s wider care provision covers residential and dementia care, alongside support for complex needs such as mental health and learning disabilities.
Individual care plans record residents’ preferences and support independence, dignity and choice. Chefs prepare varied meals from monthly rotating menus, with familiar favourites and alternative options for different tastes. Residents can eat in communal dining areas or in their own rooms, giving them a choice of communal or room dining.

Questions families ask
Can they cater for medical, cultural or religious diets?
Yes. Medical, cultural and religious dietary requirements are included in individual care plans.
Are activities compulsory at the care home?

How much does Mill River Lodge cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Mill River Lodge for its weekly fee. As a guide, West Sussex council paid on average £1,098 a week for a nursing care place for people aged 65 and over in 2024-2025, against £1,102 across England (GOV.UK adult social care finance report). People who pay for their own care are usually charged more than councils pay.
