About Pembroke Lodge

Pembroke Lodge supports people leaving hospital who need transitional living, respite or recovery before returning home. Its Hospital to Home pathway combines assessed care with personal care, medication support, mobility assistance and structured recovery goals in self-contained apartments.

Families and professionals can refer, while self-funding guests can arrange a stay directly. Stays may last from a week to several months, depending on the individual. Assessment typically takes place within 24 hours of referral. Pembroke does not provide registered nursing or acute clinical care on site.
