Questions families ask
Is someone available overnight if a resident needs help?
Yes. Staff are on duty 24/7, and each bedroom has a nurse call bell within the resident’s reach to summon assistance. For residents unable to use the alarm, staff agree suitable checks with relatives or carers.
Which health professionals visit the care home?
District nurses, chiropodists, GPs and opticians visit regularly. Qualified staff are on duty 24 hours a day and can meet most needs, with links to other external professionals when more specific input is required.
How much does Spring Lodge cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Spring Lodge for its weekly fee. As a guide, Suffolk council paid on average £1,058 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.
