Philosophy of Care

Our philosophy of care sets out our basic principles, values and beliefs, which under the care we provide here at Arden Lodge.

At the home we believe that by catering to your personalised care requirements we hope to provide you with a safe and warm environment that you can call home.

Our philosophy is based on following five commitments we make to our residents:

  • Person Centered Care
  • Quality homemade food, all made with fresh ingredients
  • Positive, safe, and homely environment
  • Choice and control
  • Staff who are trained and are professional in their approach.

The services we provide are tailored to the resident’s needs; from very specialist care skills to social outings, activities and entertainment.

We strive to be unobtrusive as possible whilst delivering care and support to residents.  Through empowerment and enablement we ensure our resident’s privacy, dignity and choice is upheld.

Arden Lodge believes that the resident’s needs, wishes and preferences should be promoted and addressed through an ongoing care planning review. This means that the changing needs of our residents are reviewed, where their changing needs is reflected with their care plan. Part of this process, and where appropriate we liaise with relatives, external health and social care professionals.
