A Look Inside Our Care Homes
At our care homes the staff team and volunteers offer core services alongside a choice of activities which stimulate and promote holistic wellbeing. Activities are home-based, out in the community and wider afield. As residents’ health improves and they become more independent, they are linked into organisations that run support groups in the community, such as Mind (Bexley).
We aim to deliver the highest standards in healthcare with special attention to detail and the more personal aspects of care, providing personalised support, a friendly atmosphere, without the feeling of an institutional environment.
We recognise that each person is unique and we want to provide them with the high standard of care we would like to receive in their situation. We want them to feel at home and to be comfortable, with calm, peace and enjoyment as part of their everyday experience.
Elmwood Lodge
At Elmwood Lodge clients have their own rooms and are supported in a homely, personalised environment. They are encouraged to decorate their rooms so that they really feel at home. Their privacy is maintained at all times. They are encouraged to eat and drink suitable healthy foods and participate in weekly meal planning meetings.
Staff accompany clients to medical appointments and ensure that they meet their healthcare, working with other health and social care professionals in order to achieve the best outcomes for the clients.
Maintaining Standards
The last Care Quality Commission inspection took place in May 2019, and Elmwood Lodge received a rating of Good. Our last IPC (Infection Prevention & Control) inspection took place in Feb 2021. A copy of the CQC report can be found here.
Hatherley Lodge
Located in the charming London borough of Bexley, Hatherley Lodge is a beautiful care home occupying a warm and welcoming space with 8 comfortable private bedrooms and spacious shared rooms for dining and leisure. The incredible outdoor space is a haven for our keen gardening enthusiasts.
Holistic Wellbeing
Over the years, we specialised in supporting people experiencing mental health. However, whether our residents simply require the comforts of a care home or have more complex needs the QVT team is committed to ensuring the most enjoyable days for the best quality of life.
Every resident is unique, and we honour them by providing tailored support, offering a wide range of shared or solo activities inside and outside our home.
