About Holly Lodge

Holly Lodge is a residential care home in Stourbridge, Dudley, looking after older people who need support with daily living. Many of our residents are living with dementia, and a number have physical disabilities or sight and hearing loss. The house and the routine are shaped around that. Calm surroundings, clear ways of finding your way about, good lighting and unhurried staff do more good than anything else, though we use equipment and adaptations where they genuinely help. We want this to feel like somewhere people live. Residents bring their own belongings, keep their own habits, choose how they spend the day and see visitors when they like. Meals are planned around what people actually enjoy, and there is company for anyone who wants it and a quiet corner for anyone who does not. Respite stays are available alongside permanent places, whether to give a family carer a planned break or to support someone while they regain confidence after illness. Families are part of life here. We keep relatives informed, welcome them at any reasonable hour, and ask for what they know about the person, which is usually more useful than any form. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. Please come and look round at a time that suits you and ask us whatever you need to ask.
