About Us

Linden Lodge Residential Home is a care home in Tamworth, Warwickshire. We provide a home for older people, including those living with dementia, and we also offer respite stays for shorter periods of care.

What we aim to offer is a settled, familiar place where people keep their own routines and their own things around them. We ask about preferences in detail, because how somebody likes their morning to go is not a small matter when it shapes the rest of their day. For residents living with dementia, steadiness is what helps most, so we keep routines consistent and staff familiar and we take the time to understand what somebody is telling us when the words have become difficult.

We should be straightforward with you about where we stand. Our most recent overall judgement from the Care Quality Commission was that we require improvement. We accepted the findings rather than arguing with them, we have a plan of work in place and we are progressing it alongside colleagues in health and the local authority. Families deserve to hear that from us directly rather than discovering it later.

If you are considering Linden Lodge for someone you love, please come and visit. Look round properly, speak to our staff and residents, and ask us exactly what the concerns were and what we have changed since. We will answer plainly rather than steering you towards a brochure.
