About Haven Lodge

Haven Lodge is a nursing home in Clacton on Sea, caring for older people and for adults whose health needs mean qualified nurses need to be on hand at any hour. That cover means changes are noticed early and managed here wherever possible rather than through repeated journeys to hospital. We care for people living with dementia, where a steady routine and familiar faces matter more than anything else we could provide, and for people managing mental health conditions, where patience and continuity count for a great deal. We also support people living with a physical disability, where dignity and practical independence matter as much as clinical care, and younger adults, whose day we plan around their own interests. Respite care is available too, for people recovering after illness and for family carers who need a break. We have not yet received an overall rating from the Care Quality Commission, and we prefer to say that outright. Until we do, come and look round, meet the nurses and carers and ask us whatever you need to, including the questions people often feel awkward asking.
