Our home has been thoughtfully created to be a place where residents feel genuinely at ease, supported by a team that understands how important it is to find the right care for someone you love. Nestled within the RG postcode area, our setting benefits from the charm and tranquillity that Henley on Thames is so well known for. The surrounding area offers a peaceful backdrop for daily life, whilst remaining well connected for families travelling to visit from across Oxfordshire and the wider South East. We believe that environment plays a vital role in wellbeing, and our home has been designed to feel welcoming, calm, and comfortable from the moment you step through the door. As a nursing home, we provide round the clock clinical care delivered by qualified nurses, ensuring that residents with complex health needs receive the professional attention they deserve. Our specialisms include care for older people, dementia care, mental health support, care for adults with physical disabilities, and support for younger adults whose needs require a nursing environment. We also welcome guests for respite care, offering families and regular carers a trusted place where their loved one can stay for a shorter period, whether that is to recover after a hospital stay or simply to give everyone a well earned break. For families exploring dementia care, we understand how emotional this journey can be. Our approach focuses on preserving dignity, encouraging familiar routines, and creating meaningful moments each day. For those with mental health needs or physical disabilities, we tailor our support to the individual, recognising that no two residents are the same. Younger adults living with us are supported to live as independently as possible, with care plans built around their personal goals and preferences. Acacia Lodge is currently Not Yet Rated by the Care Quality Commission. This simply means that a full inspection has not taken place at this stage, which is common for newer registrations or homes awaiting their first formal review. We remain fully committed to meeting all regulatory standards and to demonstrating the quality of our care when our inspection takes place. In the meantime, we warmly encourage families to visit us, meet the team, and see for themselves the standards we hold ourselves to every day. Choosing a care home is one of the most important decisions a family can make, and we recognise the trust that placing a loved one in our hands represents. If you are considering nursing care in Henley on Thames or the surrounding Oxfordshire area, we would be delighted to hear from you.
