About Marine View Lodge
Marine View Lodge is a nursing home in Wallasey. We care for older people and younger adults who need nursing support, including people living with dementia, and we take respite admissions alongside permanent places. Having qualified nurses on site around the clock means we can look after people whose health needs are complex or changing, manage a good deal here rather than in hospital, and provide care towards the end of life calmly and without rush. Clinical care is only part of the job. What people notice day to day is whether their relative is comfortable, clean, eating well, listened to and answered when they call, and whether the people looking after them know their name and their story. Those are the standards we hold ourselves to. For residents living with dementia we keep the environment calm, routines familiar and staffing as steady as we can manage, and we take time to learn about each person's life so that we can respond to the feeling behind a difficult moment rather than simply to the behaviour. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is requires improvement, and we are not going to talk around it. We know the areas that were identified, we are working through them with the whole team, and if you come to see us we will tell you honestly what has changed and what has not yet. Families are welcome at Marine View Lodge, and we would much rather hear a concern early than late.
