Langdale Care Homes provide a comfortable and supportive environment for seniors, with experienced staff and services tailored to meet individual needs. Our care homes offer the opportunity to engage in sociable activities while receiving the necessary level of care, allowing residents to maintain their lifestyle and well-being even as their abilities change. We strive to create a warm, homelike atmosphere where residents feel valued and cared for.

When an older person can no longer live safely or comfortably at home, and the level of care needed exceeds what family or friends can provide, a residential care home is an excellent option. Factors to consider include the level of care required, the individual's preferences for social interaction and activities, and the proximity of the care home to family and friends. Langdale Care Homes offer a range of care levels and a team of specialised staff who work closely with the NHS and other multidisciplinary teams to support residents' health and recovery.

Residential care homes are suitable for individuals who require assistance with various tasks and a higher level of care than can be provided at home. This may include seniors with physical or cognitive health conditions that necessitate 24-hour nursing care, such as advanced dementia, severe mobility issues, or complex medical needs. Eligibility for residential care depends on an individual's specific care needs and the admission requirements of the care home.

At Langdale Care Homes, our Care Manager works closely with the potential resident, their family, and their physician to conduct a comprehensive assessment of their care needs. This assessment takes into account the individual's physical, cognitive, and emotional well-being, as well as their social and cultural preferences. Based on this evaluation, the Care Manager determines the appropriate level of care and assists with the transition to our care home.

Langdale Care Homes offer a wide range of activities and amenities designed to promote residents' physical, mental, and emotional well-being. These may include exercise classes, arts and crafts sessions, music therapy, gardening clubs, and organised outings to local attractions organised by a dedicated activities and wellbeing coordinators. Our care homes feature comfortable common areas, dining rooms, and gardens where residents can socialise and relax. We also offer on-site services such as hairdressing, physiotherapy, and podiatry to cater to our residents' needs.

The safety and security of our residents is a top priority at Langdale Care Homes. Our care homes are equipped with secure entry systems, 24-hour staffing, and emergency call systems in each resident's room. We also have specialised equipment and facilities to support residents with limited mobility, such as hoists, handrails, and adapted bathrooms. For residents with cognitive impairments, we provide a safe, structured environment with clear signage and secure outdoor spaces to prevent wandering. Our staff receives regular training in safeguarding and risk management to ensure the highest standards of care.

At Langdale Care Homes, we understand that our residents' care needs may change over time. If a resident in one of our assisted living facilities begins to require more extensive support, our Care Teams will conduct a reassessment of their needs in consultation with the resident, their family, and their healthcare team. If it is determined that the resident would benefit from transitioning to nursing care, we will work closely with all parties to ensure a smooth and supportive transition to one of our care homes with nursing. This may involve arranging specialised equipment, updating care plans, and providing emotional support to the resident and their family throughout the process.

We recognise the vital role that families play in supporting our residents' well-being and quality of life. Langdale Care Homes encourages open communication and collaboration with residents' families, inviting them to participate in care planning meetings, social events, and regular reviews of their loved one's progress. We offer flexible visiting hours and provide comfortable spaces for families to spend time together. Our staff is always available to address any concerns or questions families may have and to provide updates on their loved one's care. We also offer support and guidance to families who may be coping with the challenges of a loved one's changing needs, including referrals to local support groups and resources.

At Langdale Care Homes, we understand that the cost of care can be a significant concern for many families. We offer a range of financial assistance options and can provide guidance on accessing funding sources to help cover the cost of care. These may include local authority funding, NHS Continuing Healthcare, and personal budgets. Our admissions team can help families navigate the assessment process and provide information on the various funding options available. We also offer competitive self-funding rates and can provide advice on financial planning for long-term care. Our goal is to ensure that everyone who needs our care can access it, regardless of their financial situation.
