Palliative Care

Tailored to your personal needs

 We endeavour to provide excellent standards of care and are aware that people coming to Cleeve Lodge are entering a different phase of their life.  Each staff member of Cleeve Lodge is aware of the care that each particular resident wishes to receive.  In order to achieve this we have in-depth and ongoing conversations with residents and relatives to ensure we all know residents particular requests, especially near the end of their life.

April 2019

Cleeve Lodge was awarded the Gold Standards Framework Care Homes Accreditation Award at COMMENDATION status for care provided for people in their final years of life.

Wishes are always respected

We all understand that this is a very sad and difficult time.  All family members are talked to about their relative’s wishes and are guided through what to expect.

When one of our residents dies, the whole team is affected as everyone is regarded as family.
