Mildenhall Lodge care home provides the best personalised residential, nursing and dementia care for older people on a short-term or permanent basis.
The purpose-built care home is designed to give residents maximum space, choice and luxury. Each bedroom is spacious and has its own en-suite facilities, plus quality furnishings and fittings. The home has its own café, bar, cinema room and hair salon.
When your loved one joins the home, the team works hard to get to know them and the rest of your family, so they can provide care that's personalised to the individual. They'll learn about residents' life stories, interests, likes and dislikes to inform care and activities plans, enabling them to continue to enjoy the best possible lifestyle.
From the manager
“I started working at Care UK in 2014 through an agency for Glastonbury Court. I’m proud to have worked my way up, having started in the domestic team, then moving into care and a managerial position as a residential lead at Davers Court, and now Home Manager for Mildenhall Lodge. I see managing a care home as a privilege. I am very passionate about my role and doing the best for the home, residents, relatives and colleagues. I believe that being open and honest, relatable, reliable and approachable to all groups is very important to achieve the best outcomes for all. I love working at Mildenhall Lodge because of the challenge of my new role and I’m excited to build new relationships with the team and most of all the lovely residents and families here. To be successful in this role you need to have patience, empathy, and an understanding of different residents, staff, and family members. You should be polite, always be there to listen and try and understand every situation through different eyes. The best part of my job is seeing the residents happy, having fun and being able to live their lives the best they can. A big passion of mine is football and I love to spend time with my daughter. We love to watch her dad playing football all weekend.”
