Brockley Lodge
Brockley Lodge is a 6 bedroom unit and was opened in August 2003. Originally it was staffed 12 hours per day however, after discussions with Service users and the Community Mental Health Teams it was decided that in order to encourage residents to become more independent the unit should only be staffed for 8 hours per day. Residents are encouraged to take part in the cleaning of their bedrooms and communal areas and to make themselves brakfast and lunch with staff providing the evening meal.
“My experience at Brockley Lodge has been very good, and I have developed a good working relationship with a number of staff members, some of whom have been exceptional. I particularly appreciate not having to deal with endless forms from the DSS etc”
PHILIP BAIRD, Brockley Lodge
