We will also be regularly inspected by the Community Pharmacist, Fire Service, Environmental Health Officers, Health & Safety Executives, Placement Officers and Care Managers. Regular audits are undertaken by company personnel to monitor standards of care, appropriate record keeping and the facilities. It is our intention to seek the views of people living in the home, their relatives and other stakeholders. The manager will hold regular relative meetings and the activity co-ordinator will hold regular meetings with people living in the home.

Welcome to Lukka Care Homes
If this service has not had a CQC inspection since it registered with us, our judgement may be based on our assessment of declarations and evidence supplied by the service. Our infection prevention and control inspections look at how well people using a service are kept safe from the spread of infections. Our residents choose how they spend their day and this extends to when to bathe, when and where meals are taken, and whether they wish to participate in the planned activities within the home.
Please feel free to contact them regarding any financial queries. Optician– Optical services are available from our visiting Optician, these will be organised on a regular basis and where necessary. Ashton Lodge offers a full laundry service for people living in the centre.

– the service is performing badly and we've taken enforcement action against the provider of the service. Under the supervision of our nursing staff, residents also benefit from specialists offering their services such as physiotherapy, speech therapy, dental and optical care. The home benefits from an excellent reputation within the community, local regulatory teams and CQC for providing care with warmth, dignity and compassion in a relaxed and friendly environment. See CQC's page explaining ratings for more details about ratings and inspection practices of care homes in England.

Infection prevention and control
If any person living in the home, relative or visitor has any comments or wishes to raise any issues, the manager will be happy to discuss them. To aid this process we will hold relatives meetings on a regular basis. In the interest of security for all the people who live in the home and staff everyone will be required to ring the doorbell to gain entry to Ashton Lodge and sign into the visitors register. However, should residents choose to retain the services of their own GP, we are happy for them to do so.
Chronic medical conditions can require quality, continuous care only found in a skilled nursing facility. At Ashton Medical Lodge, you will find a team of experienced clinicians - on-site physicians, physician assistants, physical and occupational therapists - working together to manage each resident’s care plan. All our care assistants follow a structured induction and foundationprogramme, which meets the Skills for Care requirements. Many of our care assistants have previous experience of working in the care field. The care assistants work alongside and under the guidance of the trained staff.

We also encourage people to continue being part of their community and so regularly arrange trips out into the local town. Entertainers will also be coming into the centre to provide musical and singing sessions. Hairdressing– Our Hairdresser will visit on a weekly basis initially, this will build up to cater for the requirements of the people living in the centre. We try to meet all religious and spiritual needs and regular visits are made by various ministers. We encourage a multi-denominational atmosphere where people living in the home and their relatives are free to express their spirituality.
These individual needs can be discussed at any time with the Manager or the Chef. We provide a wide range of services and amenities as outlined below. If there is anything that you feel would improve the services provided, please do not hesitate to let us know.
The services of a local GP practice have been engaged, but people living in the home are more than welcome to retain the GP of their choice if he/she is willing to travel to the care centre.

Fire instructions are placed at each alarm system panel and by the lifts. We would ask that all visitors make themselves familiar with them. We would also ask that ALL visitors complete the Visitors Book on arrival and departure, so that staff are aware at all times of who is in the building in the event of a fire. Our dedicated Activity Co-ordinators provide a programme of meaningful activities which include regular outings, live entertainment, bingo, pet therapy and much more. Residents are encouraged to maintain hobbies and interests and also try new experiences.
