About Broadlands Lodge Care Home

Broadlands Lodge is a 66-bed residential care home located in Postwick, near Norwich in Norfolk. The home is operated by Danforth Care No. 1 Limited and provides care for a diverse range of residents, including older people, younger adults, and those with dementia, mental health conditions, physical disabilities, and sensory impairments.

The home's multi-speciality approach means it accommodates people with varying care needs within a single setting. Its size allows for a structured care environment while serving a substantial number of residents across different client groups.

The home does not currently hold a CQC rating, as it has not yet been inspected by the Care Quality Commission. This may indicate the home is relatively new, has recently changed ownership, or is awaiting its first inspection. Prospective residents and families should verify the home's current registration status and inspection history directly with the CQC.
