About Old Norse Lodge Care Home

Old Norse Lodge is a 66-bed residential care home located on Matthew Telford Park in Scartho Top, Grimsby. It is operated by Danforth Care Grimsby Limited and provides care for older people, younger adults with physical disabilities, and individuals with dementia.

The home serves the North East Lincolnshire area and accepts residents requiring residential care rather than nursing support. Its multi-specialism approach means it accommodates people with varying care needs, from those managing physical disabilities to those requiring dementia-specific support.

As a relatively substantial facility, Old Norse Lodge has the capacity to support a diverse resident population. The home has not yet received a CQC inspection rating, so prospective residents and their families may wish to enquire directly about its care practices, staffing qualifications, and support arrangements.
