Shedfield Lodge was built in the 1800's as a Manor House set in the Victorian Rural Pastures at the heart of the Meon Valley, close to the select villages of Shedfield and Wickham. We are only a few minutes from Fareham. To this day the building has been restored to reflect the original design and this is now a long established care home, specialising in dementia, for the elderly. Set in our own quiet equestrian grounds housing a recently restored stable area, we benefit from many horses and Shetland ponies grazing the surrounding fields. We have a beautiful landscaped garden featuring a fishpond with easy access for wheelchair users.

Shedfield Lodge consists of large private bedrooms (including 2 double rooms) all with hot and cold water and many with en-suite facilities, allowing us to offer comfortable accommodation for 34 residents. All our bedrooms have large windows providing excellent views across our beautiful grounds.

Each room offers privacy whilst maintaining the safety and comfort of our residents. All rooms are tastefully furnished but can be individualised to suit personal tastes. We have created a home from home atmosphere and an important part of feeling comfortable is having personal items, furniture, linens or anything else that will make an individuals room their own. Communication facilities coupled with nurse call systems mean that your loved ones are never more than a button push away. All Rooms have a Smart TV

Our staff are fully trained in all areas of care that is an essential part in keeping our quality high and current. There are many facets to the training which include Dementia & Alzheimer’s, First Aid, Moving & Handling, Drugs Administration, Health & Safety, Fire Evacuation, Food Hygiene, Adult Safeguarding, Hazardous Chemicals, Challenging Behaviour, Infection Control, Risk Assessments, Care Planning & Pressure Care. These are carried out regularly and all the staff are encouraged to further their skills with NVQ training in Care.

It is of vital importance that the staff continually develop so that they are aware of the ever changing techniques of caring for elderly people, from those physically disabled to those with mental care needs.

At Shedfield Lodge we take pride in the range of activities we have available for residents. We understand how important it is to keep the mind active. To help promote this we encourage everyone to participate in as many of our activities as possible. Remember at Shedfield we also operate unrestricted visiting hours. 

Shedfield has a vast amount of animals to look at including horses, ponies, chickens and the resident cat. We also have an entertainment coordinator who arranges outings and all of the entertainment around the home keeping it person-centred and adapted to the needs of the Service Users whilst listening to the families for ideas. One of our entertainment coordinators currently also works on the care side so understands the needs of each Service User.
