Mill Lodge

Mill Lodge is a home care agency based in Norwich, in the Norfolk council area, registered with the Care Quality Commission to provide personal care to people in their own homes. It most likely works within about 6 miles of its Norwich office, which is our estimate rather than something the agency has told us. It is registered to care for older people, people living with dementia, younger adults, people with a physical disability, people with a learning disability or autism, people with mental health needs and people with a sensory impairment. It is part of East of England Community Health and Care NHS Trust, which has 3 branches in England. The agency has been registered since August 2013.

Mill Lodge has not yet received a CQC rating. This is normal for a newly registered agency; the CQC usually inspects within its first year or so.

Mill Lodge has not published its rates and we are still collecting figures for Norfolk. Across England agencies usually charge £26 to £36 an hour for visits and £1,200 to £1,750 a week for live-in care. Ask for a written price list that shows the weekend and bank holiday rates and the shortest visit they will do.
