Tye Green Lodge opened in October 2005 and is a 60-bed, purpose-built home for older people in the Staple Tye area of Harlow. The home is divided into four separate living units, two of which are dedicated to the care of people living with dementia. One of our rooms is a private, short-stay room for people who require a relaxing break.

We provide hot, nutritious meals and can cater for special dietary needs. There is always a choice of dishes, and residents are involved in drawing up the menu.

Each new resident is assigned a Key Worker who will help them settle into the home, and give special attention to their individual needs. Residents benefit from a single en-suite room with private shower, phone (if required), television point and call bell system. They are also welcome to bring any possessions and items of furniture, as long as they are within the limits of safety and space is available. (Please see the section on valuables)

Each 15-room unit has its own lounge area, a fully equipped kitchen, dining area, and assisted bathroom. We also have attractive, fully-enclosed landscaped gardens.

Visiting services:

• Weekly hairdressing in our fully-equipped salon.
• Weekly beauty treatments, including manicures, facials, muscle massage and Indian head massage.
• Dentistry.
• Chiropody.
• Optical checks.

There is a busy programme of entertainment and activity in the home. A multi-denominational church service is conducted monthly and Holy Communion is offered monthly as well.

If you are interested in any of the services please feel free to ring the home directly. There is a Service Request form available to download in the “Families” section of this site.

If you are specifically interested in short breaks, they are booked via Health and Community Services. Please speak to your social worker or phone the call centre on 01438 737400.
