About Jericho Lodge

At the time of our assessment 3 men were living at the care home including, an autistic person and someone who was living with dementia. We undertook this unannounced responsive assessment because we received information of concern about staffing levels at the care home.

Respite Care at Jericho Lodge

As a nursing care home, Jericho Lodge in Morden can often provide respite care — short-term stays designed to give family carers a planned break while their loved one receives professional care. Respite placements typically last from a few days to several weeks, depending on need and availability.

Who might use respite care here?

Families caring for someone with dementia, physical disabilities, or complex nursing needs at home often use respite care to manage caregiver burnout, attend to personal health matters, or take a holiday knowing their loved one is safe and cared for. With 3 beds and nursing staff on-site, Jericho Lodge can manage residents with higher care needs during their stay.

How respite care works

Respite stays are usually arranged in advance through the local authority's adult social care team or directly with the home. Your relative receives the same level of care as permanent residents — meals, medication, activities, and staff support — for a fraction of the permanent weekly fee. Funding may come from the local council, your savings, or a combination. The home will need a recent care assessment and details of your relative's medical conditions and medication.

Questions to ask about respite

When contacting Jericho Lodge, confirm they accept respite placements, check their availability calendar (respite beds fill quickly in peak seasons), ask about their cancellation policy if your plans change, and whether they offer flexible lengths of stay or minimum-length requirements. It's also worth asking how they handle the settling-in period — some homes assign a key worker for respite residents to aid continuity.

Contact Jericho Lodge directly or speak with your local authority commissioning team to arrange a respite assessment.
