Meet The Manager
Helen Caul is Home Manager at Lincoln House Care Home.
Lincoln House is nestled in landscaped gardens with a peaceful courtyard featuring sunshades, benches and raised flowerbeds. All our rooms are furnished to a high standard and most are en suite with a connection for TV, Wi-Fi and a telephone. We have four comfortable lounges and several smaller seating areas.
We aim to make life as rich, fun and fulfilling as possible. Residents choose from a wide range of activities which might include going out for lunch, one-on-one activities at home or joining in with organised entertainment. A hairdresser, chiropodist, optician and Pet Therapy dog all visit regularly. Dentists can also be requested as and when needed. Personal visitors are welcome any time.
We encourage residents to be as independent as possible, with help given as needed. Some people are happy in their own rooms while others are happier in the communal sitting areas. Above all, we recognise the need to keep stimulated and meaningful activities are offered every day.
Our delicious food is nutritionally balanced and cooked using fresh produce. Everyone has a choice of menu, every day, and special diets are catered for.
