You’re a compassionate, can-do person with experience supporting older people. You’re good at using your initiative and working well under pressure. To you, it’s more than just a job. It’s a role where you happily go the extra mile to make a difference to the lives of older, frail people.

About Care UK

We run over 120 homes and day clubs across the UK. We provide residential, nursing, dementia and end-of-life care for older people. As one of the UK’s leading care home providers, our goal is to help every employee fulfil his or her potential – with first-class training and support. 

Elizabeth Lodge is a very welcoming purpose-designed care home with a great location in Enfield, Greater London.

We provide personalised residential, nursing and respite care for older people, including individuals who have Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia. We also offer supportive and compassionate end of life care.

Our experienced team gives each resident the highest possible standards of care. We work with residents and their families to create individualised care plans that take into account each person’s unique needs, interests and choices. We organise lots of different activities which promote wellbeing and help everyone to stay as active and independent as possible.

Elizabeth Lodge is set in beautiful landscaped gardens and the home itself is very elegant and stylish, with spacious rooms and living areas that are full of light. Everyone here is very friendly and we always have a big welcome ready for residents’ families and friends and anyone else who comes to visit.

We are proud to be the most awarded care home provider for the last three years, and we have more outstanding rated homes than any other provider. Independence is not about where you live, but how you live, so if you’re considering care for yourself or a loved one,  discover why we’ve been trusted to care for over 40 years.
