Citylife in Lichfield November 2020

30th Anniversary for
Care Home
...............................
Rosemary Lodge Residential Home
celebrated 30 years in business this
October, having first opened its
doors in 1990.
What began as a vision in the
1980s to create a home with
personalised care for the elderly,
incorporating private en-suite
facilities (rare at the time), stylish
decor, lux furnishings, and super
comfortable accommodation, was
realised when owner, Susan
Angenent, first opened Boston House, as it was formerly known.
The first day of opening saw just three residents and four staff members, however
today the Lodge is firmly planted within the community and highly respected as a leading
private care facility in the area, with 32 residents and more than 40 employees (some of
which have been with the Lodge for 18 years).
Susan commented: “They were good times, great memories, long hours and each
member of our team had to multi-task, covering each position in the home. It’s a very
different home today but still full of love, energy and a desire to constantly improve our
services. This couldn’t be achieved without our amazing Rosemary Lodge Team of staff
led by Jane Evans, our passionate Registered Care Manager”
Staff and residents celebrated in style with banners, bunting, balloons, Champagne and
song and dance on Saturday 3rd October.
“We’d also like to remember our past residents that shared their lives with us and
their families, many of who remain friends of The Lodge. Our celebrations centre around
residents and staff living and working with us today; it’s a true privilege knowing them all.”
