Charlton Lane Inpatient Services
Charlton Lane Hospital is a refurbished hospital which opened in the summer of 2010. It provides specialist assessment, treatment and care for older people with functional mental health problems and people with dementia.
The hospital is equipped with state of the art technology. This includes assistive technologies to ensure the safety and comfort of patients. It was designed with advice from Stirling University who are international experts in dementia and environments.
Charlton Lane has three wards, Chestnut, Mulberry and Willow. It also has a family suite and a therapy department, which includes an arts room and a physiotherapy room. Each ward has access to communal and private sensory gardens. All bedrooms are single-occupancy, with en-suite bathrooms.
The length of a person’s hospital stay will be determined by their needs and we will aim to discharge people from hospital as soon as possible. It is helpful at the time of admission if a family member or friend can accompany the person coming to hospital.
We are able to access translation services if required.
