What a fantastic care home.
What fantastic staff.
My husband was cared for with care, support and dignity. Not just for him but also myself, I had someone to support and talk to me at all times.
I cannot highly recommend this care home enough.
Thank you all.

My very dear friend has been in your care for four months and albeit a short stay she has found it to be warm, comfortable in lovely surroundings.
The food has been very good and the staff very friendly and caring.

The entire team at Bloomfield have been fantastic since dad's admission in February. As a relative, the most important thing to feel is that dad is well cared for and the team fulfill this in spades. Everyone we have encountered is kind, empathetic, supportive and professional. This is the first time
I have had any dealings with a care home, and this one has allayed every concern I had. My thanks to every one of them.

My father came to Kingfisher after lockdown having spent three years in another care home where he was very unhappy. He was here for 4 1/2 yrs. At Kingfisher from his first to his very last day we felt he was really cared for and part of a loving community. The Kingfisher Lodge manager is an exemplary
manager and it is a testiment to her that the home tuns so well, the staff are caring and repectful of all residents. The home is clean and welcoming. We were very happy that my father spent his final years here in this lovely environment.
Reply from Claudia Costinean, Acting General Manager at Barchester Kingfisher Lodge Care HomeThank you for taking the time to share your kind feedback. We are honoured to have supported your father and your family and we thank you again for your thoughtful words.

My mum came to Bloomfield after having falls at home. Mum loves the home and is really happy. Mum enjoys having her hair done in the salon and loves all the staff there. It is a lovely home and I always feel welcome.

At first our mother struggled to come to terms with being in a care home, but now almost 1 1/2 yrs later is now settled and happier. The staff are very good and always something for them to do most days if they wish or always O.K. too if mum doesn't want to join in.

Mam has been in the Bloomfield Home for quite a few years now. But all I can say is she has been so well looked after since she moved in. Everyone on the Salisbury ward from the Bottom to the top staff, care for her with so much love. Rekha is one lady I will mention she always comes to talk to me

My mother has been in Bloomfield for one year. My mother has dementia, but she has been cared for with a great amount of care.
All the staff are fantastic. Really look after her day to day care.

Excellent care from carers, nurses, handy men, cooks, housekeeping, indeed everyone. The compassion shown by every carer is outstanding. They care for mum with dignity. They've wllowed mum to feel safe and she is building lovely relationships with some carers. Humour is part of this. The recent refurbishment
is to a high standard and looks very stylish. Thank you. My mum has thrived at Kingfisher Lodge.

I find the staff here very pleasent. The food that Mum has is very nice & nutritious. Mums room is clean & tidy when she lets the staff in to cleanup!! We would like Mum to have more baths, we know she likes it when she in it, but can be a bit refusing, towards staff unfortunately. The hairdresser does

The staff are not just carers, they are genuinely kind, patient, and have built real relationships with the residents.
The facilities are lovely, the food is excellent and there's always something going on to keep all entertained.

My sister has been resident at the lodge for 12 years. Her care has been exceptional.
In her final days this month, the level of compassion and care has been exceptional allowing the dignified passing of Lisa outside of a hospital environment.
The staff took on the whole family - nothing was too much
trouble.

My wife, Kate (who has secondary progressive MS with complex care needs), has been at Bloomfield since May, initially for respite and then as a local authority funded resident from mid-July. I and my family were deeply relieved that and kindness has meant that she has made the transition with unexpected
ease, in her acceptance of leaving home (and me). I see her most days and am relieved and impressed with the love & affection of the staff (especial mention to Julia, nurse) & level of practical care;

Our mum arrived in January of this year, she settled really well. The staff from reception, laundry, care staff have been fantastic. Mum always looks clean and well cared for. The staff communication is very good and the family are always well informed regarding Mum's care, our visits are much more
settled not. As a family we can not fault the care.

I visited on two separate occasions, one of my longest and closest friends, during the last stage of her courageous battle against cancer. Sadly, our 54 year friendship which started during our school days, ended yesterday.
I would like to highly commend Bloomfield NH, for most importantly, the wonderful
care they gave to my dear friend. The 24 hour open door policy speaks for itself, so what you see is what you get at ALL times. This was a very important factor for me.
Bloomfield was also exceptionally clean. My friend was in a comfortable, cosy, well decorated bedroom, which could have been her one at home and not the austere bedroom that I had imagined.
From the moment I entered the home all the staff I had dealings with were friendly, polite and efficient. I would however like to particularly acknowledge the nurse/head of the unit who spoke to me empathetically whilst maintaining patient and family confidentiality.
As I left, I knew that my dear friend WAS in safe hands.Thank you.

Absolutely fantastic care provided at Bloomfield. The staff are friendly and cheerful. They did everything in helping to support my dad for the two years he lived there. It was a great comfort to know he was safe and happy there. Every single member of staff I met over the two years were excellent in
the professional quality of care they delivered. They were always welcoming and made a real connection with my dad which made him feel safe and secure. Thank you Bloomfield team, you're amazing.

Bloomfield has been amazing for my grandad, with their lovely, friendly caring staff, nothing was ever to much trouble for them, we met a lot of the staff whilst grandad was there and I can honestly say they was all lovely, his room was lovely, the home is lovely and clean, they made all the family
welcome and during grandads last couple of days whilst he was on his final journal in life they was incredible the support they gave us they looked after us as well as grandad with a mattress to sleep on and food and they kept the cups of tea coming, I can not recommend this home enough we will forever be grateful
