My husband was not encouraged to join in with activities. The care staff said " we can't force him" . They never included him in anything that was going on.
He repeatedly texted me, telling me how miserable he was. I ordered him a takeaway meal because he was hungry.

treated him like a child. My husband may be ill but I expected him to be treated with respect.

Apprehensive initially as it was the first time but it turned out well. Thank you to the staff! My husband came home safe and sound and I am sure they've done an excellent job under difficult circumstances bearing in mind Covid, staff shortage and financial responsibility.

Thank you all at Platters Farm Lodge for looking after mum on the dementia unit. The communication, kindness and help at all times (even during mum's tough times) have been hugely appreciated. Mum's safety with you is such a relief.

The care she received was excellent and when it was
time to come home after 4 weeks she was very reluctant to go but knew going back to her home was going to be OK. So thank you to you all for making my mum's recovery extra special and welcoming her with open arms.
You are all amazing - keep up the good work.

I would just like to thank the staff for welcoming me and for everything they did to make my stay comfortable and I'd like to say a massive thank you to one staff member in particular. The man is brilliant and nothing was too much, he is an asset to Platters Farm Lodge. Thank you.

Mum came here 4 weeks ago unable to hold her own weight or walk after a fall due to UTI. Being a stubborn old bird didn't expect her to try very hard with the physio but she is now walking with a frame, washing herself etc. I cannot thank the staff enough, always friendly and welcoming, showing you
a friendly face when you as a family member are anxious for your relatives. Thank you.

My husband always enjoys his stay at Platters Farm Lodge as he is always looked after well and given mental activity.
They meet his needs adequately and have both male and female carers which helps him as he cooperates better with a male carer for his personal needs.

Individually staff very kind and helpful but chronically understaffed at peak times, especially mornings.
Also at times people left in hubs or the television room with no carer present and no buzzer.
Left at tables after meals while staff are entering info on their machines.

My mum has visited Platters Farm Lodge for the last 3 Christmas periods for respite care. On this occasion, I firmly believe that Platters Farm Lodge have upped their game. Everything seemed great, the staff and the level of care and attention were first class. Well done to all concerned.

A very good experience. My only observation is that some of the information on the discharge letter was incorrect, possibly it was given by the hospital? Dad was admitted because of a fall at the start of October, not colostomy (over 15 years). He had a fracture of the collarbone due to a fall and lives
with me, his daughter, not alone.

The facilities and
activities at the centre are good although I didn’t make the most of it as I felt I was a bit young and would rather watch sport on my iPad.
I would not hesitate in going back if there was a need to and I know for sure that I will miss the staff.

Mum has had six respite stays with each one having various incidents, so management and control seriously need tightening. Incidents include loss of possessions, laundry and clean clothes mixed up. Another client's medication given in error - 'morphine, which is a controlled drug!' Discharged wearing
another client's clearly named garments. Incorrect or missing information on documents. Protective item bags taken with shampoo loose in the case with insecure cap, hence it drained into the contents. Little evidence of advisory notes being used etc. Below is as I have experienced.
