My friend moved into Caroline House in May 2024. She was in two hospitals and two care homes over fifteen months, after needing to leave her home, and was very confused.
She was given a cheerful en-suite room at Caroline House looking into the garden. Shelves were put up especially for her to put the
She was given a cheerful en-suite room at Caroline House looking into the garden. Shelves were put up especially for her to put the
many things that she had brought with her so she could see them.
My friend did not want to go downstairs to meet with others living in the home. The staff tried to persuade her, but did not force it, and helped her to believe that this was her home from now on. Over the months, staff asked her if she would like to go downstairs, but respected her wish to stay in her room. The person running activities found how she loved colouring and gave her pictures to colour, which she enjoyed.
My friend went down to join a 100th birthday celebration, and enjoyed it. Gradually she went downstairs occasionally, and has now started asking to go down regularly.
Staff have been so patient with her, shown her respect, and gradually gained her trust. I am very impressed with them as a staff team.

I'm so pleased with Caroline House, my husband came here for a few nights Respite Care after a week in hospital. The manager and her deputy couldn't have been more helpful. The layout of my husband's room was changed to make everything work for him. He has mild dementia but severe mobility problems.
All the staff were helpful, fast in responding to the 'Call' button. It's a Victorian house - the rooms I saw were all spacious and my husband's room was light, bright and roomy. No ensuite toilet but a commode provided. His health was carefully assessed by nursing staff and his medication given as I'd asked (swallowing difficulties) Visitors welcome all through the day. Whatever time of day I visited, I was content that he was being looked after well. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this care home and my husband has said he'd be happy to return if respite care is needed again

Unfortunately my husband has now had to go on puréed foods, which I was dreading. What a surprise when the food arrived all decorative shapes and well presented. Congratulations to the company for making puréed food a "work of art" on a plate! Thank you.

Although my dad has only been here a while, I have found the premises to be clean, staff friendly and welcoming. I'm updated on his situation at all times, quickly and informed of everything. The food has looked good and smells divine, and appears to be plenty of it on offer; he appears to enjoy it.
I can't say anything about activities as I have not been there when any are in progress. So far, he appears to have settled here fairly quickly and is as happy as he can be

We moved our mum here from another care home 18 months ago. Since she has been here she is so much better. The care she receives is excellent, she is always clean and her clothes tidy. Her meals are good and she always has plenty of snacks to keep her going. The entertainment they have good for them
and we can't praise them enough for the care they give her. The staff always give us an update when we visit and also phone us with anything we need to know. Thank you to all the staff at Caroline House.

My experience of the home now is clean and tidy. Decorated in the manor of a care home, inviting, pleasant just like our own home would be. Things of interest, lots of look at and do. Activity wise, seems to be person-centred activity's.

My family have been very pleased with the care shown to Mum since she came to Caroline House last October.
In particular, Mum's personal care, her room and the food have been excellent. The staff have all been friendly and approachable, even when busy.

My mother was placed in Caroline House, June 2024, after a lengthy hospital stay due to her developing vascular dementia. She seemed to settle in quite quickly, which I attribute to the wonderful carers. She has a ground floor room with her own loo and, I believe, she is comfortable. The room is kept
clean & tidy. She eats her lunch, which looks & smells delicious, with a good appetite.
It is an older building but I think it has a good atmosphere. Mum can go to the dining room or the lounge but prefers to stay in her room. I'm happy that she is safe, seemingly happy and very well looked after.

The care my son has received is good but the home is not suited to a young stroke patient. The room was very small with no en-suite. He needed physio which was difficult to achieve satisfactory results in such a restricted area.

My partner although he was only in Filsham Lodge a few months before his passing, the care and attention given to him from all the staff involved in his care was excellent, nothing was too much trouble, all aspects of his care were given lovingly by the staff. The home was always clean and tidy. I could
not have wished for a better home for my partner to be cared for in. I want to thank everyone from the bottom of my heart for everything they did for him and myself as you all made what was a very difficult time for me so much easier to bear. Thank you so very much.

There is much kindness and care here. My relative is settled and content even though her advanced dementia makes it difficult for her to understand or communicate. There is always a warm welcome for me and I feel supported and communication is good.

Our mum has been a resident at Filsham Lodge for just over a year. She has received kindness and respect from all the staff. Whilst suffering from Dementia means she is unable to communicate fully they make sure she is comfortable and present in the general day to day life. The snacks and meals provided
look balanced and tasty. The communication between family and the team is fair and open, such that if there are any concerns I am able to raise them to get resolutions.

Mum has been at Filsham Lodge for 2 years and has responded well, despite her complex and challenging needs, to the kindness and professionalism shown by all staff in their different roles. She is well cared for, with various emerging issues resolved along the way. We are always contacted, consulted
and kept informed about her health needs and any incidents.
