Pitcairn Lodge Nursing Home

from Donna C (Daughter of Resident) published on 30 April 2026 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My Mum has been at Pitcairn for just over a month now and she loves her room, it was great to personalise it as we wished. Mum was rather hesitant to join the great activities on offer, but it's so nice that the wonderful staff are encouraging Mum without pressure so she feels comfortable and well supported.
Mum
had some medical issues not long after moving into Pitcairn Lodge, the nursing staff contacted her GP to address and change her medication, keeping me informed constantly, which was a huge relief.
The CareHome is very clean and meals are excellent, mum loves her cuppy and cakes too.
There's always a lot of laugher and 'buzz' from the Carers, which feels very uplifting when visiting.
Reply from Jacob Hardie, Design and Marketing Assistant at Pitcairn Lodge Nursing HomeThank you for sharing such lovely feedback. We're delighted to hear your mum has settled well, enjoys her personalised room and feels gently supported to join in at her own pace. It's reassuring to know our team kept you informed while addressing her health needs. We're pleased the home feels clean, welcoming and full of warmth, with good food, cuppas, cakes and plenty of cheerful buzz.

I was a bit nervous when taking my mum into Pitcairn Lodge Nursing Home to be a resident, but I needn't have worried as the staff were so supportive and compassionate during this time and put me and mum at ease straight away. Mum has settled in well and enjoying all the daily activities, gardening,
walking, bingo, bus runs, and many more others. The staff are all obviously dedicated and mum refers to them as her friends which just shows how much work they put into getting to knowing mum. I feel mum is being very well cared for which in turn gives me great peace of mind.
Reply from Jacob Hardie, Design and Marketing Assistant at Pitcairn Lodge Nursing HomeThank you for sharing such reassuring feedback.

Mum has been in Pitcairn Lodge now for nearly a year. She is very happy there and as a family we continue to be more than satisfied with the care she receives. The staff interact very well with her and get her involved with lots of activities like outings and quizzes which she enjoys. Staff keep us
up to date with any medical issues as they have arisen and have dealt with anything that has happened promptly. It is so nice to come in to visit mum to know she will be happy, smiley and content.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My Dad moved into Pitcairn early December and although this was a huge change and adjustment for my family, I have been very happy with the service and care from Pitcairn. I live overseas so do find the distance and time difference a challenge but every time I call I am always met with informed and
happy staff. My Dad is doing really well and settling in fine. Staff at Pitcairn, in particular Ruth, have been very good at listening to who my Dad is and understanding his needs as well as really getting to know him. Ruth has also taken the time to hold video calls with me to help with any initial worries or concern I had. I'm feeling very positive and much more content now knowing that my Dad is well cared for, well fed, safe and happy. Staff have even taken him out to purchase some treats and his newspaper that he loves seeing as I'm not there to be able to do that for him. I'm really feeling thankful that he is in a place like Pitcairn.
Reply from Jacob Hardie, Design and Marketing Assistant at Pitcairn Lodge Nursing HomeThank you for sharing such thoughtful feedback. We're so pleased to hear your dad has settled well and that our team has been able to support both him and your family, even from afar. Knowing he feels safe, well cared for and enjoying the little routines that matter to him means a great deal to us.

Pitcairn Lodge Nursing Home

from Joan M (Wife of Resident) published on 15 April 2026 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Since moving into Pitcairn Lodge Nursing home at the end of December, my ex-husband is thriving due to the excellent care provided by all the staff. He had a slight dip following a short stay in hospital however he is now making huge progress. He had lost a significant amount of weight prior to becoming
a resident as he wasn't eating but he is now gaining weight due to the varied and nutritious food served.
He had become very isolated so it's great to see him socialising with other residents and taking part in the innovative activities.
At times he can be stubborn and use inappropriate language which the staff just take with a pinch of salt. All the staff are kind, caring, friendly and have made such a difference to him. Before becoming a resident, both my son and I, were expecting the worst but my ex-husband is now more like the man he used to be which is all down to the level of care he is provided with.
Thank you all.
Reply from Jacob Hardie, Design and Marketing Assistant at Pitcairn Lodge Nursing HomeThank you for sharing such thoughtful feedback. We're so pleased to hear how well he has settled and the progress he is making, from enjoying nutritious meals to reconnecting socially through activities. It's wonderful to know our team's kindness and understanding have made such a positive difference to his wellbeing.

Since moving in to Pitcairn Lodge in December, my Mother-in-Law has been very well looked after. Her medical situation was immediately understood and taken in hand. The amount of personal care she now requires is being given to her. She is very happy and comfortable with the accommodation. The social
and activities programme in the home is fantastic as it has already improved her energy levels (the lovely food also helos in this respect), increased the amount of interaction with others and got her singing again. All of this means that her well-being has been greatly improved in such a short time. The staff at Pitcairn Lodge are very kind people and obviously care about the residents.
Reply from Jacob Hardie, Design and Marketing Assistant at Pitcairn Lodge Nursing HomeThank you so much for sharing such thoughtful feedback. We are delighted to hear your mother in law has settled so well and that her care, the activities and the meals are helping her feel more comfortable, energetic and sociable.

We would like to express our sincere thanks as a family to Pitcairn Nursing Home.
The staff in The Larch ward were outstanding with the care Vic received. They were all genuine
and caring towards him and we were overwhelmed with their compassion & support during Vic's 2 years of staying there.
Although
Vic could not always get involved due to his condition, the Entertainment & Outings they laid on for the residents was enjoyable for all.
Thank you Pitcairn for everything.

We were so impressed with Pitcairn when we visited and the very friendly and knowledgeable staff. We were even more delighted to have granny move there for a short time. We couldn't speak more highly about the care and attention that the nurses gave granny. Would recommend to anyone looking for somewhere
to care for a loved one.

The staff at Larch Wing provided loving care for Michael my Father.
The compassionate care, kindness, patience and support brought comfort to him and peace to our family. We will always be grateful for the dignity and warmth shown during a difficult time.
N.B. Pitcairn management was excellent but
Sanctuary Care Finance Department extremely unhelpful.

I just want to say a massive thank you to all the staff at Pitcairn this week and especially over the last 2 days when my mum was receiving end of life care. ( there are literally too many names to mention individually) but as a family we are especially grateful to Nika the nurse on duty at the time
of her passing, who was with her and kept her comfortable to the end. All the staff have been sympathetic, empathetic, supportive and couldn't do enough for us from making cups of tea, sandwiches, bringing in chairs, and even a sofa bed to stay overnight if we wished. All our questions were answered and we were given reassurance when we most needed it. It is clear that all the staff in Pitcairn not only care about the residents but their families as well. They have eased our passage through this extremely sad and difficult time in every way. We really can't thank you all enough.

Mum had been resident in Pitcairn for just over a year. The staff took the time to get to know her and help her settle in well. They also made sure Dad was looked after on his daily visits. They both enjoyed the activities arranged in the home and a couple of trips out.
As a Family we were kept informed
about Mums care and were involved in all decisions made. On the occasions a GP visit was required this was done promptly and we were kept fully informed.
Weekly emails on activities and events was appreciated and meant we could join Mum for some of them.
Pitcairn has bright sunny rooms and Lounges, is well maintained and clean with a lovely secure outdoor space which the resident's and Families can enjoy.
Reply from Jacob Hardie, Design and Marketing Assistant at Pitcairn Lodge Nursing HomeThank you for your lovely review.
