Care Homes Owned by The Orders of St John Care Trust in Lincolnshire

All in all, a very pleasant and well run care home.

My father was only a resident for a short time before he passed away. He was discharged from hospital following a cancer diagnosis and he deteriorated rapidly. All of the staff showed great care and compassion and we will always be grateful.

She was treated with respect and her dignity protected. The nursing team constantly reviewed her medication to keep her pain free and reduce her anxiety until she passed away peacefully.

I am the granddaughter of a resident who was in this care home for about 4 months, I can only say that the care was absolutely shocking, she spent so much time being shipped away in an ambulance to hospital due to falls and carers not being vigilant, she also broke her wrist and once the bone had healed the cast was not removed while it was literally disgusting and brown from god only knows what, she had a fall in which nobody found her for a while and she hit her head twice and ended up In hospital yet again but I think it's truely disgusting that an 84 year old women with severe Alzheimer's who the care home was aware that she was a fall risk was left on her own for so long. Also we found her teeth under the bed and nobody knew about that, she was left to sleep in urine soaked sheets and the covers were just pulled up to cover it so clearly the carers were aware. We found her unconscious in a chair at the entrance of the care home. No one knew how long she was there.

Digby Court is quiet, peaceful and safe. The staff are kind and considerate. They are responsive to requests and they communicate well. Family are made to feel welcome and there is always a cup of tea!

The staff have some difficult and testing times with my partner but have managed her superbly.

My partner is well cared for at Whitefriars. The carers, the cooks and not forgetting the cleaners all contribute to making it a happy place.

Thank you

We were unsure where to put mum when she needed a care home but we are so glad we picked Gregory house. It is a home from home and the staff are all great at what they do. Mum was very independent so thought she would find it hard to settle in but no she now calls it home. Keep up the good work.

Mum went from hospital to Beckside for end of life care. She was there less than 2 weeks but the standard and quality of the care as well as the administration involved was simply magnificent! From our first contact all staff from the manager down were empathetic, friendly, flexible, professional and took their time to explain things to my sister and I and offered us support as well as Mum. We cannot praise the home or the staff highly enough.

Mum initially went to Whitefriars for respite care. The staff have been so kind and attentive to smooth the transition from respite to permanent care. Mum enjoys the lovely garden, and has spoken about enjoying her meals. She joins in with activities and interacts with other residents, who all seem friendly. All staff and management have been excellent.

I am very grateful to the staff for making my mother feel so much at home during her stay and treating her with both respect and kindness.

I would happily recommend Gregory House to other people.

The staff provide thorough and sensitive care and the food and range of activities has been excellent. Gregory House is well managed and the senior care team are always available and willing to discuss plans. Communication has also been excellent. Thank you for looking after my Mum so well.

The home and staff have been very helpful during the initial months of my mother going into the home. Whilst she naturally took some time to settle, they were always supportive and guided us both through the process. Every time we visit the home she is happy and has now settled in well. The staff are always friendly and there is a full program of weekly entertainment with singers, choirs and even a pair of Alpacas! Keep up the good work!

Boultham Park House is a welcoming, friendly and caring home. Residents are treated with kindness, respect and dignity. Activities are provided very regularly, the food is good.

I moved in for some short term stay but I have decided to stay. The staff are so outstanding in every way including the love that is outstanding in every way the home is so friendly & welcome to everyone, its home from home just like family.

I would drop in unanounced on several occassions before Mum moved in always found welcoming, helpful, friendly staff. The atmosphere was always relaxed and homey. They assisted in an 'above and beyond manner' To help me place Mum with them and have been open and honest and communication excellent every step of the way I brought Mum home from Spain due to dementia and have felt supported every step off the way. Mum has settled well - it's a big extended family

Having spent just over five weeks in hospital, my wife was transferred to Apple Trees and on that day she phoned me and said, 'I think I have gone to heaven', in what sadly turned out to be her last few weeks of life. The staff all made her so comfortable and happy; she really was in good hands. She was treated with love, kindness and dignity in the time there. Ann loved people, and she enjoyed getting to know them and their families. She always asked names so she could tell me about them. The same kindness was shown to me; thank you. I was offered the chance to stay the night beside her bed, and because of that, I was with her holding hands when she passed away peacefully in her sleep. I will never stop telling anyone who will listen how wonderful Apple Trees is. Every single member of management and staff has my deepest thanks for showing such loving, caring and dignity. Thank you all.

Would certainly recommend
