Devon Lodge Residential Home

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Devon Lodge is a lovely and very caring home. The staff are kind and helpful. There are activities most days and my mum can take part is she wants to. The home is currently being re-decorated which make a real difference to the look and feel of the home. The staff do their very best to make the home
feel like the residents home and take the time to ensure their happiness. The majority of staff have worked here for a few years and have formed bonds with the residents.
Reply from Stacey Pym, Registered Manager at Devon Lodge Residential Home

Day time staff excellent. However, the night time staff are not very helpful or friendly. Especially when needed to get up during the night. Long response time after buzzing staff.
Food - puddings especially the puddings are repetitive.

Mum has been here for 4 happy years and is very well looked after. She enjoys joining in the plentiful activities and spending time with her fellow residents. Many of the staff have been here for several years, providing continuity of care. The staff are all caring and excellent, and there's always
a real family atmosphere unlike other homes we have visited. Thank you Devon Lodge!!

The staff at Devon Lodge are so kind to my elderly brother and try to get him involved in all sorts of things that are going on even though he now finds it hard to join in due to his condition. He always looks clean and neat when I visit which is usually once a week and the staff are always very welcoming
to me. I know the food is very appetising as I have visited when it was lunchtime! All in all the whole atmosphere at the home is lovely. It's a proper home as far as I can see!!

Overall very satisfied but there is just one area that requires attention which has been raised and discussed. In the main, the staff are very good at keeping my mother safe and happy. The grounds are very well cared for. The increases in the fees is also always a concern.

I can fully relax knowing that Dad is being cared for 24/7 and is happy in his new environment. He likes to be in the public areas and garden during the day and interacts with far more people than he would living alone. The staff are very kind and inclusive. My family are always made very welcome when
we visit.

Devon Lodge Residential Home

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My Mum has been at Devon Lodge for five and a half years now and we have always had a good relationship with the management and staff. Whilst it is regrettable that Mum's overall state-of-play has deteriorated considerably in the last 18 months or so (not due to Devon Lodge I hasten to add), it is clear
that she remains well cared for, treated with dignity always, and a valued resident. I'm not really able to comment on things such as activities these days as this is now well outside of Mum's capabilities, being mainly bed-bound and almost uncommunicative, but I have seen at first hand the staff feeding her with great patience and compassion, and generally making sure that she is still included with things such as therapy animal visits.
Communication with Devon Lodge has always been good, and they are good at making visiting family feel welcomed and looked after too. I have never had any regrets about making the choice on Mum's behalf of Devon Lodge, and they have never let us down.
Reply from Stacey Pym, Registered Manager at Devon Lodge Residential Home

Thank you for your thoughtful feedback. We truly appreciate your kind words and support as a family member. I understand your view regarding the larger group activities that Mum previously participated in, but which she no longer feels able to join due to her changing circumstances. It's wonderful to hear that she continues to enjoy her one-on-one sessions, especially her pamper sessions and the animal visits. These experiences are important for her well-being. I will make sure to share your positive feedback with the team at Devon Lodge. Thank you once again for your support.

So pleased how well my father-in-law has settled in at Devon Lodge after spending nearly 6 weeks in hospital. The staff have played a huge part in my father-in-law's recovery. When I visit, my father-in-law often comments how pleased he is with his new home. My wife and I attended the Christmas party
at Devon Lodge on Sunday 22 December. The entertainment, food and staff were all excellent. Heartfelt thanks to all the staff at Devon Lodge.

I visit every other week my long term best friend. The staff are always very happy to ensure that my friend is aware of the visit. We are always treated to tea and biscuits and made verywelcome. The residents are very well looked after and all seem happy whenever or whatever they are doing. The staff
always put themselves out for anyone but particularly the residents they ensure everyone is treated appropriately and with dignity.
