Care Homes Owned by Benridge Care Homes Ltd

can discuss mum's care openly and honestly. The home has a lovely, homely, feel about it, and the staff are wonderful and spend time with mum, getting to know her as a person rather than simply just another resident.

very welcoming for guests I really cannot recommend this care home highly enough.

start of COVID-19, and personally, it felt like a living nightmare.
We cannot think of anywhere else we would rather our beloved Dad have been; he had the best of the best throughout all his time with Asmall Hall.
We were losing Dad when he was initially admitted into care from a six-week respite. But with their love, care and support for our Dad and ourselves, we eventually had our lovely Dad in our lives for four more years.
We cannot thank the whole amazing team enough at Asmall Hall.
They managed all our rollercoaster of emotions, and I do not know how we would have coped at times.

and above all able to meet our mum's needs with patience, kindness and dignity.
Mum had very complex needs and could be very challenging. Thank you to the night staff who are often forgotten for the endless games of ball and singing /dancing and your patience, she didn't like to sleep!
Unfortunately Mum died in December, the end-of-life care was outstanding, the dignity and support offered to Mum and us as a family will never be forgotten, you are all angels.
As a family, we will never be able to thank you enough for all you did for our lovely, lively and often a bit naughty Mum, she loved you all.

was the number of attentive staff who were with the residents in the lounge. Most of the other homes I had visited were lacking of any staff let alone staff actually interacting with residents. From the moment she moved in, she settled really quickly, this was helped by the many activities and entertainment provided for residents, she really is living her best life. She has gone from being depressed and anxious to outgoing and chatty, this is 100% down to the caring, compassionate activity-led environment she now lives in. I feel incredibly lucky that they had space for her when we were looking!
Thank you for doing an incredible job!

manager, nurses, carers, receptionist, kitchen and cleaners are all just fabulous, great care is given to all residents and going the extra mile shows. You feel so welcome when you arrive.
I have been in care myself for over 30 years but this home definitely beats any I have worked in or even seen for that matter and that is down to these fabulous people working at Asmall. I have finally relaxed knowing my mum is receiving the best care I could wish for and what my mum deserves.
I can't thank you all enough you are all doing a fantastic job. Just a lovely homely environment.

at ease, living a more fulfilled life. Her advancing dementia poses occasional challenges still but I have observed how the staff treat her with kindness, listen to her concerns and try their best to bring some fun along the way. I have observed how the other residents seem to behave like they are part of this community.
This has been fostered by the clear leadership of the home manager. She clearly cares about her residents and has demonstrated her dementia skills in dealing with my mother's challenges. The staff are friendly and care about their residents.

they had a nice room available. Mum moved in the next day. Since she's been there, she's brighter, happier, chattier, she's getting all the hydration and warm nutritious food she needs, and the managers are acutely attentive. Making the decision to place Mum in a care home setting was a personal ordeal, and finding such a place has rested my mind. I'm happy that Mum is so well cared for, the food is excellent and is presented beautifully - that effort speaks volumes. I've seen such kindness and patience towards the residents, it is heart-melting, and there are so many daily activities! We are delighted that this care home exists, and its 'Good' accreditation doesn't do it justice.

that my great friend is in safe hands.

place. From the very first day, we felt a huge sense of relief.
The experienced nurses and carers are experts at managing his challenging behaviours. All the staff, from the top down, treat him with dignity, patience, humour and kindness. He is always clean-shaven, hair combed, and smartly dressed which was always important to him.
His behaviour is still very challenging and unpredictable towards staff, but we know that he is getting the best care at Asmall Hall and we are so happy and grateful to have him in such a wonderful place and to be so well cared for.
Words alone can’t explain how highly we regard this care home. He has been a resident here now for 14 months.
It's his home.

fresh and cooked on the premises daily. I have no concerns about the care my mum is receiving, I can call anytime throughout the day, and if I have a question it will always be answered by staff. I highly recommend the home, especially to anyone living with dementia.

mobility isn't great. After caring for Mum for three years, I am now reassured that she has 24-hour care and is happy, safe and well.

involved in Mum's care and are welcome every time we visit.

on away. They immediately contacted the family about any concerns or queries they had about my mum’s well being. Thank you all.

of care. The Good Companions team are inspirational.

lovely the food was.
Mum has vascular dementia and was always anxious at home, but now she seems alot happier.
The staff are all so lovely, kind and calm; they are loving to each and every resident.
We are so happy and relieved; it's a big weight off our shoulders.
I cannot thank each and every one of the staff enough for all they do to ensure Mum is living the best life she can.

Mum was being cared for, both professionally and with genuine love. The entire team became Mum's 'family' during which was a terrible time with lockdown, right up until she passed away. They very quickly learned of Mum's needs, despite her being unable to communicate through speech due to her condition and when she deteriorated, they always made her feel loved and respected. They made the whole ordeal so calming for all involved. It made our family feel so confident that she was being looked after all the time. We will forever be grateful to the care manager and the team for the genuine love and care that they showed Mum and would have no qualms at all about recommending Good Companions to anyone.

better place for mum.

on this experience, I would recommend Good Companions as a trusted and caring company. I would have no hesitation in putting my father in their care for any future occasions.

always caring despite residents sometimes showing challenging behaviour. Activities are varied and frequent, even though Mum is now bedbound she is included when it’s possible. I am very grateful for the care Mum has received and do not hesitate to recommend Good Companions Care Home.
