Elizabeth Lodge Rest Home

I chose Elizabeth Lodge Rest Home for my father mainly on first impressions. The first being the smile I received and the cleanliness of the home. The room my dad had was ensuite and very comfy. A very good menu was provided every day. The attention my dad received was very one on one which helped him immensely. At his passing, the management put extra staff so he was never alone until his death and hours that followed. I myself can only thank them and hope the if I needed somewhere, Elizabeth Lodge Rest Home would be for me.

This is an incredible nursing home for people with dementia. The love and care they give to clients is remarkable.

Carers always find time to talk and engage with clients.

My father was a resident at Elizabeth lodge before passing away in August this year - a total of 18 months. his short illness and the process of his passing were handled with care, tact and sensitivity by the management and staff. Medical care was called for immediately and whenever thought necessary.

The whole episode was in keeping with everything I'd come to expect. The care shown to my father over his residence was wonderful, as if the staff were personal friends. I have nothing but admiration for all the staff involved in his care and wellbeing.

The staff are very caring and have looked after my aunt for the last 3 years. A short while ago her sister who was also a resident, passed away and the staff showed considerable care and concern to both my aunt and our family. My aunt is very happy there and well looked after. We celebrated her 90th birthday and they put on a party tea for her with a birthday cake. She was so pleased and we all had a lovely tea to remember. A big thank you to the manager and staff.

My aunt has been a resident at Elizabeth Lodge for a few years now and seems happy, contented and relaxed there. We visited today for her 90th birthday and were made to feel welcome. She was presented with a lovely cake complete with candles which was a very nice thing. We had a good visit. Thanks go to the friendly and helpful staff.

Talk to relatives with any concerns regularly. Alarm cushions in bedroom and day chairs- always accompany vulnerable to toilet or change of room.

I have used this home for 2 relatives for over 3 years and anyone with a relative suffering from Dementia will find it difficult to criticise. The environment is excellent and no noticeable smells which I have experienced before at other locations. Just keep up the good work.

I visit my aunt every couple of weeks. I find the home very friendly. I am always greeted by smiling staff who tell me where my aunt is sitting. I am asked if I would like a drink and told how my aunt is. There are normal activities going on, card making, colouring, playing games etc. Everyone is invited to join in and helped to make the most of their day. Having had relatives in several homes in the area I regard this as the best I have been in. The staff are excellent with a low turnover which speaks for itself.

My mum has been at this home for a year now and she has been very well cared for. The staff are all very caring and friendly and nothing is every any trouble. The home is very clean and welcoming. My mum is very happy there.

This care home is outstanding. Whenever we visit as a relative we are offered a cup of tea. The residents all seem content and probably happy. Our relative, whenever she sees a carer will tell us how wonderful they all are. The carers are calm, positive and so caring - I do admire their patience. I believe they are all sent on courses updating their skills whilst looking after dementia patience.
