Review from Elizabeth (Daughter of Resident) published on 19 May 2016 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
All staff are kind considerate and friendly. They take the time to listen to residents and help them through the bad days as well as making sure the good days are as good as is possible for the resident. The building has its limitations and it would be nice to have more outdoor space again for those residents who like to get outside. However, hopefully that will be reinstated when building works completed.

Review from Janet (Daughter of Resident) published on 18 May 2016 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
Mum has been cared for in Woodside Lodge for more than 3 years. I have been extremely pleased with the care and kindness shown to her and to our family at all times. Knowledgeable and approachable staff, totally professional, a pleasure to talk to and discuss mum's needs with. The food is very good indeed, and this is important to mum. Musical Entertainment several times a week, keeping mum and the other residents involved.

Inspection ratings
We rate most services according to how safe, effective, caring, responsive and well-led they are, using four levels:
- Outstanding - The service is performing exceptionally well.
- Good - The service is performing well and meeting our expectations.
- Requires Improvement - The service isn't performing as well as it should and we have told the service how it must improve.
- Inadequate - The service is performing badly and we've taken action against the person or organisation that runs it.
- Not rated - we have not yet rated this area of the service, this is normally because the assessments we have carried out have been focused on other key questions.
