My Mum has been living at Prideaux Lodge for over 18 months and has always been treated with exceptional care and dignity and I would highly recommend. The Management and staff are always welcoming, friendly, caring and professional. Since having to introduce lockdown due to COVID19 they have however shown their true dedication and commitment to the care, welfare, mental and physical stimulation of their residents. They have also shown care for the relatives of their residents by providing weekly email and daily social media updates of activities which, in these difficult times means so much to family members. I can not thank them enough for all they are doing.
Janet, thank you for your kind review, we have tried very hard during this COVID -19 outbreak to keep our residents entertained and also put relatives minds at rest by keeping them up to date, your support has been amazing.
Prideaux Lodge is a superb care home. I have been delighted by the professionalism of the staff and the caring atmosphere provided. I feel welcome when I visit, and my mum's wellbeing has improved enormously since staying here.

Laura thank you for your kind review, we are glad your mum has settled in so well and you feel that the home is a superb care home. I will pass these comments onto the staff.

I thought that was really good; this was his first stay here, and he will be back as long as they have room for him.
Thank you for your kind review, and hopefully next time we will have a space.

The kindness and care that the whole team showed to my dear Mum over the past five years ago has been exceptional. Mum lived with myself and my husband but stayed at Prideaux Lodge for respite care when we were away on holiday, Mum also attended as daycare once or twice a week. The team were always welcoming and treated my lovely Mum with dignity, kindness and respect and we always got a warm welcome. Mum sadly passed away in January but I will always be grateful for the support and care they provided.
Thank you for your kind review, we loved having your mum, she was a joy to look after.
Always good to see so many caring staff available at all times. It gives one comfort to know my mother is being cared for at all times.

We have a good staff team that always put the residents first.
The care that the team at Prideaux Lodge gave to my dad during his end of life care was outstanding. I cannot fault them in any way. We were very lucky to find this amazing care home.

He was such a character and has left a void within the home, thank you for your kind review.

I moved my mum to Prideaux Lodge in 2017, she was 96 years old and suffered from dementia. Prideaux Lodge was the perfect place for her. It is a small home, and as such, the staff treated her with respect, dignity and love. Her room was comfortable, with an en-suite shower room/toilet. The property is immaculate, always being improved to a high standard with dementia residents in mind, their privacy and safety a priority. The secure gardens with seating areas and places residents could grow produce. Delicious choice of homemade food and drink cooked on the premises. If at any time I had concerns or needed something done, it was put right straight away if possible, or dealt with soon after. Nothing was too much trouble. Sadly Mum passed away at Prideaux Lodge, 2019. The care and professionalism my mum received at that sad time went through to her end of life at the home. The communication I had, night or day was excellent. All the staff could not have done anymore and I will never forget how calm, caring and professional they were.
Thank you for your kind review. It was a pleasure looking after your mother and we are sad in her passing.
During the early days of my wife's residency, she has received great care and attention to settle her into her new and unfamiliar surroundings. Visitors were also made welcome with greetings and hospitality and were given daily reports of wellbeing. Results of the early care are now very apparent.

Mum has had fantastic care, gentle, nurturing and she really has had care tailored to her individual needs. The food is great and we have always been welcomed to join Mum to eat if we wanted to.
Julie, we are looking at more person centred activities and hope to involve the community a lot more. Thank you for your wonderful comments.

Great support of family who have, at times, found it stressful when settling mum.
Susan, thank you for your kind review. We try very hard to make our home a nice place to live.

My friend died in July 2019, she lived at Prideaux Lodge for several years. I was not able to visit her regularly as I live in Oxfordshire, but I rang her instead. I was able to know of the steady advance of her Parkinson's Disease. She was always happy with the place she had chosen she liked her room and found the staff warm and friendly. I was always impressed by their care when I visited her. Their work was much increased over the last year as her condition deteriorated. Their caring could not have been better.
I was visiting from 2013 - 2019 regularly. The resident always declared herself to be very happy. She was fond of the staff and they were clearly very fond of her. As a visitor, I was regularly offered a drink and the staff would be happy to move her to a more comfortable position. She was able to...

The staff and management are extremely friendly always on hand to answer any questions. The staff and management are always smart, clean and tidy in their appearance. A delight to watch. They treat everybody with the utmost respect. There is always something different on a daily basis from entertainment, crafting, gardening and days out. To mention just a few 10 out lf 10 as far as I am concerned.
Thank you for our wonderful review.
My relative seemed happy and well cared for. Her room is clean and comfortable. Staff were welcoming, friendly and helpful. I have seen many residential homes, and this seems to be one of the nicest!

I am Level 5 Health and Social Care Management qualified. I lead my professional care team in delivering the highest level of care and support for our residents ensuring a person-centred approach is taken.
I feel that maintaining a strong relationship with residents and their relatives and understanding the important contribution that these relationships make lead to the successful running of a care home.
I have worked in the care industry for 16 years and I am very passionate about social care as a whole and ensuring that standards are met across the whole sector.
I am happy for you to come in and have a coffee and meet the team to help identify, what support is available to you should you need the support of a dementia home. I can talk to you about support options including care and respite.

I have a wealth of knowledge and am very passionate in caring for my residents and ensuring they receive the best quality of care on a day to day basis. I believe communication is key especially when caring for those with dementia.

I have an NVQ Level 3 in Health and Social Care, my current job role is senior care assistant. I have worked in care since I left school. I am a fun and bubbly person who brings happiness and energy to the residents. I enjoy getting involved in activities when they happen in the home. I enjoy keeping our families up to date with our social media page.

I am a calm and nuturing person and always strive to make the residents feel at ease. I have an NVQ Level 3 in Health and Social Care which has helped me understand all aspects of the job role and how to meet my residents needs.

I was a qualified nurse in my previous role and have been in the industry for over 20 years. I am enjoying the role I am currently in and the challenges it brings.

I am NVQ Level 3 qualified in Health and Social Care and have worked in the sector for many years. I have a methodical way of working to ensure that all my resident's needs are met. I am now currently the head of Laundry which I enjoy very much.

I have done many roles within the home from housekeeping to laundry and now I have found my niche working in the kitchen alongside some amazing chefs.

I am responsible for the ordering of cleaning supplies and ensuring the home is clean and tidy and odour free.

I am currently in charge of keeping the residents entertained through various activities such as arts and crafts, gardening club, I produce a monthly activities schedule for friends and families to see what we are doing within the home.

I have worked in the care industry for over 000 years. I am currently a senior care assistant administering medication to the residents. I also work on the care plans and risk assessments for the home.

I have been working as a step-up senior since I returned to Prideaux Lodge after some time out of care.
I enjoy working with the residents and like to ensure their day is fulfilled.
