Review from L F (Daughter of Resident) published on 10 August 2023 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
My Mum spent six months as a resident at Norfolk Lodge and settled in well. There were always plenty of staff who were calm, friendly and patient. Mum enjoyed the food. There were regular social activities for the residents - painting, games, planting cress, even a visit from a pony they could stroke. The home was clean and followed good safety procedures. Mum only left here as medical issues meant she needed nursing care rather than residential.

Review from Kathryn R (Daughter-in-law of Resident) published on 1 March 2022 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
My mother-in-law was discharged from hospital to Norfolk Lodge for a four-week assessment in January 2022. My husband and I found her care to be excellent. What was of particular note was the attitude of the staff which was both caring and friendly as well as professional. We and her friends who visited felt that she made significant progress both physically and mentally during her stay. My mother-in-law regularly commented on how nice the staff were and how much she enjoyed the food. I would not hesitate to recommend Norfolk Lodge.

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.
