Woodbridge Lodge Care Home

The stay at this home has been an eye opener. The staff are very good with all the residents and cannot do enough for you. Also the food is very good and well presented. Would recommend it to anyone.

I really agree with all the nice girls and I wish them all the very best for the future. With all good wishes.

My husband has been here for more than a year, surrounded by kind and caring staff - both for him and myself. It is a small, very personal home in beautiful surroundings, lovely buildings and beautiful gardens. It feels like a family, rather than an institution. I am confident that they always do their very best to make him as comfortable as possible. Thank you.

The first thing I noticed about Woodbridge Lodge is that it has a really nice friendly atmosphere. The residents use the lounge, conservatory and dining areas to socialise so they don't stay in their rooms all day like some care homes I have seen. The staff are lovely and always seem cheerful. My mum has settled in well and she is well looked after.

Thank you so much for caring for my mother with compassion and kindness. My mother has difficulty swallowing and was still given loads of choices for food, to tempt her to eat. Staff managed to provide a room downstairs where she is very comfortable, with a lovely view of the beautiful garden and wildlife.

We moved my father from his flat in London in April which was a difficult decision and one we were dreading having to do but he has settled into The Lodge incredibly well and is being looked after beautifully. He is happy and feels at home, the staff seem to be lovely. Very relieved that the move went so smoothly.

This beautiful family feel home offers excellent support and care along with activities that stimulate and engage the people living there. The food is all home made with a good choice and lovely afternoon cakes. The gardens are amazing with some resident rooms overlooking the well maintained gardens.The staff team are so kind and caring, making everyone feel welcome and the manager is always available to residents, families and volunteers.

I was very happy with the high standard of care my mother received, especially in her final weeks. Everyone was so kind, caring, friendly and supportive. Nothing was too much trouble even at busy times. I was always warmly welcomed and offered a cup of tea. Mum had enjoyed an active, social, independent life before health problems slowed her down, so welcomed that side of the care she received. When mum's health started to decline, I was reassured that all end of life care was in place. It was a great comfort to me as mum passed peacefully away. The carers were so kind at this sad time.

My mother who has vascular dementia has been put into Woodbridge Lodge for assessment. The service and care provided by this home have been excellent. The manager and staff put in so much effort in keeping all the residents and their relatives they visit up to date on the care provided and the level of support and the care given to my mother has made such a difference to her quality of life. This is truly a well run and excellent care home.

Everybody is cheerful, friendly and ready to put themselves out. My wife is more content and happier.

Very pleased with the level of care shown during this pandemic throughout the last year. As a family, we couldn't have wished for our Mum to be better looked after. It has been good to see that the residents have been fully involved in lots of activities and that our Mum has been participating in activities we know she enjoys.

Council placement. Never heard of home before mothers admission, very homely home. Happy with her care, safety, and security. We will be happier when we can visit as and when we like. The rest of the family would like access as well.

My mum has dementia and needs 24/7 care. All the staff at Woodbridge Lodge are amazing. They have a great entertainment team and engage the residents in many different activities in which they all enjoy. The food is always of good quality at meals, and refreshments, tea and cake available throughout the day. I would highly recommend Woodbridge Lodge.

Mum has had a difficult time recently due to her Alzheimer's, leading to a spell in hospital and a temporary stay at another home. When she moved in, the staff at Woodbridge Lodge were absolutely wonderful and made her (and me) feel so welcome. They took a real interest in her and she seems to be settling in well. I've had regular updates on her progress, which is particularly helpful during this pandemic. They clearly have good strategies for dealing with her anxiety and I'm so grateful to be able to entrust her to their care.

Thank you.

My parents are well looked after and through Covid 19 the home has kept us informed daily which has reassured us, and the staff have been excellent and caring through this difficult time and safe, the entertainment is excellent and my parents are joining in, the food is satisfactory can’t thank you all enough.

I live a long way away but when I ring the staff are so reassuring and nothing is too much trouble for them.

My mother is now 101 and the care and attention she has had over the last 6 months of Covid-19 can only be described as outstanding. I am also very impressed with the communication between the home and myself. Every evening I have received a text confirming the home is free of Covid-19.

As a visitor I am always made to feel welcome. Nothing is too much trouble.

Staff always very friendly and kind to my step-mum; who has been here for three years.
