I was most impressed today when I visited my friend Janice for the 2nd time. (We are both 84) & I always dreaded going into a home after visiting at least 4 other homes in Lowestoft. Everyone of the staff was friendly & smiling & so kind. Had a fire alarm whilst there - no problem. Very well done...

Thankyou for your positive feedback, is is nice to hear that the hard work of the whole team is noticed and appreciated. We try to improve daily and build on our standards and reach our goal of a warm, welcoming, person centred home, where residents are empowered and independence is promoted
Better than I thought it would be, the caring side is good, staff try their best with the resources they have. Although they can clearly use more resources and additional hands on deck, their commitment to the residents never wavers. They go above and beyond with what they have available.

Thankyou for your kind feedback, we try every day to grow as a team and improve the service we provide.
The whole of the Stradbroke Court Management team are always professional and dedicated, but still make time for personal interactions with both Mum and us when we visit. We know we can rely on them if we have any questions or requests that relate to Mum's specific needs. They always give us time...
The care staff are outstanding and their level of caring and understanding should be applauded.
Rachel, the activities coordinator, has been doing a marvellous job and understands the need to encourage Mum or to spend one to one time with her, which is greatly appreciated by us.
The housekeeping team do a splendid job, the home is always clean and the laundry always done.
Overall, it's a great care home for my Mum.
P.S. Can the kitchen team come and cook for us, please?!!

Moving our dad from one care home to Stradbroke Court has been a blessing. Management and all staff- from the lovely carers to the housekeeping team, everyone has been so helpful, kind, understanding and forward thinking. Carers wanted to get to know dad, his experiences and his life to understand his dementia and ailments, in order to help him. What a difference to the previous care home! Dad settled in very quickly and said "Everyone is very nice and the staff speak to me!" He's made friends, can walk all around the home and even sat in the day room- a big step for him. Nothing is too much trouble. Experienced staff and obvious training skills made it stress free for dad- and also for the family. Thank you.
Thankyou for your lovely feedback. We are pleased to hear that your dad has enjoyed his time with us so far; the staff have enjoyed spending time with your dad and getting to know him properly. We strive to provide a high quality, person centred service tailored around each individual, their care, meals and well-being.
We have found the careers at the home to be helpful and very friendly when with both my father and myself. There is a very good choice of menu with both the main meals and snacks throughout the day. There in always something to entertain/occupy the residence

My brother is treated with respect and dignity and as next of kin they keep me informed of what is going on. As I live in Cheshire ,with my own health issues, this is very important to me as I can't visit as often as I would like.
I trust the staff who are very patient especially when I phone about my brother's phone!!

Mum has been here since June of 2025 . She has been welcomed and made to feel safe and part of a family . The carers are so patient and really do care . Taking the time to get to know what mum likes and doesn't , even little things like how she takes her coffee or her favourite sandwich at tea time...
Always super efficient when mum seems to be unwell or not herself , doctors are called promptly and feedback telephones through to us strong by away .
Activities are brilliant and since moving here mum has become a social butterfly attending gardening club arts and crafts , baking etc . Rachel the coordinator is brilliant .

I think overall very good with a shortage of staff. Rooms are excellent and clean. One problem is that dinner is never on time. Second part - too long wait - finished meal 1.45 too long. No problem with the chef - helpful.
