Since Mum coming to the care home in February and unfortunately her declining health, Cleeve Lodge staff have been treating Mum with great dignity and respect. Making her last few months feel that she is in a family environment.

Thank you so much for your lovely review, it is very much appreciated by all staff. Mum has become a part of our Cleeve Lodge family and is a pleasure to care for.
My Nan stayed here on respite whilst I went on holiday with my parents. She really enjoyed her time here, the staff were very friendly and helpful. The food must have been good as she actually ate. My Nan even joined in with the activities and enjoyed the company.

Thank you for your positive comments. Hopefully you and your family managed to have a restful holiday. I know that Nan enjoyed herself and we would love to have her visit us again.

My mother recently died aged 103 after moving into Cleeve Lodge three years ago. Whilst independent, her eyesight, hearing and progressively mobility, deteriorated and she became increasingly dependent on staff. She was indeed fortunate to have been placed in Cleeve Lodge. All the staff looked after her in a professional, caring and respectful manner. The ethos was fully inclusive and the care excellent. I have nothing but praise and respect for the staff at all levels. On her behalf, thank you.
Thank you for taking the time to say such wonderful things about the team at Cleeve Lodge. It was a pleasure to care for your Mother. She will be sadly missed but we all have such fond memories of her time with us.
We are very lucky. This home is the best anyone can ask for. The staff are brilliant, helpful and cheerful. I have been here 8 and a half years and I do not regret one moment.

Wonderful staff with a truly caring attitude, have made my mum most welcome and at home. Mum has smiled more in the last year than she has done for many years and the staff have helped myself and my sister through a difficult time. I could not recommend Cleeve Lodge any higher.

Thank you for your review, it really helps us to constantly work to improve our care and service.
My stay at Cleeve Lodge was like staying at a nice hotel but with carers on hand when needed. The staff were friendly and helpful and I am looking forward to going back to stay for respite later this summer.

My father has only been resident in this home for the period 2/5/16 - 5/10/16. He passed away on this date. The care and attention given to my father was excellent. He enjoyed the care and attention provided by the staff. Nothing was too much. The food was superb as he was alway praising how good it was. He participated in activities where possible which kept his mind active. The staff were friendly and supportive at all times. The end of life care was exceptional. I've already booked my place for later life!!
The staff are most patient, kind and respectful. There is a continued programme of activities and outings, and plenty of good, well-trained staff at all times.

My sister has dementia and has been in care for 14 months. The care she receives is really good and they are very kind to her. They have taken a weight off my mind.

I am very pleased with the care home. The staff are excellent, always willing to help and you can always talk to them about anything, they then do the best they can to help you. My dad does feel safe and secure there with 24hr assistance which he needs.

We have been extremely pleased with the care and support given to our relative. Despite our grandmother presenting multiple challenges with hostility and memory issues - the staff are extremely patient, gentle, respectful and professional. Our grandmother has settled in well due to the kindness and support offered to her at Cleeve Lodge. There are interesting and appropriate activities on, almost every day as well as trips out. We are always kept informed of significant information and the home is kept very nicely - clean with interesting displays.

I am Cerisa, known as Risa, Registered Manager at Cleeve Lodge Residential Home in Downend. We care for adults over the age of 65 who require support with their daily living or who simply require companionship.
I first started working in care in 1998 and moved to Cleeve Lodge in 2008. I have NVQ Level 2 & 3 in Health & Social Care and recently achieved my Level 5 Diploma in Leadership & Management.
Outside of work, I live with my husband and three teenage children. My household is very busy and noisy with my children and two dogs but I wouldn't change it for anything. My children forever make me smile.
The most important lesson that I have learnt has been that working in a team achieves much more than working in isolation. The best piece of advice that I was once given was to believe in myself as I can achieve great things.

I am Helen Haughton, I support the Homes in the Kew Care Group as Operations Manager. I started working in health & social care in 2001 when I graduated from Cardiff University and joined Kew Care Group in 2008. I was the Registered Manager of Cleeve Lodge Residential Home for 10 years achieving an Outstanding CQC rating in 2018. In addition to this, I had been working alongside the other Managers within the Group for several years but took on the operations role full-time in 2018 and now split my time between the four Homes.
The best piece of advice that I was once given was to teach and mentor others and they will be the best reflection of you.
