Lower Meadow

Thanks and best wishes to a great team x

We would recommend Lower Meadow without hesitation.

My Mother has been at Lower Meadow for some time now. Very unsettled at first , but is very much more calm & settled now. While the dementia will only get progressively worse, the positive transformation in her physical condition has been profound since moving to LM. The staff helped this process & have been very supportive & caring, even during the difficult times. The Management at LM have been equally supportive, including providing clear & timely communication.

My Mum recently went for 4 weeks rest-bite and decided to stay permanently. She suffers with Parkinson's disease and was struggling at home with her mobility. It has taken quite a bit of adjusting and leaving her bungalow and having to accept it has to be sold to pay for her care is heartbreaking however we now she's safe and well looked after. She has a lovely large room with an en-suite wet room. There are daily activities, outings out in a minibus no worries of meals, washing and sorting household bills

Otherwise, he's safe & warm & I feel happier about him now.

Amazing care home, fantastic staff! Always update me regarding my dad and always happy to help, been odd time where my dad has complained about stuff and they have gone above and beyond. Always kept dad's dignity! And supported him

We were greeted very warmly and made welcome when we arrived to look round. Mum spent 6 months at the home and during that time all concerns were looked into and mum cared for as best they could, maintaining dignity and with love. In her last days, we were looked after given a room to rest and food whilst we stayed with mum in her last days.

I found the support given really wonderful by everyone from care staff t management. The end-of-life care for my husband was excellent.

I visited my wife everyday for the 5 months of her stay and all day/night the last week of her life and was always made very welcome. Thank you.

They made my mum feel very welcome for 2 weeks stay. It was her first time and although the first few days were challenging, once she settled, she was participating in activities and the staff took her out and made a Jamaican curry with her. The staff are fabulous and the residents are lovely. Overall, a lovely experience for my mum.

I came into this care home because of my mobility. The staff always offer to help me with having a shower and washing my hair. My room is always cleaned. I enjoy my food, there is plenty of choices. The activities are helpful. I know the management and I know I can always go to see them if I had a problem. I am so lucky to be cared for here.

We have noticed significant improvements in Mum's mobility and her interactions with staff and other residents. The care home itself is modern, clean and well laid out and there always seems to be a staff member available to help. There is a lovely community atmosphere and I feel that all the staff are genuinely committed to making their residents feel happy and fulfilled.

I would highly recommend Lower Meadow to anyone looking for a home from home for their loved one.

Lower Meadow Care Home, it's amazing staff and management, is a fantastic place for any person requiring help and support. They are welcoming, warm, passionate about their residents and always available to chat. All requests are acted on swiftly, the staff can't do enough for you. A big shout out to one man who is a fantastic staff member, amazingly approachable, understanding and supportive. The activity programme, fitness sessions, response to resident requests and numerous adventures have brought new vigour to my Father. They ensure happiness, freedom, support, care and laughter. We personalised his room, his routine, his social circle has grown and he is all the better for it. Emotional and nutritional support is fantastic, meals are reported as fabulous and it's been an incredible start to life in residential care. Thank you.

Staff are helpful, kind, understanding and look after the patients with love and compassion.

Since Mum has been in Lower Meadow there has been a big improvement, she feels safe and looked after and has put on some weight as she thrives on routine and goes to the dining room every day for lunch at 12.30. My three brothers and I are very happy with her care and the fact that she is more like Mum again, it has lifted a lot of pressure.

Lower Meadow has been a fabulous home for my mum. She has made many friends, and there is never a dull moment. The staff are amazing and always happy to help. The atmosphere is so homely and welcoming to residents and visitors alike.

Lower Meadow is such a lovely place with kind and caring staff. Always things going on and the manager is always available to talk to. I’m so glad my mum is there as I know she’s safe and well looked after. It gives me comfort knowing she is being cared for so well.

I think Lower Meadow is a credit to Runwood Homes.

Sadly Mum's health continued to decline and her room became her 'home'. We could not have wished for better and can't thank the team enough for the constant care given. Mum had complex health issues and although physically frail, the staff did all they could to keep her spirits up, involved as possible in activities, happy and safe. Nothing was too much trouble, Mum was well looked after throughout. Lower Meadow is truly a special place, thanks to the care and expertise of all the team.
