It's been quite emotional seeing my mum today but it's been lovely. I'd like to thank the staff for this visit, having not seen her for around five months. So once again, thank you and keep up the amazing work you do.

On my visit to Bramble Lodge, it was during the presence of Covid-19. I thought the staff were very professional and courteous in their approach to the situation and followed the government guidelines/directives to PPE and social distancing throughout my stay.

The staff were very diligent about keeping our surroundings Covid-safe and hygienic. Later in the visit, I was able to discuss my mother's health with the assistant manager and we have established a good relationship.

Care seems excellent. We visit (usually) three times a week and have never seen anything we don't like. My Aunt is always clean and usually doing something (like a crossword). Her hair is always brushed and looks nice. I am grateful that the staff always help her into a wheelchair so we can go and sit together in a quiet corner, have a tea/coffee together and chat. Twice a year we book the cafe and have a family party. The staff set out the room for us with cups/plates/wine glasses. it is a lovely home. they even let the dog visit (which delights my Aunt).
I have had experience of many care homes over the years and would rate Bramble Lodge among the best. The staff are caring and attentive, it is not the easiest job to carry out. I find the staff and management will listen and take action to help the residents.

The Bramble Lodge team are excellent in general and very kind towards Mum and she knows she is safe. She has never smiled as much as she does now, we feel she knows she is safe and that's down to everyone at Bramble Lodge. Finally, a word to promote the gardens, getting outside is important and Mum really enjoys the gardens and flowers come the spring and summer months.
The activities both in-house and external are good features and the gardens are appreciated by the residents and by visiting relatives.

My Mother has been a resident at Bramble Lodge for over two years. In that time, mainly due to the fact that I take my father to see his wife, I have observed probably most of the staff at work in a wide variety of roles. I have always found the staff to be very dedicated and hard-working, showing great compassion towards both Mother and Father and myself. Not only that, itis obvious that they show this compassion towards all residents and some go above and beyond to support us in what is a difficult decision to make.
She seems happy and content and very well looked after on all counts.

I visit 3 or 4 times a week and am always made welcome and visitors are free to make drinks etc. There is a room available for social events organised by relatives with crockery etc provided by the home.
I am always impressed by the fact that the staff recognise visitors and know which resident they belong to!
I would not hesitate to recommend Bramble Lodge to anyone.
