Review from P B (Daughter of Resident) published on 15 May 2025 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
Mum has recently moved into Benridge Care Home from another care home and I can honestly say that the care she is receiving is second to none. The staff have really helped mum to settle in, and they also quickly established a relationship with me, which is brilliant as it means I feel confident we can discuss mum's care openly and honestly. The home has a lovely, homely, feel about it, and the staff are wonderful and spend time with mum, getting to know her as a person rather than simply just another resident.

From first greeting to taking me to see my friend, your kindness and care cannot be improved or bettered, having visited many similar places I can say from experience that there is no better place where people can be cared for, thank you to all the staff who always treat me well, and I go home knowing that my great friend is in safe hands.

Review from Sara O (Daughter of Resident) published on 8 December 2023 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
My mother is a resident of Benridge Care Home, she is very happy with in the home, she is always clean and well cared for, she has made good friend with one of the residents. Staff are excellent always friendly and welcoming. I would always recommend the home due to its homely atmosphere, the food is fresh and cooked on the premises daily. I have no concerns about the care my mum is receiving, I can call anytime throughout the day, and if I have a question it will always be answered by staff. I highly recommend the home, especially to anyone living with dementia.

Review from Alison M (Daughter of Resident) published on 13 November 2023 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
My mother suffers from Alzheimer’s disease and has been at Benridge Care Home for nearly a year. The staff have been wonderful with her. She has put on weight and looks much healthier. The senior healthcare assistant and the staff are lovely and they recently moved Mum to a ground-floor room as her mobility isn't great. After caring for Mum for three years, I am now reassured that she has 24-hour care and is happy, safe and well.

Thank you for taking the time to write such a wonderful review. We are so happy that we have made such an impact on both you and your mum's lives. We will let all our staff know about your feedback. Thank you again.

Review from Angela W (Daughter of Resident) published on 6 November 2023 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
Mum's been here since 2014, and during that time, her care has been fantastic. Her needs have been met on every occasion, especially over the last twelve months, as her health has deteriorated. The staff at the home are great - anything Mum needs, the home accommodates. Our family feel that we are always involved in Mum's care and are welcome every time we visit.

Review from Noreen C (Sister of Resident) published on 7 July 2023 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
I have been very pleased with the care that my sister received over the past 6 years until her death on 11/6/23.
Staff at the home have always been very caring and I have not had a moment of anxiety other than she was being cared for to the highest standard.
My sister was always well-groomed and well dressed and her room was very clean and welcoming. Her clothing in the wardrobe was always well presented.
Staff at the home (including the chef) have always been welcoming and there was always a birthday cake and a birthday tea for her and the relatives.
It is the care and support that sets any home apart from others and the home led by the manager was exemplary.

At the end of my sister's life, the home continued to be supportive of the next of kin and I thank them sincerely for their care.

Overall Experience
The home was so welcoming for the Christmas period. It was decorated beautifully! I was able to FaceTime and see the wonderful meal that was prepared too. Benridge Care Group has navigated COVID brilliantly and kept our loved ones safe from harm. All I can say is - thank you all. God bless.
