Amberley Lodge

Mum has been at Amberley Lodge for 2 1/2 years now and is doing so well. She is very looked after, loved, and is happy and relaxed. The staff go above and beyond to ensure her care meets her needs and communicate with me when changes may need to be considered in relation to her care plan.

All of the staff are very helpful and take care of my niece. Her room and bed are always very clean and tidy. She is always dressed in her day clothes and appears to be quite happy with everybody that comes in to attend to her. They all treat her respectfully and she reacts to them comfortably. The Lounge on her floor has been very nicely renovated. The addition of a coffee shop on the ground floor is really welcome and nice to sit in and to have coffee with her when she is well enough. The coffee and confectionery are complimentary and very nice. Thank you all so much. Also the lady that l saw doing the cleaning did a very very good job and l did have to thank her and compliment her then and l will again now. Reception and admin are always very helpful as well. Thank you everyone at Amberley Lodge. Thanks to you all.

Cost is a worry but hopefully, she will be able to remain there for her latter years.

My aunt has been in Amberley Lodge on a permanent basis since March. As the care home is purpose built the rooms and facilities are excellent. What really makes the care home stand out is the quality and caring nature of all the staff. This applies across the board from reception, domestic staff, chefs, handyman, management and of course carers. There is a range of activities available to residents and the home arranges a lot of events which families are invited along to.

Everyone is always very welcoming.

When entering Amberley Lodge you are struck by the warm welcome from the friendly staff. They are always kind and attentive to the residents and fun too. There is often laughter which makes it a happy place to visit. There is always something going on, they celebrate every occasion, with family and friends regularly invited - their enthusiasm is infectious! They recently hosted a 97th birthday party for my mum with all the trimmings. There was a wonderful spread of food and drinks and the chef baked the most amazing birthday cake. They invited our whole family so Mum was surrounded by her children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren - 45 in total! We will all cherish the wonderful memories of that day. Thank you so much Amberley.

Mum was given a tremendous birthday party where the entire family were invited. Wonderful food, entertainment and it's no wonder why Mum is so happy here.

My mum has been a resident at Amberley Lodge for over 6 years, and I can genuinely say that she receives exceptional care from all the staff. There is a real sense of her being part of another wider family within the home, I could not have wished for a better home for her and feel so lucky that we chose Amberley. The manager and the entire team from carers to kitchen staff are a real credit to their profession. If there was a higher CQC rating than Outstanding then Amberley Lodge and their lovely staff would definitely earn it.

Thank you.

As usual, the staff was very friendly and discussed Mum’s issues in detail and openly. We will get more information after the SALT team assesses her tomorrow. Based on past experience of nearly 6 years the family are confident that Mum is being very well looked after and that the staff are true carers who are dedicated to helping old people like my mum who suffers from Alzheimer’s.

My mother was a resident at Amberley Lodge for a year. The care home has a happy atmosphere and the staff are very friendly. A range of varied events to entertain residents are held throughout the year.

It was a great comfort to know that my mother was cared for so well.

My mother has been a resident at Amberley Lodge Care Home for over seven years. It is a warm and welcoming environment with dedicated staff and management who are approachable and sympathetic to any concerns. The level of care is outstanding - my mother is always clean and well-fed and any medical issues are promptly identified and attended to. The accommodation is lovely: rooms are beautifully furnished, scrupulously clean and well-maintained. Family and friends can expect a warm welcome and functions for residents and guests are held throughout the year in the lovely garden. I would not hesitate to recommend Amberley Lodge to anyone looking for a caring and comfortable residential home for a loved one.

All the staff are very friendly, kind and helpful. They often have special events when family and friends are invited to join in. It is good to see other residents and meet their families. The home is bright, clean and tidy. The laundry service is excellent.

Excellent care from all the staff. Very understanding in dealing with my dad's issues. Facilities are good and kept in good order by the maintenance team. The events team swing into action at celebration times and brings staff/family/ residents together for fun events. Highly recommend Amberley Lodge.

My mum came here after six weeks' stay in hospital when it was decided that she'd be better in nursing rather than residential. The improvement in Mum is phenomenal. She came in August and is like a new person. Happy, well fed, cheeks glow and there is life back in her eyes. All the staff so have been brilliant.

Thanks!

Such a lovely visit as always. Staff were very accommodating from booking the visit, right up until the minute we left. We booked for a large group of 10 and were assigned the garden room which was set up beautifully and we were offered drinks and checked on throughout our visit. It was a very positive visit and it's clear to see how happy she is there - I believe that this is down to the wonderful care she receives. Even on leaving the manager made the effort to ask us how the visit was. A very deserved outstanding rating.

Visited my Granny today and as always we were very well looked after. Staff are so welcoming and friendly and were so accommodating, providing us with tea, coffee and biscuits during our visit. The home is clean and well kept and my Granny is very happy and well looked after there. Staff go above and beyond to make residents and visitors happy. We used the garden room which had been decorated for Christmas and had a lovely festive feel. There was a group of 9 of us visiting today but nothing is a problem for staff at Amberley. We had the room to ourselves and were made to feel very welcome. Really enjoyed our visit today and it's easier to leave Granny there knowing that she is in the best hands of caring, loving staff. Can't rate this care home highly enough! Thanks to all staff at Amberley Lodge.

We had a lovely visit today. The staff are always so lovely and always give such a warm welcome. We came in a large group today so had our visit in a room which was set up with a festive backdrop and lots of fairy lights, which the kids loved. This is just one of the many times we have seen the staff at Amberley go over and above with different ideas for different occasions to treat the residents and keep them entertained. We were offered hot drinks and given biscuits too - nothing is ever too much and we always feel at ease, as everyone is always so accommodating. We are so lucky that our precious Grannie is in such great hands and cannot fault the care she receives in this lovely care home. Keep up the great work Amberley, we really appreciate everything that you do. You are all amazing and always go the extra mile.

Mum has been at Amberley Lodge now for well over a year. There have been some ups and downs but generally, things have been really great for her. During covid, the home was very honest and professional in their approach to informing families of the protocol. This meant we as a family could still see Mum from time to time. Mum, her weight has gained during her time here and due to the regular activities she is fairly sharp.
