Lynde House is a quality care home with dedicated staff who strive to give the residents the care they need. Facilities are good with attention to detail e.g. proper table cloths in the dining room. My wife has rapidly developed Alzheimer's, we moved her to a home near our daughter. She is now in a dedicated unit for dementia sufferers which Lynde House lacks. Her room now has a shower in her room, another thing that Lynde Hose lacks.
My mother spent her final 5 years at Lynde House and was treated with love and kindness. She was calm and relaxed there and appreciated the affection given to her by staff and loved her beautiful surroundings.

Thank you very much for your taking the time to leave a review for our home. We are so glad you enjoyed your stay and hope to see you in the future should you need some more respite care or to just pop in for some lunch!
I can't rate the support highly enough. My mother has been really well looked after by well-trained, compassionate and dedicated staff. It's like a 5 star hotel with care!
Fabulous, thank you!

The room is good, although the bed takes a bit of getting used to. I do not like a duvet.
Food varies, presumably according to the chef.

I have come to stay in Lynde House for a period of respite while I undergo hospital treatment. The staff are all friendly and have taken the trouble to try and accommodate my needs as I come and go. Meals are generally very good, with the odd exception. The nursing staff have been available for advice if needed. I have observed that sometimes the residents have to wait longer to be helped to the toilet than is comfortable for them, mainly around meal times when carers are employed to serve meals, clean up meals and feed needy residents, so are stretched thin. Perhaps other staff could be responsible for that. The laundry is very efficient. Overall, a good experience.
I am so pleased that your experience here at Lynde House was a good one, and hope, if you need care again, that you will return here to Lynde House.
All the staff were very respectful and helpful in bringing the residents to the sitting room for the monthly church service, organised by the local church of England church. I had the opportunity to chat with many residents who were happy to be cared for at this him and attended this service...

My uncle is one of the residents of your home. We are very lucky to have found this home. I can't thank all the staff enough for looking after my uncle and our family, especially his wife; they have done above and beyond for my uncle and the family. The cleanliness is something else. We can't praise Lynde House enough for all that they have done for my uncle and for supporting my auntie (his wife).
Thank you so much for your lovely comments. I will ensure they are shared with the team. Much appreciated.

I must admit that I was very nervous coming from hospital as I had no idea what to expect. I need not have worried at all as I was met with only kindness in beautiful immaculate surroundings. Thank you.

As the Registered Manager, I am responsible for the overall running of Lynde House and assisted in this by a great team of staff.
Although from Scotland, I have lived in Richmond for over 30 years. My career has been in two stages; hospital management where I spent almost 26 years working in acute hospitals including Kingston and the West Middlesex Hospitals and Care Home Management at Lynde House where I have been since 2011.
I have had a long interest and involvement in organising and providing services to older people and I have been fortunate enough to put my experience to good use at Lynde House where we continue to strive for improvement in everything we offer and provide for our residents. We consistently achieve great feedback from residents and relatives on the care and services offered, a significant aspect to this being our low staff turnover and the lovely environment both inside the home itself and the grounds in which it is situated.
