Visiting
- The team value the importance of visitors in the lives of residents and fully support their right to maintain contact with family, friends, and loved ones. The visitors policy ensures that visits are welcomed, safe, and respectful of each resident’s personal wishes. Key points of the policy: Open Visiting: Visitors are welcome at any time, unless a resident personally requests limited visits or there is an outbreak of infection, in which case the home will follow health and safety guidance. Resident Choice: Each resident can decide who they want to see, and this choice will be recorded in their care plan. If a resident lacks the capacity to make this decision, the Mental Capacity Act will guide the process to ensure visits still support their best interests. Visitor Registration: All visitors must sign in and out at reception and follow any health and safety procedures in place. Privacy and Respect: Residents have the right to refuse visitors, and this will always be respected. Visitors will not be allowed into other residents’ rooms without express permission. Food and Personal Items: Any food or personal items brought in for a resident must be declared to staff to ensure safety and dietary needs are considered. Infection Control: Visitors who feel unwell, especially with symptoms of transmissible infections (such as flu, COVID-19, or norovirus), are asked to postpone their visit until they are well. Conflict and Safeguarding: If a visitor’s behaviour poses a risk to residents, staff, or the home environment, management will intervene. In serious cases, visits may be restricted or conditions imposed, with advice from the Safeguarding Team if necessary. Outbreak Management: In the event of a public health incident, the home will follow local and national guidance, offering alternatives like video calls or window visits if needed. Feedback and Complaints: Visitors are encouraged to provide feedback and raise any concerns, which will be handled through the Complaints, Suggestions and Compliments Policy. Our goal is to make every visit a positive, safe, and supportive experience for all.

My mum has been a resident at Badgers Lodge Nursing Home for the past five years, and I honestly cannot speak highly enough of the care and kindness she has received during her time there.
Badgers Lodge has created a genuinely caring and loving environment where my mum is treated with the same dignity, respect and compassion that we would hope for if she were being cared for by our own family. The staff go above and beyond every day to provide the level of care you would want for someone you love. Nothing ever seems too much trouble, and they take the time to understand my mum as an individual, recognising her personality, preferences and needs rather than simply seeing her as another resident.
The care is very much person-centred, with dignity and individuality at its heart. It is clear that the staff

Taz was in a very poor state when he came to Badgers Lodge, and in just 4 weeks he has gone back to being a cheeky chappie. The staff are wonderful and they fuss him and take really good care of him. My mind can now rest as he diabetes is now under control. I know he eats well and the medical staff have saved his left leg from amputation as h's leg was badly infected. His right leg was amputated and because of the care he receives he always smiling. Thank you.

It means a great deal to our whole team to know that he is feeling happier, more comfortable, and back to his "cheeky chappie" self.Your words about our staff are greatly appreciated. Providing attentive, compassionate care is at the heart of what we do, and we're especially pleased that Taz's diabetes is now well managed and that his overall health has improved. Supporting him through such a challenging time, including the care of his leg, has been a team effort, and we're so glad it has made a meaningful difference.
Just as importantly, it's wonderful to hear that you now have peace of mind. Knowing that families feel reassured and are confident in the care their loved ones receive is incredibly important to us.
Thank you again for your lovely comments-they will be shared with the team.
Warm regards,
Michelle

My sisters needs are met, and if I have any questions staff are always available to answer and discuss matters. Some things need to be repaired but in general things are kept in good condition. Food menu could be more varied, but I suppose on pureed diet it is not easy. My sister's room is quite small and we have to move her soft toys every time she uses the bed, but no space for shelves.
I appreciate your feedback and will take it on board.

Although lacking speech, he seems to have a rapport with his carers and gets plenty of positive attention.

He has been a resident of Badgers since it was opened and the current provider is of a high standard. We are kept informed of any problems. During a recent hospitalisation, Badgers staff were exemplary providing support for him and us, his parents. Facilities and food are of a high standard and my son is encouraged in many ways, including freedom to roam if he wants.
Staff are always welcoming when we visit. The administration of medication is very well organised in particular. Knowing that there is a fully qualified nurse on every shift is a comfort.
The new manager is doing an amazing job trying to turn things around. There is very little interaction with most of the residents.
I do believe they are understaffed and the most willing carers are pushed to the limit.

During my time at Badgers Lodge Care Home, I have received a lot of support from the staff and manager here. This home has a lot of facilities to provide for the service users, such as the sensory room, activity room and communal areas for all the residents. The home is very comfortable and has a lovely atmosphere to it. Activities are held for all the service users each day and they are treated with a high quality of care from staff. It is a safe and secure home for residents who live here with the use of a sign-in and out book and doors that remain locked.

I am immensely impressed with Badgers Care Home during the time I have spent here. The entrance is secure and staff check who you are before entering. The home is clean, tidy and well-kept throughout, with personalised belongings for each resident in bedrooms to make it feel homely. Staff are friendly and kind, interacting with each patient according to their needs and treating residents like extended family. Facilities include a large lounge, activities room, sensory room and large garden to enable all residents to be catered for holistically and therapeutically. There is no lack of equipment to enable comfortable care for residents, with wheelchairs, ceiling hoists and slings, electric adjustable beds and chairs for each individual. The food is homemade by the cooks with each individual dietary needs catered for, including soft and cultural diet needs. The care I have seen provided is safe, patient-centred and carried out in a timely and effective way.
