  • Mill Lane Nursing and Residential Home, Felixstowe
Mill Lane Nursing Home is located in Felixstowe's Old Town and is convenient for local amenities and shops. The home provides regular trips for residents in the home's minibus to the local theatre, on shopping trips or to benefit from the fresh sea air of the nearby coastline. Peace and tranquillity are also on offer in the well maintained gardens that surround the Home - a perfect haven from the bustle of the town.

The home, once a local doctor's surgery, has been sympathetically extended and now provides a selection of welcoming reception rooms with attractive patio areas. Mill Lane offers specialised nursing care for the elderly and has an enviable reputation in the local community for its high quality care. Bedrooms are fully furnished, however, residents are encouraged to to bring with them items of furniture and personal effects to complement those already provided so that their room can become an individual retreat.

Care staff are trained to the highest standards and chosen not only for their skills but also for their warmth, friendliness and caring attitude. Staff are constantly available and provide professional care that respects the rights and dignity of the individual.

Residents are regularly assessed to ensure their needs are met. Appointments can be arranged with a visiting optician, dentist, and chiropodist. Mill Lane has an in-house hairdressing salon that provides all the usual services plus manicures and hand massages. Catering staff provide delicious meals and snacks throughout the day, with special diets being catered for.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I cannot rate Mill Lane Nursing Home and its whole team highly enough for the expert care, kindness and compassion shown to my Dad and our family. The manager and her team worked so hard in giving my Dad the best experience we all could have wished for, and for that we will be forever grateful. Some
of the things Dad particularly enjoyed were the accessible garden, the great food and the freedom to make his own choices in terms of social interactions and mobility. Dad had a small room on the ground floor close to the nurses office and although some of the furnishings were a little tired, the cleanliness and access to specialist equipment to support dad and monitor his safety was faultless. I never felt that anything was too much trouble and all the staff have been consistent in their respect and care. I would have no hesitation in recommending Mill lane to families needing to entrust their loved one into full time care.
Reply from Jane Galloway, Home Manager at Mill Lane Nursing and Residential Home

Thank you for your lovely review recognising the amazing work that the team at Mill Lane do to enrich the residents' care journey. It was the greatest honour to have your dad live with us at Mill Lane, and he brightened the day of everyone he met.

I came to Mill Lane nursing home for some convalescent care after neck surgery..
The overall care given here is marvellous at all levels.
The staff are respectful and I'm treated with dignity. They have been empathetic and mindful of my needs.
Cleanliness is good, rooms are cleaned daily and the
home is pleasant smelling.
Food is outstanding: delicious, all meals served are to a high standard with good choices available.
For dementia patients the security is commendable.
I have observed great care given
from all the pleasant and friendly staff. Nothing is too much trouble and staff have gone the extra mile to help and encourage me.
Rooms are variable in size, most with toilet and hand basin. Shower and bath facilities nearby. All necessary furniture is provided, my bed is hospital type.
The manager and deputy manager are extremely approachable, friendly and supportive.
It's good to know that a nurse is always on duty.
I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Mill Lane Nursing home.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
No comments apart from lack of sufficient staff on the night shift 8 pm to 8 am. If they employ just one extra carer part-time from 8 pm to midnight, then my wife wouldn't be left either sitting on a full bed pan for two hours or left to sit in her own mess for two hours. She is only 52 and has full
mental capacity but the carers, all two of them like to systematically check all 27 residents in order. I have been told not to interfere but it is hell, my wife's bottom is very sore.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. I want to reassure you that my door is always open to you and all family members, as maintaining an open line of communication is very important to me. Your wife's comfort and dignity are our top priorities, and I look forward to talking further with you at our scheduled meeting.

Review from Joanne D (Daughter-in-law of Resident) published on 21 May 2024 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother-in-law has been here for 4 months now and we continue to be extremely satisfied with the care and support provided. We are so relieved that we no longer have to worry about her. We visit regularly and have never seen anything other than pleasant and professional attitudes, towards all the
residents. Our loved one is clean and tidy at all times and should you see a member of staff sitting down, it is because they are interacting with a resident. My mother-in-law can have challenging behaviour which has been minimised through the caring attitude she receives.
Reply from Suzanne Brindley, Home Manager at Mill Lane Nursing and Residential Home

Thank you, Joanne. Having your mother-in-law here has been our privilege and your comments will be passed to the team. It means so much to them to know their hard work is noticed.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Mum would have benefited from an ensuite but one was not available. The room required the bed against the wall and had to be moved each time to aid moving Mum. All staff were good and most excellent. Only problem was differing opinions on how often Mum's wound dressing needed to be done, daily or as
necessary (it didn't smell and was shrinking so wasn't too bad) I am an RMN and RGN, I think the staff guessed this. I last worked as a nurse educator in a graduate program in Australia. I understand all the arguments regarding comfort/choice/distress etc but it was difficult for my mother, her partner and my brother to understand. The staff all cared and that shone through, special mention to the lady who handled decision-making at weekends beautifully and appropriately. Fantastic GP who understands end-of-life care and its realities. A lovely safe place to spend final days.
Reply from Suzanne Brindley, Home Manager at Mill Lane Nursing and Residential Home

Thank you for your kind comments these will be passed on to the team. The wound was to be dressed as needed and this was recorded on our Kare system. We are so glad you see us as a lovely safe place.

My mother received a wonderful welcome here from staff and they asked all about her preferences. Everywhere are smiling faces and willing responses. She has been treated with dignity and gentleness and her challenging behaviour met with a creative and kind response. We, her family, have been welcomed
and shown where we can help ourselves and our mother to coffee, refreshments etc. The management engages in a can-do attitude here.

Mum was very reluctant to leave her home and was determined not to settle. The staff went above and beyond to make her feel welcome and cared for. She was soon joining in every day with the excellent activities. Visitors were always welcomed and could eat with Mum as well. As mum health deteriorated
the care received by the nurses and carers was outstanding. Would highly recommend.

My husband has recently joined the nursing home and I have been impressed with the staff and facilities in the home.
All staff have made my husband feel welcome and when I visit, my husband is in clean clothes and looks cared for. If we need any help the staff are always on hand. The manager of the
home has been very supportive with my husband going into the home and she has also been supportive to me and our family.

Since my dad moved into Mill Lane I have been happy with the care he has recieved. I had concerns about how well he would be cared for before he moved in but all these have been put to rest. The only negative feedback I have is regarding the laundry. Even though all his clothing has been labelled, we
often find his drawers and wardrobe empty and have found him in clothes that aren't his on a few occasions.

The facilities within any nursing home are important but what really makes an excellent home is the staff and their commitment, care and love they show towards each resident.
During Mum's year, we were able to observe this first-hand. The activity coordinators truly care and show love and respect for
each resident. They know each one so well to support their needs. They made Mum's life really happy and that made us so happy too.
There are also others who quietly work to support the running of the home but make a huge difference. Thank you to the handyman who always manages to sort out problems promptly. The gardener, who keeps the grounds looking lovely - so important when sitting out in the sunshine. The visiting keyboard lady who encourages lots of singing and fun. The mini-bus driver, allowing external visits. There have been some amazing carers too who treated Mum like their own family - thank you. Keep up the good work - you really make a difference!

My aunt was transferred to Mill Lane two months ago from another care home which had closed down. The facilities and ambience of Mill Lane are much better than the other care home. We are very pleased with her care and new surroundings. In particular, the staff create a very warm and homely atmosphere
which is a credit to themselves and the management of the home.

My husband was at Mill Lane Nursing and Residential Home for about two months before he passed away. The care he received was outstanding. We were permitted to visit at any time for as long as we liked. The staff were very friendly, knowledgeable and caring. We were always kept notified of any health
issues and the progression of my husband's condition. As his needs increased they were always one step ahead and ready for what he needed next. In his last few hours, the staff were exceptional.

Current Review Score: 9.5 (9.505)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.505) out of 10 for Mill Lane Nursing and Residential Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.5 out of 5 from 17 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 17 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Care Home is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.505 for Mill Lane Nursing and Residential Home is calculated as follows: ( (115 Excellents x 5) + (70 Goods x 4) + (11 Satisfactorys x 3) + (2 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 198 Ratings = 4.505
  2. 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5'). The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Mill Lane Nursing and Residential Home is based on 17 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4
    2. 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the registered maximum number of service users in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Care Home registered for a maximum of 50 service users has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 30 registered maximum number of service users is 6, which has been reached with 17 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
