My father in law moved to Chatsworth Lodge a year ago after a batch of ill health. He is not able to move around on his own anymore so living here has given him the constant safety and security he now needs with care staff on hand to attend to his needs including personal hygiene and washing clothes. The day accommodation is warm, bright and airy. He is not able to join in with some of the entertainment arranged but the TV areas and hustle and bustle of activities help to create a homely (not alone) feel. Meals are regular, ample and well presented. Night time accommodation is comfortable with many additional safety features introduced to counteract his nocturnal activities as he has the propensity to fall out of bed. The home reliably manages prescribed drugs and ensures medical attention is provided. It has given me peace of mind knowing he is in a place of safety during this difficult time of his life.

Staff are generally friendly and helpful. My uncle is not a fan of loud TVs having reasonable hearing himself. Also, not a fan of group activities although I can see the benefit amongst other residents.

Mum is clean and very well cared for. Residency always smells fresh and clean food is tasty, nourishing, well presented and the homemade cakes, soups delicious sandwiches etc. Visitors invited to eat with residents, I love the various areas encouraging interaction with others. All tastefully decorated. Mum says "I love the staff and they love me" I can see why she says that as from the management, carers and kitchen staff are wonderful.

When entering the home, I was greeted by the manager, who gave me a real warm welcome and was able to answer any questions I had about my relative.
The home is wonderful and offers a home from home experience and would recommend to anyone.
Absolutely fabulous.

The team provided my father with excellent care - given with a personal touch. He was treated as a true individual. The staff always has time to chat with him and treated him with dignity and respect.

My father went into Chatsworth Lodge for a weeks respite and I cannot praise them enough. They were brilliant. The staff are happy and smiley talking to the residents and making sure they are Ok at all times. The place is clean, no old people home smells and good home cooked meals. Dad does not like going away from home but I need a break now and then. He liked it there and is keen to go in again which says a lot. The manager is busy but always has time for you, she is a credit to Chatsworth Lodge. Thank you to all the staff, they are wonderful.
It is lovely to hear such positive words about our home.
I am so glad that your father enjoyed his time here, and that you were happy with the care he received.
Our staff do work hard to maintain a high standard of care, it is great to know that this is noted.
Thank you again.
Kind regards.
I think Chatsworth Lodge is a lovely, warm and wonderful home where they look after my mum and make sure all her needs are catered for and she is treated with dignity and respect.

I’m an experienced Home Manager with over 14 years in the health and social care sector. I’m passionate about providing outstanding, person-centred care for older people, particularly those living with dementia. I believe every resident has a unique story, and I’m committed to ensuring the care they receive reflects their wishes, dignity and individuality. My focus is on creating a warm, welcoming home where residents thrive, families feel reassured, and colleagues are empowered to deliver compassionate, high-quality care every day.

I am a dedicated Deputy Manager at Chatsworth Lodge with a strong passion for delivering high-quality, compassionate, and person-centred care. My journey into social care began with an ambition to pursue midwifery, which sparked my commitment to supporting others and making a meaningful difference in people’s lives.
Starting my career as a Care Assistant, I have progressed into a management role, gaining valuable experience in leadership, team development, and delivering outstanding care standards. I am committed to creating a supportive environment for both residents and staff, ensuring dignity, respect, and kindness are at the heart of everything we do.
As a mother of five, I bring empathy, patience, and strong family values into my professional life. I understand the importance of building trust, nurturing relationships, and treating every individual with the same compassion I would expect for my own family.
Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my family, particularly exploring the Peak District. I am also passionate about fundraising and personal challenges to support meaningful causes. I have completed a skydive to raise awareness for brain injury and aim to take on a wing walk in the future to continue making a difference.
