On a different note with the recent improvements I have seen at the home perhaps this will be done sooner than later. Finally, her son phones from the USA and the phone signal is very poor for that room IE cuts off.

We understand your concerns regarding your aunt's room dcor. Refurbishment plans are being reviewed as part of our ongoing improvement programme, and we recognise the importance of providing a comfortable and pleasant environment for all residents.

My mother has only been a resident for 2 weeks. She went into the home from the hospital for a 4-week assessment with the possibility of becoming a permanent resident. I only had a day to decide if Amber Lodge would be a good fit for my mum, so I had a short visit and was impressed by the staff and the amount of staff that I could see around. They all seem to genuinely want to look after the residents and seem to have a lot of patience with them. If there is one criticism, it would be that it's very dated inside, and would benefit from a bit of an uplift in decor and a bit of fresh paint.

We appreciate your feedback and look forward to continuing to support your mother during her stay with us.
My husband was placed at Amber Lodge in February 2026. I have found the staff to be very polite and caring and always happy to help. I do think it's a little out dated but that doesn't affect the quality of care given.

The new manager and deputy are a breath of fresh air and have made visible improvements at Amber Lodge. Communication is improving via email messages and updates now. Staff on the floor have always been brilliant with mum and continue to be fab with her. Unfortunately their brilliant activities coordinator recently left though so I am waiting to see what will happen in terms of enrichment.
Thank you for your feedback and for your kind words about our previous Activities Coordinator - she's a valued member of the team and will be greatly missed by residents and staff alike.

My mum has been a resident at Amber Lodge for over 3 years, in all of that time I have never felt any concerns for mums well being. The staff are very caring and efficient.

My mum has been a resident at Amber Lodge for 7 years. Before her dementia progressed, she loved interacting with staff and taking part in activities. I feel that my mum is very well taken care of, some staff go above and beyond. The new manager is a breath of fresh air. If I ever have any concerns, the manager deals with them quickly. Overall, I am very happy with the care my mum receives.

My wife has been a resident at Amber Lodge for the last 16 months, being cared for on a one to one basis. Due to her lack of cognition and poor vision, the staff and carers ensure she receives all the needs she requires. She was very active and walked a lot with assistance, but more recently spends a lot of time in her room, which is far more suitable than the temporary one she moved into for a few weeks. The staff and carers are friendly and competent, and ensure my wife has her meals, of which there is always a decent choice of food.
