Overall Experience

My mother suffered with Alzheimer's and could no longer cope, living at home with care visits. She moved into Alpine Lodge, and was immediately made to feel welcome and comfortable.
Her care has been exemplary. Daily care was tremendous and the activities were a really brought a smile to her face

albeit fleetingly.
Sadly, she passed earlier this week. The staff were fabulous and carried out her wishes with regard to end of life care.
I can wholeheartedly recommend Alpine Lodge. Thank you for caring.

Overall Experience

Thank you to all the wonderful staff at Alpine Lodge. He was end of life when he arrived, we chose them because of the wonderful care my dad had received in earlier years. Again nothing had changed the care and love he received from the staff was second to none. The meals were first class and great

care and personal choice nothing was unavailable. A special thank you to the nursing staff who made him comfortable in his final days. He was very comfortable and peaceful which was wonderfully reassuring when we really needed them.

Overall Experience

When I was informed that my father-in-law was being transferred from the hospital to Alpine Lodge I was very dismissal. But to be honest it was the best thing that could have happened to him, he came on leaps and bounds and I cannot thank the staff enough for the care and affection provided. Every member

of staff is very courteous professional, overall genuinely caring. I am sorry that he had to be relocated due to distance from home and family. Once again thank you from the whole family.

Reply from Jackie Brook, Customer Relationships at Alpine Lodge

We completely understand the challenges that come with distance from home and family, and we're sorry to see him go. Please know that your gratitude means the world to us, and we wish your father-in-law all the best in his new location. Thank you again from all of us at Alpine Lodge

I am over here from Canada, visiting my mum who has been here for about a year. I have spent over 2 weeks with her at the home all day so have seen the care Mum receives. Carers, kitchen staff, cleaners, and laundry staff have been so kind to both Mum and me during my stay. I cannot say enough good

things about them.

Review from Shirley G (Daughter-in-law of Resident) published on 9 October 2023 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

I left a 5 star review when my mother in law first entered Alpine Lodge. However, I wish to change my star rating to 2 as although the building is really nice, we have found the level of care/service to be lacking, especially at weekends. In my opinion, they are seriously understaffed.

Reply from Dolores Pooley, Regional Manager at Alpine Lodge

Thank you for sharing your concerns about the staffing levels on weekends. I want to assure you that our service uses a dependency tool as a guide for staffing, but we always staff above the recommended levels. If a staff member calls in sick and we cannot cover with our own team, we have a plan to use a local agency to ensure that our staffing remains safe at all times.

We understand that when you visit our building on weekends, the manager and administrator may not be present. We apologise if this has made you feel neglected. We value your feedback and assure you that we take it seriously. Thank you for sharing your comments with us.

When asked which care home Dad would like to go into, he said Alpine Lodge.
My father is in his late 80s, but on the day of going to Alpine, he did;t want to go, but when he got there, all staff were brilliant with him. He had not been eating meals at home but eating everything there. He enjoyed all

the chats with the staff. Bedrooms are very spacious, bright and well-decorated.

Review from Kay A (Daughter of Resident) published on 13 April 2023 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

Mum was in Alpine Lodge for just a few short weeks after transferring from a Nursing Home in Sheffield. The difference between the two homes has restored my faith in human nature. The home is bright, clean and welcoming and the staff are amazing. They actually care about the residents. Mum was shown

care, understanding, friendship, compassion and respect and was treated with dignity and gentleness. The food looked delicious and nutritious and if Mum didn't feel like eating staff always found something to tempt her with. Whenever we visited everyone was welcoming and friendly and made time to fill us in on Mum's progress. I would highly recommend Alpine Lodge for anyone looking for a safe and loving place for their elderly relative.
