My wife and I came to look round to see if the home was suitable for my mam, age 93. We were immediately struck how friendly ALL the staff were who, without exception, looked up from what they were doing to say hello or say a few words. My mam, for the first week to ten days, was a bit bewildered...
Sadly she only had about 12 weeks in the home before she passed away having received excellent end of life care. I am extremely grateful to everyone at this nursing home for their professional care of my mam. I couldn't have asked for better. Thank you.

After having had an awful experience at a previous care home we arrived at Castleford Lodge with apprehension. However, from our arrival with my father, it was extremely obvious that this home was a happy and lively place to be. We were greeted with friendly faces who made us feel welcome and my dad put at ease. The staff at this home are second to none. We are confident that my dad is well cared for and has the stimulation he needs. Thank you.
Thank you for leaving such a lovely review. I’m delighted to hear we have changed your experience of care homes and that staff are friendly and welcoming. Kind regards, Janet Bedworth, Care Home Manager.

Just wanted to say a few words about the staff at Castleford Lodge and the loving care which has and is being provided to my Mother since she arrived.
Special thanks to the management and staff who have been outstanding in every way showing compassion, loving care and the utmost dignity to my mother.
I cannot commend you enough, you have been amazing and I am confident that my mother’s remaining time with you as loving and comfortable as now. Thank you so much, ladies, from the bottom of my heart.

Nursing, care and domiciliary staff are very caring and supportive towards residents and their families. Activities occur regularly and are well organised and enjoyed by many residents. Food could sometimes be better, vegetables are often underlooked and pastry is too thick and tough.

Everyone, carers, staff, nurses, gave me a lot of support.
Took me to the bedroom which was under decoration, which I liked.
My sister was accepted and arrived August 15th, 2017.
Yes, we have had issues, some which could have been avoided.
It's like anything else, you get good staff and bad. Bank staff let the home down. They do not know the residents and come over less caring.
My sister has settled and since August last year 2017, I feel the home has come on 100%, everyone trying hard.
Still, a long way to go but I hope I'm right saying we will get there if everyone pulls together, lots to be learned.
They are our loved ones!

Castleford Lodge Care Home staff have been a relationship restorer for our family. We were at rock bottom with no ideas on how to manage our very sad situation. My dad was offered respite that went wrong, then Castleford Lodge Care Home offered him a place. We as a family have moved forward with the help and understanding of the staff. My dad is comfortably looked after and healthy in himself. What more could we want? Much more but the situation is what it is.
Many thanks for your feedback in regards to Castleford Lodge. We are very pleased to hear that you have moved forward thanks to the help of our staff following the issues you faced. I am glad your dad is happy and healthy now he is a resident at Castleford Lodge. Kind regards
