Anne has been at Woodlands care home for a little over a year.
She is very well looked after, the rooms are comfortable and well equipped, following a refurbishment the lounge and other areas are very comfortable places to be outside space in the garden for when the Sun shines
The staff who look after the residents of Woodlands are like an extension of our family as they care for her as I would wish to care for her myself,
When you visit, which I do regularly, the staff keep me updated on what has been happening since my previous visit.
I recently asked one of the senior staff if I could go down to the kitchen to get a drink of juice for Anne, the reply was of course you can, this is your home too.

Simply put, Woodlands Lodge Formby is an outstanding place. All the staff and the whole place is/are superb. During my search for a care home, as soon as I walked into Woodlands Lodge, I just knew that this was the place. The feeling was reinforced when I met the staff. The words professional, caring, happy, safe, secure, clean, compassionate, and affectionate are just, but a few to describe the place and staff. My elder mum loves Woodlands Lodge, and we are reassured and content that she is in a great place.
Thankyou for taking the time to send such a lovely review. Its a pleasure to look after your Mum. She is such a big part of our Woodlands Family.
What a wonderful place, the staff here are absolutely fantastic, they go above and beyond. My dad's care is wonderful; he is so well cared for. The activities are getting better and better when we come to see my dad, he is so smart and looks so happy and relaxed.

Such a lovely review, thankyou for taking the time to submit. Your feedback means a lot to us at Woodlands.
We love Woodlands Lodge, but it's a big but, we need entertainment staff; it's too much for Yvonne. The staff are lovely, can't do enough for my dad.

This my third experience at Woodlands Lodge. The first was to visit my wife here, where she resided for over twelve months. My second visit was for myself when i stayed for respite for over three months following an injury, staff and systems - including the food - were excellent. I was able to...
I am current on a third stay is for respite care following an op at Hospital. Again, all staff and systems are top-notch. It says a great deal about a place of employment that many staff have been here since my wife's stay began in 2022. A great home and I would highly recommend Woodlands Lodge.
Mum has been a resident at Woodlands now for over 12 months. It is the most welcoming and friendly care home to both residents and their families making it feel like home for us all. Having the additional garden room facilities has been an absolute bonus to us as we are able to move straight...
Standards are extremely high in all areas from care and cleanliness to the extensive and beautifully prepared meal options.
Events team are brilliant and entertain residents & family with their daily activities plan.
The hair salon is a huge bonus with weekly hairdressing appt a definite highlight of the week.
Staff retention is extremely high underlining how happy and safe Woodlands is for all who spend time here.
Thrilled it just happens to be close to home allowing daily visits when possible yet be confident of the excellent care mum will receive when we cannot get there.
Woodlands: the perfect place with excellent facilities & staff!
I am thrilled to hear how welcome you and the family feel here at Woodlands. It is a pleasure to care for your Mum, and lovely to see you all here on such a regular basis. Thank you for the kind words, which I will pass on to the team.

My wife went into Woodlands Lodge in 2021 towards the end of Covid Outbreak. I was scared my wife (because of her condition) was not aware of the situation. She was content with everything that was provided.The staff put us both at ease and have always been so caring and kind to us both. My wife is never agitated, and is always smiling and chuckling. I am more at ease because I know she is being looked after so well.
Thank you so much for your kind words. We are truly honoured to be caring for your wife and are delighted to hear that both she and you feel supported. We pride ourselves on our providing a warm, family environment for our residents and their families. I will share your kind comments with all the team.

Mum was admitted to Woodlands after a fall when she was exhausted, distressed and in severe pain. From day 1, the manager and staff welcomed her warmly and reassured her. Her pain was quickly managed and in a short time, thanks to the care and attention of staff, she began to thrive. 'Respite' has now become 'permanent'. Mum is very happy. An excellent care home - and welcoming to visitors!
My aunty is looked after by amazing staff and cared for and supported 24hrs a day for all her needs. She is treated with dignity and love. Her needs are met with her eating requirements. She enjoys the activities and singing. We know she is cared for and safe.

My husband has been a resident at Woodlands Lodge for almost 4 years. From day one, we have experienced excellent service on every level. I visit my husband every day at various times during the day, including late into the evening, so I see all the staff during that time. The quality of care and support is consistently excellent at all times. I am delighted with the staff and facilities. I couldn't wish for my husband to be in a better place.
He has put weight on, improved mentally, attends all activities and is now interested in what is going on around him.
He loves it here.

The home is very friendly, and the staff are very good with my aunt - she particularly likes her visits off a particular staff member. She has settled in very well and likes her garden room.

My cousin entered Woodlands Residential Home after a long period in hospital. She took a long time to adjust from leaving her home. She refused to eat in the dining room and preferred to stay in her room. I must praise the staff for their patience and consideration of her needs. Now my cousin is joining in some activities and eating in the dining room. The staff appreciate her need to have quiet time on her own. The house is always immaculately clean and my cousin is always looked after well. I am very satisfied with the care she receives.
