From my phone call early morning to our delayed visit, we were very impressed with the courteous/pleasant and accommodating approach. The attitude of the staff we met was excellent. The lady who answered the phone in the morning and possibly the same person the receptionist who we met on our arrival was very impressive. Additionally, various other staff we saw on our visit were presented with many challenging demands. The response I observed was professional but in a manner that showed lovely empathy.
I felt really welcome. Observing other interactions Woodlands Lodge is obviously a very kind, patient, caring community in what I imagine is and has been a very difficult/challenging environment with Covid-19.
Circumstances during Lockdown meant my visit access was limited to the reception area.
Thank you so much.

Relative has been resident for 15 months, and is settled. New manager seems to have her 'finger on the pulse' so feel confident the home will continue to develop.

Thank you very much for your review. We are pleased that you are happy with the care that we deliver at the Woodlands.
I found the home very welcoming on my arrival. The care is excellent. The only negative comment would be the lack of continuity of a regular chef and the mixed meals received as a result.

Mum is a joy to look after and never fails to make us chuckle. She is truly a remarkable lady. I will pass on these comments to all the staff
We were delighted to be offered a ground floor garden facing room so soon after looking around Woodlands Lodge. Mum has settled in very well and all the staff without exception are kind and caring. As mum is nearly 102 we do not expect her to partake in many activities.

It is always pleasing to hear when a resident has settled and made Woodlands their new home. I will, of course, pass on to care staff these positive comments
The improvement in my aunt's condition and morale after 8 weeks respite care has been incredible.
No surprise then that she has decided to make Woodlands Lodge her permanent home.

It is a pleasure to care for your aunt here at Woodlands Lodge, she is an adorable lady who has made friends with everyone and joins in all the activities that take place. She is always ready for a cuppa and a chat, and it is lovely to see her smiling face first thing in the morning when she is ready to take on the adventures of the day.
Consistency across all members of staff in high standards of care and commitment, responsiveness to individual needs. Excellent atmosphere. Aesthetically pleasing ambience.

She loved it, at that time she was still living at home.
When her (private) carers arrived later that day, she told her how lovely Woodlands is. She is now a full-time resident, the family are so relieved she is now receiving 24/7 care. The staff are absolutely dedicated and we couldn't wish for better care.

They have strong relationships with all the local health professionals and are very responsive and caring in the few emergency situations we have had with mum falling.
The facilities are first class, modern and spotlessly clean. The standard of food and catering is very good.
I will pass comments on to staff and chefs will be pleased to hear your comments regards the meals provided.
My mother-in-law was admitted to hospital following a fall at home. We made the decision to move her to Woodlands Lodge because we felt she would have a better chance of rehabilitation there. From the outset, the staff were positive and encouraging and I do believe they would have succeeded in...
They treated her with respect, dignity and gentleness during her last days and supported us as a family.
Thank You.
Thank you for your response, it is always good for us to have feedback so we can see where we excel, and where we need to improve or make adjustments. It was an absolute pleasure to have looked after your mother-in-law.
