A real homely atmosphere and feeling from day 1. The staff could not have been more attentive, so professional, a credit to the care home. Plenty to do with regular activities. I would recommend to anyone thinking of living at Woodthorpe

My mum came into Woodthorpe Lodge initially as a respite user because she was unable to cope at home. It was a big change for her, but all of the staff are so kind and made her feel very welcome and encourage her to join in the activities and to socialise. There is a choice of meals on the menu...
Every member of staff is considerate to each individual resident's needs, something mum has benefitted from.
When it came time to leave, she decided to stay and become a resident here because she feels safe and valued.
Thank you Woodthorpe Lodge

On a few occasions, my father was not appropriately dressed for the weather and unshaven/showered. His room was often untidy but when discussed with carer this was immediately remidied. The point I am making is that this should have been noticed and sorted without intervention from...
Residents are treated well but in my experience abilities of residents are over estimated. Understand their dignity is important but this is often given too much consideration for those who are less able to make their own decisions,

We have been very pleased with how my mum has settled making friends and feeling well supported by the staff. She enjoys the food and her room overall is exactly right for her. She gets stimulation from all the events and the interaction with other residents. We are pleased that someone takes her...
We think that a regular diarised health review would be very helpful.
We are surprised that staff do not regularly monitor her blood pressure given that she has dizzy spells and is a 'fainter'.
The clothing situation is exasperating when items go missing for prolonged periods.
Washing instructions appear to be considered optional resulting in woolen items returning shrunk and misshapen.
You could explore the possibility of using an spiritual care to come in and speak with residents.
She needs reminding about events that
are scheduled otherwise she just misses them which is a shame.
Thank you for your lovely feedback. We're delighted to hear that your mum has settled so well, is enjoying her room, the food, activities, and has made friends. We're also pleased she is able to attend church, as we know how important this is to her.

had been ask to go to bed . Also for them to be included in outings even if in a wheelchair. Some times if you say let's go here they are more willing than if given a choice ( I know your not aloud to force but some residents will just say no because its easier. This is not forcing it's encouraging)
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts.

My father came to Woodthorpe Lodge when he was 90, with quite advanced dementia. He quickly settled in, no doubt due to the care and re-assurance of all the staff. I have visited on many occasions, and have never heard anyone, resident, carer or associated professional, say anything bad about the home. Other residents have told me 'its the best home in the world' and a district nurse, visiting my dad said 'if I need to go into care I want to come here'.
Your kind comments mean a great deal to us, and we will be sure to share your feedback with the staff team here at Woodthorpe Lodge

"Kind care means treating and helping someone with gentleness, compassion, and respect. It is about not only meeting their needs but also showing warmth and understanding. Kind care makes people feel valued, safe, and supported."

Kind care is showing compassion, giving time and attention to help others. Kind care is contributing positively to improving the lives of others.

To me, kind care means slow down listen and really engage. Just remember that the person in front of you is someone's Mum, Dad, or Grandparent. Always have it in the back of your mind that it could be your loved one - or even you!
