My 89 year-old father entered Bury Lodge nearly 1 year ago with dementia and a broken hip. The care he's received over this time has been exemplary, all the staff care for each and every one of their residents as if they are their own family. They are kind, attentive and professional and no request is ever too much trouble. The home is very well managed, it's always spotlessly clean and the support services - social enrichment, catering, laundry and property maintenance are all delivered efficiently and at the highest standard. There is a really warm atmosphere in the home, laughter is never far away. Residents' relatives are always made to feel welcome and that they are a valued part of their loved-one's care team. Communication between the staff and family is excellent. We are very grateful for all that the staff do for my father and would recommend Bury Lodge without hesitation.
Thank you do much for taking time to share your thoughtful review. Your feedback means a lot to us and helps us continue to provide best care possible. We truly appreciate your support to our community at Bury Lodge.
The chef is also brilliant and my mum enjoys virtually every meal ( and she was a very fussy eater). The only reason I put my only good is that perhaps the menu could be a little more varied, particularly at tea time. There is a lot of soup!!!
I love going into see my mum - the atmosphere is always warm, welcoming and extremely jolly. I cannot recommend Bury Lodge Beaconsfield enough.
My husband's period of respite was very sucessful. All the staff were welcoming, friendly and helpful. He settled in well even though this was the first time in respite care. He was well cared for, plenty to do and the food was good. All in all an excellent place and I hope he will be able to have another period of respite there.
We were very happy with the respite care mm received at Bury Lodge. The staff were welcoming and friendly. There was plenty of food and drinks on offer.
I couldn't wish for a nice home for my mum. Mum loves the care that she receives and is always telling me how kind the staff are. It is always a pleasure to visit and I am always made to feel so welcome. The home is spotlessly clean. Any queries I have had are addressed promptly and efficiently. Thank you to all the lovely team, I'm grateful to each and every one of you and so is Mum.
Thank you so much for a heartfelt review regarding the care we provide to your Mum. It means a great deal to us to hear that you are satisfied with our services and that we are making a positive deference in her life.
A year later, she asked to return to Bury Lodge as she missed the staff and had felt settled there. She was welcomed back and instantly made to feel 'at home' again.
She found the continuity of care one of the most reassuring aspects of her residency.
Sadly she was very hard of hearing and had poor eyesight, so was unable to enjoy many of the activities, but loved going to the chapel each week and also enjoyed the book club.
She had very restricted mobility, and the staff took great care of her, treating her with kindness and patience.
We'd like to thank all the staff for their care. It was so reassuring to know that she was in safe hands until the end.
Thank you very much for your review, it was a pleasure to have your mother stay with us, we all learned a great deal with the stories she would tell us of her younger years.
My mum was a resident at Bury Lodge Care Home for two and a half years. We have always been very happy with the care she received there. It's a small care home in comparison to some of the larger ones I've seen, but this gave it a very personal feel. The care staff are all lovely and very caring and made my mum welcome from the very first day. They have a great range of activities organised for the residents by the activities team such as cooking club and a gardening club, which my mum absolutely loved. There are also day trips organised, plus other entertainment that would visit the home. My mum was always very happy and smiling whenever I visited her and never had any complaints. The admin and management team are very efficient and helpful. All of the staff did an amazing job in taking care of my mum. A big thank you to the whole team at Bury Lodge.
Thank you. We appreciate your kind words. it was always a pleasure to look after your mum.
Looked after my mum until her passing with great care and respect. She was very happy with the service she received at Bury Lodge. The staff were always very friendly and attentive. They also made the days after my mum passed as easy as possible for the family.
Many thanks for this review, K. it was always a pleasure interacting with you and looking after your mum.
My mother had been a resident in Bury Lodge for nearly five and a half years from a time when her health and mobility no longer allowed her to live alone in her own property. It was recognised she was in slow health decline. On November 5th, at the age of 94, she passed away, herself happy in the knowledge that her final days would be within Bury Lodge amongst safe and very caring hands. She felt amongst friends and had never complained about the care and attention she was given during her years at the home. As her son and living locally, my own family were permitted access at any time, and equally, none of the family had issues with Bury Lodge. It is always a concern when a loved one has to leave their normal place of living and recognise that a care home is a far better place to spend final years in the comfort of others in a similar situation and with assistance for mobility, activities and outings Bury Lodge was the right choice for my mother. The family would recommend it.
Many thanks for this wonderful review. It was always a pleasure interacting with you and looking after your mum.
This is a great and well-deserved advertisement for the Home. From the moment she arrived (only a few weeks before Covid came into our lives). Mum was made so welcome by all of the staff. During that very difficult period, the care and attention given to her were exemplary, and have continued to be so ever since. With its calm and friendly atmosphere, Bury Lodge is a wonderful environment for the elderly who are in need of some help and support.
It is reassuring to know that my Mum, at the age of 95, is so happy and content, and I can happily go away at times knowing that she is in such capable hands. Many thanks to the manager and all of the staff.
Many thanks Julie for this lovely feedback. We know your mum is super happy here and it's always a pleasure to care for her.
My elder brother is also a resident at Bury Lodge Care Home. He is registered blind and has Aspergers Syndrome so his needs are much greater than mine. He is well looked after by the resident staff but sometimes an agency staff member might not appreciate what needs to be done.
The rooms are well appointed and the garden is lovely. It is great to be able to grow vegetables for use in the kitchen.
There is a good range of activities and outings and The Hideaway is a delight to visit.
Many thanks for this lovely review. its always been a pleasure to care for both of you.
There was a lovely atmosphere and the staff, who were lovely, were happy to work as a team, supporting one another.
Thank you, Gail for this lovely feedback. This is really important to us as it boosts our confidence. Looking forward to having you again with us.
Bury Lodge looked after my mother extremely well during her recent stay when she was between house moves. They were very flexible, agreeing to her staying on beyond the original dates and even moved her to a more favourable room. She parked her car at the home, which gave her an increased sense of independence.
Thank you so much, for this review. We look forward to welcoming your mother again, at least as a visitor, if not as a resident.
My mother was a respite care resident at Bury Lodge for ten weeks while she recovered from a fall. The staff were all very friendly and nice and the care that Mum received was excellent. Her condition improved greatly during her time at Bury Lodge and I have no doubt that she would have become a permanent resident there, had it not been so far for the rest of the family to travel. Management and staff are excellent. Highly recommended.
It's always a pleasure to visit. The staff work so hard to ensure the residents are well cared for and happy. It's also spotlessly clean! Fantastic team. Well done.
Mum moved to Bury Lodge when a fall meant she needed respite care. She has dementia affecting her short-term memory, however, was managing to live alone with some help. The fall meant she couldn't do anything for herself, her broken wrist was in plaster. Whilst shocked and disorientated, she settled into life at Bury Lodge over three months, thanks to the diligence, kindness and professionalism of the team. As a family, we have noted how much better she is, than even before the fall. She is more cheerful and much brighter, with good food and plenty of social stimulation, clearly making a difference. The staff are all incredibly kind and respectful of the residents and the atmosphere is warm and relaxed. Importantly, the place is clean, well kept and a happy place to come to. Mum has decided now to stay in a home, although she is moving purely to be nearer family. Thank you, Bury Lodge team for all you have done for her and us!
My father was lucky enough to be a resident at Bury Lodge. The care he received was amazing and the staff, without exception, were professional, kind, and great fun too. Dad made many new friends amongst his fellow residents during his stay. Whenever we saw and spoke to him, he always had a tale to tell us about his day, usually funny! I am so sad he wasn't with you and us for longer, it was all too soon for us to say a final goodbye to him. He often told us how lucky he felt to be with you and we felt the same. Thank you all at Bury Lodge - you are wonderful people.
Thank you for this wonderful review. The staff too enjoyed your dad's company and he continues to be missed by one and all.
The Manager and staff team have done a fantastic job keeping residents safe and keeping up everyone’s spirits throughout the Covid pandemic. They have faced immense difficulties yet always have a positive attitude, and continue to be kind and caring. Both the Manager and have kept relatives really well informed throughout, which has been so reassuring.
I’m very impressed by the high quality of care I witness at Bury Lodge. There is a lovely atmosphere when I visit and it is apparent that Mum is very happy living there. Thank you to the Manager and staff team for doing a brilliant job.
Thank you so much for the kind words, Sue. It means a lot to us. We will continue to live up to your expectations.
Management has been extremely supportive (and pragmatic) with regards to visits during Covid - something that we and mum have really appreciated.
There has been quite a change of staff in the first year or two but this seems to have now stabilized and there are many familiar staff members which I believed helped with my mother's welfare.
Unfortunately, dementia has now really affected my dear mother and it is very hard to witness and accept but she always seems comfortable.
I would particularly like to mention three carers with who my mother does seem to have the most affinity with.
