Mum needed urgent respite care following a sudden progression of her dementia. Mum was the first resident to arrive on the first day of Goodson Lodge Care Centre opening and was greeted at the threshold. The accommodation is beautiful and carefully well thought out for providing the very best of care. All of the staff were very welcoming and helpful. On my request staff managed to provide mum with a bath and hair wash which was much appreciated. Because of the urgency mum's admission, we were not aware of the need to label clothing which obviously contributed towards the difficulty of washing clothes, but on request, these were immediately taken for washing once I had sorted them out. A more efficient method of entrance at the weekends would be useful.

This report is provided at the end of the first week of residence. The warmth of the welcome was very appreciated. The interaction between the resident and the staff and other residents is much in evidence which is a very good feature. The individualised care is noticeable. All staff have been helpful and attentive. We are delighted that our relative has settled in Goodson Lodge so easily. The food and drink is good and occasional egg and bacon at breakfast would be excellent with her.
