Wood Hill Lodge

Lovely care home really sorted my friend out mentally. The reception has always been the best part, and I always felt so welcome and warm from the receptionist; she should have a promotion!!

My Dad become a resident in July 2025 due a lengthy stay across 3 hospitals. This left him unable to take care of himself at home so was placed at Wood Hill Lodge on an assessment bed and then on a more permanent basis. My Dad was made welcome straight away by staff members, had one to one to help him settle in. Staff & nurses are approachable, will answer any questions or queries you have and all staff say hello when they see you in the building. Dad does need support in washing & other personal care, medication etc but the support staff has rehabilitated him back to just about his normal self after the hospital left him incontinent & unable to feed & dress himself. He is now continent & can feed himself well. Dad has gained weight due to balanced meals throughout the day, he enjoys all food & plenty of snacks & drinks in between. There are plenty of onsite activities to keep Dad engaged when he chooses to take part. The manager Bose is also very approachable, her door is always open.

My father has been a resident at Wood Hill Lodge for almost 10 years. We have seen many changes of management and the current manager is by far the most responsive communication with relatives is improving. The staff are always kind, caring and treat everyone with respect. The entrance to the home has been refurnished yet the bedroom and lounge need some attention. Our family remain grateful to all the staff on Hollingworth who care for our dad. They are the best assets of Woodhill.

My husband has been in Woodhill Lodge nearly 1 year. I must say things have improved since he first came. He wouldn't participate in activities at first he does now which has made me happier. There does seem more things to do. Thank you.

My mum has been a resident at Woodhill Lodge for seven years, with health care needs that have been challenging at times. The staff have looked after her superbly, with kindness and dedication. They have welcomed us like friends and been partners with us in always doing the very best for my mum, treating her with as much love and respect as if she was one of their family. At any point of change, decision making or health concern, the staff have always kept us fully informed, sought our views and respected our thoughts. They also regularly seek feedback and consistently focus on improvement. Knowing how conscientious and caring the staff are has given us a real peace of mind. I feel lucky that my mum was cared for by Woodhill Lodge's staff- she has been in the care of some very special people and I will always be grateful for all they did for her and for me. Thank you.

My mother in law has been in Wood Hill Lodge for over five years. During this time the staff and management have been super supportive to both my mother in law and to us as a family. It is a safe and friendly environment we feel the team around her are part of our extended family - thank you!

My father has been in this home for seven years now. There have been many changes of staff and management, apart from his number one carer. I cannot fault the care my dad receives from management down the scale, he's given nothing but respect, patience, and love. As a family we feel privileged to be a part of Wood Hill Lodge. We know he wouldn't receive this level of professionalism and care anywhere else and are so lucky he is a resident.

Wood Hill Lodge is a lovely place! The carers are thoughtful and kind as are the nursing staff. Over the last two months, the activity manager has done a wonderful job. The office staff are so pleasant and helpful, as is the manager. My stepfather likes living here, calls it home and wants to stay! The only drawback is a lack of garden/space to sit etc.

Caring for my father, particularly in these difficult times, is a challenge. The staff of Wood Hill Lodge have risen to the challenge at all levels and the care and dedication they provide is excellent. I know he is safe and well looked after.

My son is a resident at Woodhill Lodge and has been since February 2019. The staff are wonderful, and my son's care has been nothing short of excellent. The recent outbreak of Coronovirous must have been extremely difficult for all the staff, but I have nothing but praise for the manager and all her staff in keeping the family informed of the ongoing situation. I give my grateful thanks to them all; for caring for my son.
