My family would like to take this opportunity to express our heartfelt gratitude to all staff for the kindness, care and compassion that was given to our dear mum.
She was only with you for a relatively short period of her long life of 95 years but you all helped her to initially accept that she was
safer in a care home setting and then you all did everything you could to make her comfortable and as happy as possible.
We cannot name you all but we would like to highlight the roles within the home: nurses, carers, activity, cleaning, housekeeping, laundry, kitchen and handyman that all played a significant part in looking after mum. We know she enjoyed many a chat with you all about her past life and travels.
We would also like to thank the staff for the respectful and dignified way that they cared for mum and ourselves in her last three days.

We moved our father to the Lodge because he needs nursing care. His dementia is too advanced for a full-time live in carer. He has been there for 8 months. He settled quickly and I was encouraged to do whatever I wanted to support him - which was visit frequently. They are very caring and very
client-centred. They take the view that this is his home and he should be free to move about as he wants. If there is an issue - they look for solutions that solve the issue in the kindest possible way and listen to any suggestions we have.
It has been a huge relief to us to know that he is safe, surrounded by kind people and wee-cared for. He is content - for which we are very grateful. A GP visits every week and if he needs treatment they call me straightaway. It feels as if we are in genuine partnership dedicated to his well-being.

My dad has dementia, and he is being wonderfully cared for in the Lodge. The staff are extremely kind and very flexible, ensuring that dad feels at home. The food is excellent, and the activity coordinators do a very good job of ensuring that the residents have a wide variety of things to do. The
home has a warm and friendly atmosphere.

My mother (88) came here after the hospital advice. She is unable to walk and has many health complications. The care here is tremendous. Overall the staff are very friendly, always cheerful and kind. It is the kindness that shines above all else in this home. It is a happy place and all the
residents are relaxed, forming a wonderful home-like relationship with carers, nurses and admin staff. There is always some activity happening. We can visit whenever we like and the home is always clean - a tea trolley always doing the rounds.

We transferred our late Father in Law over to The Lodge from a different care home following a Decision Support Tool assessment. The Manager was so helpful and assisted us liaising with adult social care and the other care home in order to move him rather quickly. Dad moved there just before
Christmas and the difference in the 2 homes was amazing. The Lodge was like a 5 star in comparison.
The home itself is beautifully presented with nurse on sight. There are daily activities ensuring residents get involved with games etc. Staff are wonderful and always ask if we want a brew etc. Dad had an amazing Christmas there but his condition deteriorated not long after arriving. The final stages of dementia. The staff kept us informed regularly and again the manager ensured the doctor was called and fast track put in place. I can honestly say these people really care and I would have no hesitation in recommending this lovely place to families looking to place their loved ones in a kind safe environment.
