I'm very pleased with the care my Mother receives at Brigg's Lodge.
Mum is cared for well. She receives good personal care. Regular toileting. Medical attention if needed regularly.
Staff have a good understanding of her diagnosis of Alzheimer's Disease.
There is open visiting times for family
and friends to visit.
The food at the home is very good.

My father has been in Briggs for a long while now. He is beautifully cared for. He's not always very willing to get up out of bed in the morning and the carers are so kind and patient with him.
We're very happy with his care.

Briggs Lodge are brill,my nan was there until she passed not that long ago and were superb in her last days. Staff came in when at end of each shift to say goodbye just incase she didnt make the night. They were so caring and helped the family.

My mother was at Briggs Lodge for 3 1/2 years. She was always treated with care and the utmost respect at all times. All staff were incredible and worked extremely well as a team, nothing ever seemed too much trouble. As a visiting relative the care and friendship from all staff was above and beyond
mere duty it felt like a second home. Can't praise them enough.

All staff have been and are professional, caring and helpful. I find them all very approachable and willing to help with questions or if I need help with my husband. They always pay him attention when asked or voluntarily if they see he needs help or even just in passing. They have called me on a
couple of occasions , perhaps when he was unwell or if they needed information, and always respond to any questions or help I might need..
The fact that he is happy is a great relief to me and I would like to say a huge thankyou to everyone there for their continued support and care both to him, and to me.

My mum has been at Briggs since February 2025 and the care she receives is great and she seams happy. Mum has made friends with the staff and also some of the residents. The only thing lacking is the ability to have trips out each month - I believe though a minibus is being sought!

Office staff are excellent and supportive
Some care staff are wonderful at their jobs
Lots of facilities available but rarely see anyone using them.
Gardens could be more colourful and would be nice to see more bird feeders around the property

Briggs Lodge took care of my Mother during her residency which was over 2 years.
Their care and dedication was second to none. My sister and I were kept up to date on her health and we were informed of any issues.
During Mums last few days after her health deteriorated they gave her the love and
respect and dignity she deserved.
We cannot thank them enough for their care and dedication.
The staff are wonderful, from the nurses and carers to the reception and admin staff.

My sister has been looked after extremely well, and has been happy staying at Briggs Lodge. Every member of staff has been kind and considerate and nothing is to much bother.
04 February 2025
Generally happy with care provided.
Staff are always pleasant.
When I visited Mum in December:
1. Her bra had not been correctly fitted.
2. Her commode had some excrement in the bowl.
3. The second floor, where Mum's room is, still smells of urine.

The staff have been very helpful, understanding and supportive of my sister. All the staff are friendly and have made my sister's stay as comfortable and as pleasant as possible.
Communication with Briggs Lodge Residential and Nursing Home has been good and any problems resolved very quickly.

Throughout his time with you, we always felt that our dad was cared for with love, kindness, dignity and respect. The staff were approachable and your open-door approach was very reassuring; we were made to feel welcome at all times.

Overall I have no complaints with Briggs Lodge, all the staff are friendly and attentive. We never had an issues with any aspect of my mother's care and only moved her to bring her nearer to my home, otherwise she would still be in residence.

Following a difficult time when I realised I could no longer care for my husband at home, he became a resident in Briggs Lodge Residential and Nursing Home, almost twelve months ago, receiving care in the dementia unit. He is very happy and settled, getting very professional care from all the staff.
He enjoys the food which offers excellent quality and choice.
The staff are quick to respond to any health problems and keep me well informed if problems arise. They do not hesitate to liaise with the local GP surgery should extra care be needed.
I feel all his health and social needs are very well met with plenty of activities helping him to engage with residents and staff alike.
I would not hesitate to recommend Briggs Lodge for anyone requiring respite or long term care.

The care provided for my husband has been very good. The atmosphere in the home is pleasant and everyone seems to be happy in what they do. The food is good and plentiful. As someone else has observed, a weak link seems to be in the relationship with the GP, and depends on the feedback between the
home and the surgery. There can be long waits to get or change medication and depends on the Nurse Practitioner who visits once a week normally. Similarly, the HQ efficiency is poor. I still have not received a formal request for any funds three months into my husband's stay! One thing that could easily be changed is the very irritating 'phone system. I don't need all the advertising and would like to be able to talk directly to the home.

Friendly and helpful staff. Always seems to be clean and welcoming. The manager, deputy manager and staff are always helpful. Internal coordination and communication are occasionally not as strong as I would wish, but overall, very good.

My mum has been in Briggs Lodge Residential and Nursing Home for over two years now and throughout this time she's had consistently high levels of care and service. Every time we visit the home it's spotlessly clean with staff looking after and interacting with the residents. It seems to have a very
good culture and atmosphere inside the home, which is good to know. My mum is very happy there.
01 August 2024
The care has been amazing as my mum isn't mobile and they seem to look after her very well, she is very happy with everything which makes this process so much easier for the family. The rooms are modern with en-suite facilities and very comfortable.
15 July 2024
A lovely care home, modern, clean and tidy, with fantastic staff. They are professional, well-trained and motivated. Quick to update us when Mum has a problem, fully appreciative of Mum's condition, needs and challenges.
22 January 2024
New manager and acting deputy manager are very pleasant and cooperative. They are easy to approach and always make me comfortable.
