My mother is a very happy resident at West Hall. She receives a high standard of care, and the team at West Hall makes sure she takes part in the many fun activities available for the residents.

My post-op respite at West Hall has been most enjoyable. It has provided a caring and calm atmosphere in beautiful surroundings. The carers and residents of Oak Lodge have been kind and helpful, allowing me to join in and to feel at home, ensuring a swift recovery.

West Hall helped us host a wake for my step-father who had been a former resident.The team were exceptional. The function space superb and they went out of their way to host to a high level, the on duty manager polishing our glasses and the chefs catering superbly. One of the carers (Markie)
attended as a guest and was a huge support to everyone there, including some other wheelchair bound residents. Five stars for support all round.

Having viewed 8 other care homes we chose West Hall and Birch in particular for 1) the caring attitude of the staff, 2)friendly, welcoming atmosphere 3) high standard of rooms and facilities. After 7 months we have not been disappointed and would add 4) low turnover of staff.

My mother, who had advanced dementia, received excellent care while she was in West Hall (for several years). I can't praise the staff enough, particularly her key worker and the other carers. I will be forever grateful to them for the care they provided, and I would highly recommend West Hall.

I would just like to say how impressed my family were with the thoughtful and proactive way Oak Lodge management dealt with a change of routine, which had unsettled our mother. Once the reasons for the move had been explained, it became obvious it had been made in mother's best interests, and we
were filled with admiration by the Lodge's swift adjustment of the plan to reassure her while still ensuring the safest outcome for her. The new setup meant everyone was happy. Thank you not just for listening but for taking action so promptly.

My husband recently stayed at Birch Lodge within West Hall for respite care, and we were extremely pleased with the experience. The staff were very friendly, kind, attentive, and treated him with genuine respect. They took the time to get to know him quickly, and included him in two outings during
his stay with them. The meals were excellent, and he was cared for with real kindness, which gave our whole family great peace of mind.

I would like to say a big thank from the family to the team at West Hall for the quick turnaround for mum when she was discharged from hospital just before Christmas. To enable mum to have some rest-bite for three weeks the care team assessed mum at short notice. Thank you for the professional care
mum had during her stay it has been appreciated.

My brother has been and continues to be looked after very well. All the staff I speak to know my brother well, and cater for his individual needs. The staff are happy and really engage with my brother which improves his quality of life.

When I first contacted West Hall for a room I had left it till the last minute. I was treated very efficiently and a room was found; it didn't matter if I was discharged from hospital a day later than expected. The room was bigger than expected (I have a bit of claustrophobia) with a nice view. I
could have breakfast in bed. I was given 2 nice showers. The facilities were clean and the staff very kind. I would recommend it to anyone. I was sorry I didn't try any of the activities.
Staff are all friendly and really helpful. I have full confidence that my mother receives excellent care and has become more alert, having moved to Birch Lodge.
The manager, Marg & team head Suraj go the extra mile to care for the residents, taking time to get to know individual needs.

My husband has settled in very well at West Hall and the staff have been very caring and informative. They have been very flexible and have done everything they can to keep my husband happy. He has been on 3 trips out which he seemed to enjoy and the staff are happy to take him out in the fresh air
for walks in the garden.

My father has been living at West Hall for over six years and is completely dependent on the staff for all his needs. His carers have taken time and trouble to understand his needs and preferences, and even though he is immobile and non-verbal, they ensure he takes part in activities and events. The
team have also helped and supported me in applying for funding. Excellent.

I came to visit my friend, who has been here for a few years. The staff are amazing, including those at reception. They acknowledge you, they show their care and love. The place is super clean and welcoming.

Having had experience of quite a few care homes over the years with family members with dementia, I find the facilities and environment here excellent and staff attentive. My friend has settled in very quickly and happily. Highly recommend this care home.

Everyone is polite. Greeted by name. It has a village feel and has beautiful gardens to walk with a safe surface for wheelchairs. Lovely garden room with coffee and cakes to help yourself to when visiting.
