My partner has lived Bridgeside Lodge for almost a year. It is a truly unique and OUTSTANDING Care Home. The Management Team go above and beyond looking after the Residents - they include friends and family members. It has truly become an extended family. I will be forever grateful for Bridgeside Lodge and fought tooth and nail for my partner to stay there now his money has run out. I have been supported throughout this long battle. EXCELLENT and WONDERFUL Care Home. Thank you so much.

The manageress and staff were extremely kind and thoughtful throughout the process of seeing my partner into the home. Their supportive attitude made it possible for him feel welcomed and to settle in smoothly, and helped me although this stressful and difficult period. Despite his condition and lack of awareness he remains cheerful and enjoys some activities especially the musicians visits and jazz style sing a longs.

The care home is very clean. The staff keep me informed of the progress of my mother. There are a lot of social activities and a lot of dignity is given to my mother's condition. The meals are well balanced.

Mum is really blessed to live here. She is always happy & comfortable when we visit. She gets on so well with the staff. The staff are very friendly and helpful. They organised a nice birthday lunch for mum, she was so happy. Mum's room is always fresh & clean & so is the whole home. It is nice to sit in the lovely garden with Mum. She also enjoys the live music events. The management is very friendly & approachable.

My mum has been in BSL for many years in BSL first floor her carers and nurse are absolutely outstanding. Myself and all the my siblings are so relaxed knowing our mums being so well cared for. I highly recommend BSL and can not speak highly enough for all her care. The staff go above and beyond on a daily basis. Mum attends daily activities and garden bbq's for all the family. 10/10 so very grateful.

I have visited a close friend at Bridgeside Lodge on several occasions but the two dates above refer to birthday celebrations which Bridgeside hosted and helped to host. I have nothing but praise for the centre, its manager or the staff. Thank you Bridgeside!

My dad recently moved into Bridgeside Lodge after a tough few months, if not years, of an Alzheimers diagnosis, long hospitalisation with an infection and then a big move across the country. The comfort, security, belief and happiness we get from his care at Bridgeside is incomparable. He is treated with respect and love, and as result has settled in quickly and happily. We (his family and friends) are also treated and looked after so well. We feel personally we consoled and supported with every interaction. Could not be happier.

Having been in at least three other care homes, I feel that I can make a valid comparison of Bridgeside Lodge to what else is available in the market. Bridgeside Lodge is hands-down the best home that I have experienced , the staff are professional and kind. They are also very caring and look after all of my medical/comfort needs really really well. The management of Bridgeside Lodge under the manager deserves special mention as she is a real team leader and instills a great sense of teamwork and family into the staff

My mother has been a resident here now for over a year and our family are very pleased with the way in which she has been cared for and made to feel like it is her home and not 'a home'. She arrived here in the worst of circumstances but the professionalism of the staff and the thorough nursing care have transformed her physical ailments so that she is now comfortable and healing and has become very fond of her carers. We feel very lucky to have found a home like Bridgeside Lodge Care Centre and have no hesitation recommending it to anyone who has need of such care.

I commend the empathy and professionalism in all aspects of my brother's care. The management and all staff are outstanding in their dedication to the care of my brother. Bridgeside Lodge Care Centre provides the reassurance one needs when one's loved one requires the additional care. Thank you Bridgeside Lodge Care Centre staff.

The manager and her team take such amazing, kind care of the residents. When I speak to family members they praise the staff without prompting. The residents are the centre of their world. This is a truly wonderful home and I love visiting it.

The manager and her team and Bridgeside Lodge Care Centre supported my mother over the course of twelve years following a hypoxic brain injury which led to paralysis from the neck down and extreme communication challenges. During an incredibly painful and traumatic time for my mother as well as us, as a family, Bridgeside, from the very first moment, made us feel part of their family. Offering kindness, compassion, understanding and a shoulder to cry on. My mother had incredibly complex needs and Bridgeside Lodge staff were able to cater to them, not just from a duty-bound perspective but also from a place of genuine care and consideration. I speak on behalf of everyone in my family when I say that we are so grateful for the care my mother received whilst at Bridgeside and I thank each and every one of the staff who cared for my mother from the bottom of my heart. You are all angels.

The care that my mother has received at this care home has been amazing. Every person who works at this facility treats my mother with care and respect. The staff are helpful and knowledgeable, and it is a huge comfort to us as a family that our loved one is being taken care of by such an incredible team of people.

This is the best of the best! My mother is at the end of her life and the care and attention and affection she is receiving are really wonderful. I feel so good knowing that she is with everyone here. I cannot recommend Bridgeside Lodge Care Centre enough. I am so sad about how things are in the UK, how expensive care is and how the whole country treats their old people. They say you can tell a culture by how they treat their old and Britain is failing and the costs are ridiculous. Everything should be standard charges and there should be a national service to teach the young to work with the old for two years so that they have an understanding and an appreciation of what happens at the end of life.

This is an excellent care home. All the staff are friendly and hardworking. My mum is well cared for, and I am so happy with the care she receives; she could not be in a better place. The manager is so caring and attentive and knows every single resident. I know my mum is safe and happy.
12 April 2023
I visit my friend's partner roughly every 5 to 8 weeks. I have noticed a marked progress in her condition, in particular, she is able to communicate and respond more in head movement and expressions. I can see she is so well cared for by everyone in the team and nothing is too much trouble for them. They deliver a professional and exceptional level of care. The extracurricular activities promote the patients and their families, community spirit and family value. It is this holistic approach to her care that I feel contributed to her improvement.
