Malcolm is looked after well with his complex needs.

Graham has been very happy here. He loves his room as he likes the view of the garden. He has put on weight since being here.
All staff are lovely, always got a smile on their face.
Home is very homely.

Well it didn't last! My earlier review only reflected the situation for the first 4 weeks of Respite. After that things changed dramatically and ended up with me having to take my partner (who has Alzheimers) out of the home for her own protection and terminating the contract. Following 2 attacks
from a patient with dementia she was moved to another section where everyone had physical issues not mental ones and they all remained in their beds all day. She had nobody to mix with except one guy with capacity who was allowed to take advantage of her. This was a shocking experience. If you care for your loved ones you should not bring them here.

Rendlesham provided very good facilities, the whole complex was always clean and welcoming. The staff were always helpful and nothing was too much trouble. They took very good care of my sister-in-law in the last months of her life.

I chose to come to Rendlesham Care Centre after having hip replacement surgery for onward recovery. The staff are all lovely and so friendly and helpful. The place has a good feel about it. I was able to join in with activities which I really enjoyed. My room was sunny and contained all I needed for
my two-week stay.

My aunt's stay at Rendlesham Care Home has been a wonderful experience for her and myself. I can't find fauly in any area of her care here. Unfortunately, as her care needs have changed over the last few months, a closer home to me would mean I could see her more regularly. I can't say thank you
enough for the wonderful care she has had.

Thank you to Rendlesham Care Home. My mum enjoyed her three-week stay. Mum went into your care after having several falls at home. We are pleased to say she is now regaining her confidence. The staff and management have been brilliant, delivering very friendly expert care.

I was only in care centre for 10 days. It covered the christmas period.
My short stay was made very comfortable and I enjoyed Christmas. I should be back again for two weeks, after I get or if I get my op for hip replacement. Management and staff were all very kind and caring.

I always find the staff here very pleasant, nothing is too much trouble to them, my sister is happy; her room is always clean and tidy and the kitchen are always helpful with her meals.

Friendly welcome, clear explanation of visitor registration. Escorted to my friends room. Given cup of coffee by nice member of staff which was much appreciated.

The care home has a happy atmosphere, all the staff are friendly and caring, making a visit on a pleasure.

The room was not fit for use, no water in the cold tap, broken loo roll holder, loo seat to low for elderly person and no grab rail. No bedside light and light switch to overhead light by door. Room door "whumped" each time the door in corridor was opened. Snail trails on carpet in room. Broken
alarm call. Mother not dressed properly, no socks and no bra, and pad on wrong way round. Mother found in tears on first day of stay and intimidated. Had been told was never going to leave again. When we said we'd take her out for a cup of tea she said she wouldn't be allowed to come. Fellow resident, who spent his time in the dining/common room, shouted continuous stream of filth. Not his fault but not suitable backdrop for mother's meals. When we removed mother, after two nights, an item of clothing had been lost and to this day not found. (It was labelled.) All subsequent calls to care home met with promises to call back but that never happened. Cold water in tap and other issues not resolved.

The staff have always been approachable, friendly and efficient. Though I haven't had a chance of personally witnessing activities within the home, there seem to be various things for the residents to take part in and invitations to them regularly offered to residents. I am most impressed by the
standard of food. Residents are made to feel really at home with freedom to come and go, as they please (if safe) and take part in as much or as little as they want. Overall a caring and pleasant care home. Well done!

I have recently started to volunteer at Rendlesham care centre with my dog Scout (Pets As Therapy) and today was my third visit.
The care centre has a very lovely and bright environment whilst also being very safe and secure which is something I noticed almost immediately. It is very clean and
welcoming and the staff are lovely. I am mostly escorted by the activity staff and sometimes Community Relations Manager. I was impressed that they knew all the residents personally and they try and introduce me to everyone. It's great to see the residents interact with Scout, I think she really makes a difference. Scout loves all the attention and fuss and we always leave there with great sense of satisfaction knowing we have made a difference to someone's day.
To be honest, it was Rendlesham care home that inspired me to become a PAT dog owner, we both get so much enjoyment from our visits and it's lovely to get to know the residents, they always have some lovely memories to share.

What a fantastic care home. My father was there for the last 9 months of his life. He had Alzheimer's and was both mobile and at times aggressive so a difficult patient to look after. Finding a suitable home was to prove a major issue; after short stays he was rejected from two care homes and I
tried to get my father into some 17 other care homes. Eventually I found Rendlesham Care Home which accepted him and looked after him with great care and affection. The care home got him on the right medication, he settled in and spent the last few months of his life as happy and comfortable as one could hope for - a big thank you to all the wonderful staff who looked after my father in his last days.

The staff work and interact as an understanding, high standard, kind, knowledgeable and compassionate in every aspect of a quality team approach to and for my darling husband! Our son's friends, and family have offered excellent feedback, on their regular visits. The sense of calm and attention for
the residents and staff team alike, truly is heartwarming, impressive and reassuring. Thanks to all.

My friend loves it here. The staff are all friendly and they enjoy the meals here. They also love the room they are in. Rendlesham Care Centre is in a lovely corner of Suffolk, near Woodbridge which is great for a lovely day out.

A delightful care home. We visited our dear friend who seemed very happy here. Settled in well. Found the home to be very clean and tidy. Well-appointed rooms and we found the staff and the management to be very friendly and approachable.
