Since my mother was admitted, I have been very impressed. The care home is spotlessly clean, and the staff are professional, very helpful and friendly.

Our experience of Holly Lodge has been fantastic, a lovely care home. Very good staff, they care for my mother-in-law very well. Very empathetic to her situation. The home has a high standard of cleanliness, and the facilities are second to none.

Sat in lovely garden with our former brother in law. Staff always helpful and welcoming. Staff showed care and consideration towards residents and visitors. Home always has a fresh welcoming smell especially in the entrance.

All staff friendly and welcoming. Lovely cake with morning tea. No Activities taking place. Hundreds of cigarette ends strewn in the residents garden, presumably left by night staff. Wheelchairs dirty and in much need of a thorough clean.

My mam stayed at Holly Lodge sadly she passed away in October 2024. I can not praise the Manager and staff enough they looked after my as if she was there own Mam. Holly lodge is spotlessly clean all the staff are just amazing. They kept me informed of everything regarding my mam care as i do not
live in Shildon. The manager is fantastic and is such a lovely person. I miss going to the home and seeing everyone. One last thing my Mam really loved living at Holly Lodge. Thanks for all your hard work.

The home have been very supportive, not only to my sister but to myself and other family members. During the decision making process of admitting her into a care home, and the guilt that went with that decision. Their support has continued from the first day when my sisters resistance was apparent.
Their manner in dealing with her, and how she is treated on a daily basis shows great compassion for her condition and needs. She is very settled even though I know she has her stubborn moments.

The care is of a good standard, there is always room for improvement, nothing is perfect. The staff have a difficult task dealing with residents with different complex needs and do a good job.

The staff are continually attentive and considerate of all residents. My mum has recently had a fall and the care she received was above and beyond what was expected. Management are also always caring and listens to any concerns and action is taken to resolve any issues that may arise. I could not
praise them enough.

I do not know what we have done without the caring, compassionate support of all the staff at Holly Lodge Care Home. They tackle each issue, as it arises with professionalism and a warm, caring attitude that makes the fragile situation with my dear wife more bearable. We are so grateful and owe them
so much.

We would just like to say a huge thank you to all the staff for looking after the lady we visit frequently. She is very old and a wonderful lady but is very poorly at the moment. Your staff have been marvelous with her and we do appreciate everything you've all done. Thank you all.
