After managing to get my father into this home after another one, the experience is night and day. The staff are all very caring and friendly. My father is very well cared for. Management is excellent and have been supportive to us as a family.

Having cared for my husband at home for two and a half years, I was anxious about finding a care home where he would be treated as an individual by a team of warm, caring and highly skilled staff. I needn't have worried. My instinct that this was an extremely well run care home was soon borne out. It became clear that administrative, care, nursing and "behind the scene" staff had worked successfully together for a long while. My husband sees familiar faces every day and, should anyone be absent, that place is filled by someone from Stanley Wilson's own staff bank. I feel we have a real rapport with staff and sense of working together for my husband's health and wellbeing. Friends and family who have visited always report how they were welcomed in reception and by care and nursing staff. When my visit is over, I always leave feeling relaxed and with a smile on my face knowing my husband is receiving the best of care.

The Care Home has been amazing, following a fall that left my uncle unable to continue living independently. It has proven to be a home away from home. Providing excellent care while adapting to his changing needs. It has allowed the family to feel welcome with a warm environment when visiting. It is spotlessly clean, has a bright friendly reception, and a relaxing garden for one to one time. I have every confidence the nursing care he is receiving is of the highest standard. All the staff are friendly and approachable while continuing to be professional. I am very grateful to have found it, and would not hesitate to recommend it.

I am extremely happy with the care given to my relative. The carers are very attentive and are always cheerful, polite and helpful. The home is kept clean and all staff work together to provide a first class service. The meals are very good and there are always options to choose from. I would definitely recommend Stanley Wilson Lodge to anyone who is looking for a care home for their loved one. Also the activities program each week has something for everyone.

From the moment we first visited we have experienced nothing but kindness, care and friendly attention and support. Any concerns are quickly and efficiently dealt with by staff who are professional but very approachable. Ideally we would like to see a quieter communal lounge, or at least more seating for those not wanting to watch TV.

I have been here 12 days. I received an enthusiastic friendly welcoming which has continued. Everyone is so kind and helpful. Several staff I already know and one is related to my family. My visitors to much appreciate the welcome. I appreciated the pre Christmas carol singing and participated in game and was allowed to spend time with my neighbor and look forward to attending other social activities. I was able to present Stanley Wilson Lodge with an album of photographs I prepared in 2010 of the demolishing of the 1962-2008 building and the building of the present one. I've lived close by since 1972 and visited the lodge many times.

Stanley Wilson Lodge has given my mother back her identity. She is safe, warm, well fed and well cared for. None of which she experience in hospital or when she returned to her own bungalow. This care home became the only option, although it is not what mum wanted. Stanley Wilson Lodge have made her welcome and made the transition to full time care so much easier. She is now happy and content to be in long term care. For myself the burden and worry has been lifted by her carers.

Since my father moved into Stanley Wilson Lodge, I have been delighted with the high standard of care and compassion he has received. This has enabled him to settle in very quickly and adapt to his new surroundings. He very much enjoys the company of other residents and is a regular at their activities. Overall, the whole family are so pleased we have taken this step and know he will be safe and well looked after 24 hours a day.

My Mum was very poorly in hospital and was worried about going into a care home. She didn't need to be, Stanley Wilson Lodge have been amazing. She is very happy and is very looked after. The staff are amazing. She is now eating well and her general and mental health has improved drastically. I can't thank the staff enough. She loves it in her room and said she wouldn't want to be anywhere else.

Stanley Wilson Lodge could be used as an example of how care homes should be. From the initial outlook of the reception with its friendly staff to the communal rooms and dining areas serviced by friendly dedicated staff. Individual care and accommodation are excellent with a varied programme and entertainment. It is highly recommended.

My mother appears well cared for and is very happy here. All of the staff are lovely and very caring.

Family member has recently moved from the residential to the dementia floor as his dementia has increased and, once again, I am so impressed with the care taken by the new team to get to know him, reassure and settle him in his new room (which he loves), and move all his pictures, etc., with minimum delay so that he had his familiar things around him right from the start. As is common, the dementia, and its frustrations for the sufferer, has brought its own challenges with some uncharacteristic behaviour developing but the team are tireless in their efforts to find solutions and to maximise all that he is able to do. Dementia or not, he absolutely understands this, and says frequently how lucky he is to be there and how lovely all the staff are. And he's right on both counts!

We've been coming here for a couple of years now and the service is great. My husband's nan lives here and she loves it just as much. There are always activities for the residents and top-notch care provided.

My mother is very well looked after. Being non-verbal, they are attentive to her needs.

You could not wish for a better facility than Stanley Wilson Lodge. Reception, en-suite rooms, dining rooms, and day lounges are excellent. Only surpassed by the caring and dutiful actions of all the staff for the day and night care. Social meal times and entertainment activities create a full and active day for residents if they wish to take part. Eleven out of ten for Stanley Wilson Lodge.

I write on behalf of myself and my siblings to express our deep appreciation of the love and care our mum has received since July 2022 at Stanley Wilson Lodge by all the staff and carers. It is a wonderful care home with dedicated staff such as the Team Leader, who spotted Mum's sepsis and has been very vigilant when Mum's health has deteriorated leading to specialist care at Addenbrookes. We are deeply grateful so thank you.

I would like to say that the care and support my husband receives is done to a high standard. The staff are excellent at their jobs and the place is clean and tidy. The food is excellent and I am happy to have been able to get my husband a place there.

I am extremely grateful my dad is now in your care, as with his dementia it was not possible to stay at home and having carers in three times a day was still not enough. It has taken a lot of worry away from me as I'm not in the best of health.

My mother has been a resident at Stanley Wilson Lodge for over 2 years now and due to her stroke requires nursing care. I can honestly say that from day one all of the staff have been magnificent. They genuinely care and their dedication, kindness, support and communication have been fantastic. The location of the home is also perfect and we regularly take Mum into town via her wheelchair. Thank you. We appreciate each and every one of you all!
