My auntie loves Lauder Lodge and thoroughly enjoys her time there. You can see from their social media pages that all the residents are happy and engaged. I searched many care homes before choosing this one and I'm so glad I made the decision! Thanks everyone!

Mum has been a resident at Lauder Lodge for almost 2 years. In that time she has been treated with the utmost respect and care and mum would consider her carers as friends. The care home is maintained to a high standard with lovely adjoining gardens where activities are regularly arranged. mum is
encouraged to keep mobile by taking part in keep fit sessions and to socialise with other residents in the various activities that take place. Staff exude an atmosphere of calmness and nothing is ever to much trouble.

My Mum has been a resident at Lauder Lodge for over 12 months and we have experienced illnesses and increasing frailties. Throughout I have found Lauder Lodge facilities, care, food, activities, management and staff to be excellent. I want to thank Staff for their care, empathy and support.

I have seen a lot of care homes over the years assessing appropriate care for friends and feel this is the best i have seen. this entails on entering the home the atmosphere is pleasent, warm and nicely decorated which means a lot. on entering the scent in the home is pleasant. the receptionist have
all been very helpful and making people relax and when show rounds are done they make you feel welcome. the cafe on the 2 flooor is always made available to friends ad family with great choice of food and drinks.

My Mum has been in Lauder lodge for a few weeks. All of the staff are excellent very helpful and attentive with both my Mum and all her visitors. The facilities are very good with lovey gardens and cafe for everyone to enjoy.There are various activities and they are constantly looking for different
things for the residents to give them variety.
Rooms are bright and spacious and everything is spotlessly clean.
We visited a few care homes and this was by far the best

My friend has been a resident for many years now, the staff are so considerate towards his needs, who ch are many due to his condition, but they treat him with respect on a daily basis. He always knew he wanted to stay here and he loves everything about it.

I cannot speak highly enough of this care home. From the very first visit to then bringing my grandma, it was clear that the staff genuinely care about the residents and go above and beyond to create a safe, welcoming, and homely environment. The team are not only highly professional but also
incredibly kind, patient, and attentive. It's reassuring to see such genuine compassion in everything they do especially for my grandma. There are plenty of activities and social opportunities for everyone and my gran absolutely loves it. The communication is excellent, and nothing ever seems like too much trouble for the staff. Choosing a care home is never easy, but this place has been an absolute blessing for me, my family & definitely for my grandma Knowing our loved one is safe, comfortable.

My Mum has been living in Lauder Lodge for 6 months now. She settled in very quickly and is very happy.
Staff at all levels and roles are fantastic. Everyone is friendly, attentive and helpful - nothing is ever any bother.
The care my Mum receives is excellent and she has nothing but good to say
about her experience there.She tells me she feels like she is living in a 5 star hotel rather than a care home.
On a personal level I feel confident and happy my mum is receiving the level of care she needs. I am contacted immediately if there are any concerns, or to ask my opinion on issues.

I visit 6 of our Religious Sisters and have Power of Attorney for four of them. They are all very happy with the care they receive annd I find all the staff very friendly although I am not a resident.

Mum has been a resident at Lodge Lauder for over 7 years. She has been well looked after by the staff during that time. She has always been treated with dignity and respect.
Mum has Dementia which has increased rapidly over the past few years. She had a bad few days over the Christmas period so been
in bed more.
It was her Birthday last week and thanks to the amazing staff her day was made extra special. Huge thanks to the staff who went over and above for Mum.

We find all of the Staff at Lauder Lodge very accommodating and helpful. All the facilities are great and you can always find a member of Staff when needed. Nothing is ever a bother. Lovely cafe upstairs where you can enjoy a nice coffee in a relaxed environment.

This evaluation is based on 1-2 hour daily visits and discussions with staff that are relevant to my husbands care and well being. All grades of staff are friendly, helpful and attentive. Because of my husbands frailty and advanced dementia it is difficult to give a true evaluation to all options.
Any problems that have arisen have been dealt with to my satisfaction.

It is nearly three years since my mother entered the care home and during these years the experience has been consistently very good. Staff at all levels have treated my mother and her family with dignity and kindness. A marked contrast to the care home my father went into.
I am impressed with the
relatively low level of staff turn over over the past three years in an industry where staff retention is challenging. This consistency is to the benefit of residents who build up a relationship.

Please remember that my review covers my first five weeks at Launder Lodge and also my first five weeks in a care home. My experience is entirely positive. All staff whether carers, nursing, admin or cleaning etc, work wonderfully together with the aim of making life as good as possible for the
residents and patients. They actively seek out opportunities to help and work as a well-drilled yet informed team. I have felt welcome and an integral part of Lauder Lodge since first arriving here. Thanks to all of you who have supported me in the early days.

My dad has been a resident at Lauder Lodge for a couple of months now and has settled in incredibly well, largely due to the consistently kind, thoughtful and very person-centred care provided by all the staff. He is loving trying out a range of activities and thoroughly enjoying the catering. The
staff manage to be incredibly professional whilst also creating a welcoming, friendly and home-like atmosphere. We couldn't be happier with our experience so far!

I've been visiting Lauder Lodge with my therapy dog, Bonnie for the past year or so. We have visited other care homes before but this is by far the best.
When I visit I am able to observe staff interacting with residents and they are always so kind, supportive and professional, whether they
are admin, nursing, care, activity organisers or domestic staff.
Physically the Home is bright, well maintained and very comfortable with a range of activities provided for everyone, geared to their capabilities.
There's always a warm welcome from staff and residents when Bonnie and I visit. If I need to go into a home when the time comes I'd be very happy for it to be Lauder Lodge.

Helpful and caring staff who try their very best both for residents and visitors.
A lovely place, homely and well maintained.
Plenty of exciting things going on for the residents
- very creative activities timetable!
