Shedfield Lodge Residential Care Home

The care staff go above and beyond to give the utmost care to the residents. Nothing is never too much for them to ensure everyone's needs are met. Always there to care with a friendly smile.

The care given to residents at Shedfield is very caring with lots of smiles. My husband has settled very well even when he was at his most awkward nothing was too much trouble from the management to carers also domestics. They all do an exceptional job there.

My dad is extremely happy in the care home and the staff are all so lovely and caring, the home should be very proud of their staff.

Thank you very much for all the love and care that Mum received. Mum loved this home, the people and the food.

A big thank you to all the staff for taking good care of my Mum.

Thank you all so very much for all the wonderful care you gave 'P' over the years, he was really happy and at home with you all.

I would just like to say thank you for all you did for 'F'. We know that he was very well cared for at Shedfield Lodge. We know he enjoyed his time with you.

Thank you so much for looking after Mum and taking good care of her over the past 2 weeks. We are all so very grateful to every one of you.

We would just like to say thank you so much for welcoming Dad into your care. Your staff are an absolute credit to you, reflecting on the high standard that you expect.

We will always be grateful to you.

To all the lovely staff who have looked after 'B' with so much care and devotion, I shall always be very grateful.

I would recommend this care facility as my father was a resident before he passed away. He loved it and was very well cared for,

Thank you many things, caring for my mother for nearly 5 years, devoting time to her in her final days, dealing with the aftermath sensitively and a very thoughtful card of sympathy.

I'd just like to say thank you to all your staff for a wonderful day yesterday at the Garden party. It looked to me as if many of the residents enjoyed themselves as did there family's. The petting farm was great and the weather behaved itself!! It's been great to see all these activities at the home happening even if we've not always managed to attend them ourselves. What a great team you have, so caring, when for many families, I'm sure, it can be so hard to watch our loved ones slip slowly away from us. Pat on the back to all and thank you again. Medals all around.

Just wanted to say what an absolutely fabulous afternoon we had at the garden party. Shedfield Lodge really pulled out all the stops. It was really lovely. All the staff are so amazing with the residents and it is lovely to know how well my Nan is being cared for.

The home was well run, the atmosphere was great, the residents were all involved and the staff were incredibly kind and friendly to the residents. Such a refreshing experience.

When my husband was not so advanced with his Alzheimer's I thought they were great. As I know he is getting worse I feel that the times I have asked for advice and information they have been very dismissive to me and in fact I now feel I no longer want to talk to them. This is I think an important part of a care home.

My Mother has been in Shedfield Lodge for 1 year, the staff are very kind and friendly. If there are any issues at all they ring to inform me the same day. Mum was very unhappy for a couple days on going in to care, she has Alzheimers, and was very angry. She was forever falling and having accidents, burning things etc and we could no longer care for her properly at home. She is a changed person, eating well, joining in all activities and the main thing is she is safe.

The setting is very pleasant and the staff, the very essence of the care package, are excellent. Calm, thoughtful and very good at keeping relatives informed. The food is excellent and a variety of activities are offered every week. My mind is at rest with regard to my mother's care.

Dear everyone including temporary staff,

Of course it is sad when somebody under your care passes away and perhaps in your business you see it a little more than most. However having said that, as a former funeral director perhaps I would have beaten you all. But put that aside for a moment as it was nothing more than an attempt at a little humour.

When my mother moved into your home I came down to see her and we were both showed in and made to feel very comfortable. My wife and I were both offered a cup of tea, and within the next ten minutes three other offers of tea from other members of staff. In addition we were asked other questions about mum with the intention of making her stay more pleasurable. Well, I know you all did your best as one day after returning from a stay in hospital she said it was good to be home.

Home! Well that must be about the best compliment you can get from an inmate. In one word it says so many things about what you did and how you helped to make her stay as comfortable as possible. It must be very difficult to deal with a patient who has dementia; can say only a few words if that, and who needs help with everything other than watching television. From what I know you all did it with style and panache and the care was the very best.

Thank you all so very much for taking care of mum.

I would like to express my gratitude and thanks for the extremely professional and smooth reception by the staff of Shedfield Lodge, who received me upon attending an emergency call which took place at the address earlier today concerning an elderly gentleman. The friendly nature of the staff was welcoming upon my arrival and they ensured that information flowed freely to me when asking about the patients existing conditions, when unsure of they swiftly found the information I needed. Please pass on my sincere thanks and gratitude to those members of staff who assisted my in the early moments of the call. I attend a large number of rest/care homes in the execution of my role and meet many care staff. I am pleased to say that your staff were quite exemplary and I shall not forget them.
