Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

The team at Braeburn are just BRILLIANT they do a wonderful job of looking after each and every person in the home. It is like a home away from home. My great-grandfather has really settled in and is very happy there. The staff know what he loves and what he dislikes and they take care of all his
needs. We know he is in safe hands - given my great-grandfather is 103 years of age it is such a relief to know he is looked after. A big thanks to the team.

All staff are very friendly and already have gone above and beyond in welcoming Mum into their care. In particular, during a recent room swap, a member of staff rearranged the new room upon request (the same day) to provide more space and to also help reduce Mum's anxiety about change. It is still
early days but presently I feel very happy with my Mother's care and surroundings.

Outstanding care in a beautiful environment. I have immense praise for all the staff for their care and kindness to their clients. The home is wonderfully clean and well presented. This was my second experience with Chatterwood House Nursing Home. My mother moved there in 2020 and after a visit with
her, my aunt asked me if she could also move there when the time came as she could see how lovely the home was and the outstanding care. Both my mother and aunt were very happy at Chatterwood.

Braeburn Lodge

from S S (Daughter of Resident) published on 30 January 2025
Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

Wonderful care home.
Since my mother became a resident, she has been surrounded by the best care and ultimately, love.
Nothing is too much trouble, ideas, plans and needs are often suggested before I ask.
Staff are so friendly to the guests, families and visitors. The manager, senior carer, chef,
maintenance, housekeepers, everyone is involved with the residents and treat them with dignity and respect but also laugh with them and have fun.
Residents are entertained on a daily basis with in-house activities, crafts, baking and a 'theme week' occurs nearly every week of the year! Trips out are a frequent occurrence, treats are encouraged.
This is now my mum's safe space, she is happy and content and wants for nothing.
A brilliant place, five stars from me!

from R H (Granddaughter of Resident) published on 29 January 2025
Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

My grandmother has been a resident at Braeburn Lodge for nearly four years now.
The care she receives is exemplary and second to none.
The home is small, so it really is like a family home, all the residents dine together round a large dining table which really adds to the family feel.
The residents
lead such an active lifestyle, going out to various clubs and activities multiple times a week and if they're not on a trip out, there is always something going on in the home to keep them busy.
The food is beautiful, homemade every day, including fresh cakes.
As relatives, we are really made to feel part of the family and there are several events each year where we all come together as families with staff to spend time together, having a BBQ or other event.
My grandmother is so happy and truly loved and exceptionally well cared for.
I wouldn't consider anywhere else to look after my loved one.

The Orchard

from Michelle E (Sister of Resident) published on 29 January 2025
Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

My sister moved into The Orchard Care Home (OCH), just over a year ago, at a very difficult time in her life. My sister was welcomed by all staff members, including ground staff E.g. Handymen and gardeners. She received the best care that she needed, and continues to; in addition it is the best care
we could have ever wanted for her as a family. OCH have done all they can to support her, on a personal and emotional level, and by taking her out to different activities. Friends and family have observed since my sister has moved into OCH, she has become more independent and learnt many skills i.e. Interpersonal and craft. My sister is very happy at OCH and in her own words 'would not want to move to anywhere else'. To echo my sister's view - as a family we highly recommend OCH to anyone.

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5

My mother was admitted to Applewood care home in February 2020 at the age of 99 after suffering a fall, fracturing her wrist and pelvis. She was also suffering from dementia. Throughout the 5 years, she has been very well cared for. The staff are all very friendly, working efficiently as a team providing
a high standard of care. Over time her physical and mental condition have deteriorated steadily and the home has taken the necessary steps to adjust her care to avoid accidents and to provide appropriate stimulation.

Ganarew House

from Amanda D (Daughter-in-law of Resident) published on 24 January 2025
Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

My father-in-law has been at Ganarew for over a year now, he went through some traumatic experiences prior to living at Ganarew and had been in two previous "care homes". Both experiences left us feeling like we had no option but to care for him ourselves, which we tried to do. Unfortunately, his care
and safety were above what we could handle at home, and with the aid of social services, we started to look at homes again. We were offered several places over a 4 month period and turned them down. Then we found Ganarew, made a call and went to visit. It instantly felt safe, welcoming and friendly. There was a distinctive "family" feel and all the residents and staff appeared to be happy and content. The rooms are well-equipped and the building is light, clean and comfortable. The care is exceptional and we know he is in safe hands. I really couldn't recommend Ganarew highly enough. The team make what is a hard decision for a family, easy, because you know they care about their residents.

My grandma has been at Braeburn Lodge for over six years now, the home has provided her with a homely and safe place to live where she receives all the help and care she needs.
I like that it is a small care home, it always feels clean and the staff are always helpful and caring. Also, there are plenty
of activities/trips out that Grandma loves to be involved in.
I would definitely recommend Braeburn to anyone needing the facilities, care and comfort they offer.
P.S. Thank you for all you do for Grandma!

Dad has been a resident for 8 months now and the staff are always attentive and kind. Dad does not always understand his own needs and can refuse care at times, staff have taken time to get to know him and learn the best way to help him. Whenever we've had any questions or concerns the staff have listened
and acted upon them where necessary. He has always been treated with dignity and respect. As a family, we are very happy and confident in the care Dad receives.
