My mum came into the home October 2024. She has settled in really well, and been made to feel welcome. The staff who look after her are so nice, friendly and kind. They give her the utmost care, which is why she has settled so quickly. When visiting the staff are very warm and welcoming, and friendly.
Which give it a lovely atmosphere.

Thornton Hall is easily accessible by public transport and also has an ample car park. On entering the building, welcoming staff greet you with a smile and a bit of banter. Inside, the carers strive to maintain a tidy, hygienic environment and keep the residents groomed and clean. There is an excellent
programme of activities and daily menu on the notice board. Family and friends are always welcome to join in. There is a beautiful, well-kept, safe, garden with benches and a table under a gazebo. I like to walk with my brother there, so he can get a bit of fresh air and exercise, and snack and play a board game or do a jigsaw together. My brother doesn't know where he is, but I feel rest assured he is in the best place.

My lovely mum passed away in the home on Wednesday 24th July.
I would like to thank all the staff from the office day staff and night staff and the cleaners.
I could not have wished for better people to look after Mum - her care and mine was impeccable.
Thank you to everyone.

My mum has been at Thornton Hall for 18 months. Mum has received outstanding care and support. The staff are amazing, they treat Mum with dignity and respect. They care for her needs in the most professional way. The staff do an extremely demanding job and should be highly commended for the outstanding
quality of care they provide.

Mum lasted 2 weeks here. In that time she had 4 falls, of which 3 resulted in hospital admissions and 1 needed a paramedic visit. 2 of the falls were from the same chair on consecutive days. The last fall resulted in readmission to hospital, who phoned the care home to find out why she was back again.
Thornton told the hospital that they could not meet her needs after all and refused to take her back. This was despite us giving Thornton a worst case pen picture of Mum's needs, to which they replied that they could definitely accommodate her.
Numerous things were promised at the start, such as a sleep monitoring system, and I even suggested a low bed so, if she fell, it would only be from knee height. None of this materialised in the period she was there.
Finally, when she first arrived, we stocked her wardrobe with clothes which were individually labelled with her name. Within 3 days, loads of her stuff had disappeared, way too much for her to have worn in that time.

Reply from Michelle Duvall, Home Manager (interim) at Thornton Hall & Lodge Care Home

I am sorry Thornton Hall and Lodge were unable to meet your mum's needs. Whilst we were made aware of mum being a high risk of falls it became apparent that Mum required a more in-depth care package that we were sadly not able to provide. After discussions with hospital and Social worker it was agreed that Mum's needs would be best met in an alternative care home. I would like to wish your mum well in her new care home.

My sister is new to Thornton Hall I have found the main care staff and cleaners to be very helpful and caring and go above and beyond for my sister's care. Her room was fully decorated when she first arrived being able to bring her own personal items as a bonus. The reception and office staff are always
friendly, and helpful and listen to any issues or concerns. The food menu could be improved not nutritional, not much protein or vegetables. Clothes go missing even though they do not go to the laundry. Lack of communication when reporting issues or requests with management emails are ignored. The dining area needs improving, and the gardens are maintained.

My sister and I are so reassured about the care and safety of our mother at Thornton Hall. From reception, office (finance) to care staff, cleaners and caterers, entertainment and management (plus anyone not mentioned) we note the excellence of your team. The room facilities are of the highest quality
and the wider resident experience. Thoughtful entertainment/social events maintain mental and physical stimulation.
We consider ourselves fortunate that care of such high quality is available for our mother. Thank you.

My sister is very happy and more relaxed since coming to Thornton Hall and Lodge Care Home. She has settled in and is always walking about, so much so she will wonder off to have a chat with other residents. I only hope she can stay here for her future wellbeing. I see a vast different in her moods
in her day to day dealings and involvements with all the staff. She has no problems, so I have no cares about her ongoing welfare whilst she remains in Thornton Hall and Lodge Care Home.

I always find Thornton Hall & Lodge Care Home to be welcoming and bright. Smells are kept to a minimum as rooms are refreshed when necessary. I have been to other care homes where this is not the case. The staff smile and are very approachable. When the mayoress visited, nothing needed to change as
it was always nice.

Mum has been staying here for almost three years in the dementia (lodge) side of Thornton Hall. As this is the only care home I have experienced with Mum, I can't compare it with others. Overall, Mum appears to be well treated but I have no idea what her day-to-day routine is as I get little to no communication
from management (apart from social media posts). A good idea would be for a forum to be created between friends and families of the residents to share experiences to improve the facility for both residents and staff. I can see lots of potential to improve this care home for all.

The reception is very good. Some changes to the lodge lounge. The chairs are not very good, uncomfortable. Dining tables could be set out at meal times (re table cloths). This is just my opinion.

Thornton Hall & Lodge Care Home offers a very warm and welcoming environment for both residents and their families. The staff are very helpful, attentive and caring my mum has been very well looked after in the eleven months since she moved there following her diagnosis of dementia. She loves to get
involved with all the activities that they lay on to keep the residents' minds and bodies active - from playing games to gardening, to meeting animals, watching films and having a sing and a dance! I have great peace of mind knowing she is being well looked after and would highly recommend Thornton Hall to anyone looking for a care home.
