The home is very friendly, and the staff are very good with my aunt - she particularly likes her visits off a particular staff member. She has settled in very well and likes her garden room.

My dad has been in a care home for 18 months, and his care deteriorated to the point he was safeguarded. I visited him daily as I was concerned for him. He has moved to Ivy Gate, and within days, I noticed a huge difference. I can now visit him without worrying. The whole ambience is perfect. The staff
keep me informed of his wellbeing, and I couldn't fault anyone it's like a family away from home.

“our mum" was so poorly when she arrived at Marine Lodge the belief was “she didn’t Care long” with the correct care, love, attention and the understanding of 'our mums” special “care” needs, although mum is still "thriving” because the staff care and seem to be devoted to their roles + responsibilities.

In the beginning, my aunt wasn't too sure as she was living independently and found it hard to accept help from strangers. As time went by she became to realise the staff were here to help her and make her stronger, and they certainly did. The once strangers have become family. Not only to Aunty, also
to her extended family. Brilliant staff, unfortunately I can't use names, however, they will know who they are.

My wife has been resident since May'23. We as family were very apprehensive but we are pleased she settled quickly, and is always warm and comfortable and well cared for. The staff know her well and are more than kind and caring. They are also most courteous to all our family members. Just a little
disappointed when necessary repairs for water supply in lounge, and lift which had broken took so long to correct. Lift still out of order.

The care that my sister received whilst being really poorly with a badly infected leg. Whoever I put my concern to was very 'up' with the situation. Always helpful to me with many of my questions.
I much appreciate all the care that she received by the 2nd floor staff.

Windmill Lodge Residential. This is run as a business to make profit, that is the bottom line. The management is uncaring and unprofessional. When you see behind the facade, it's a different story. The only positive we can mention are the carers who are employed. Would not recommend this place. The
Nolan Day Centre. Wonderful place, fantastic staff, would highly recommend.

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

From the moment I walked into Lighthouse Lodge on 21 January, I felt welcome. Having had a procedure at hospital that day, first impressions were vital for my confidence. I was not disappointed. I cannot fault any aspect of the care, and would not hesitate to recommend it. Nurses were meticulous, caring,
kind, professional. Carers did exactly that. They cared deeply that I was safe, happy, warm, and comfortable. I left on 4 February, feeling I was on the road to recovery, and I am very grateful to Lighthouse Lodge.

Since Dad transferred from respite services to Birkdale Tower Lodge, he has become relaxed, happy and his health has improved. The staff are conscientious and kind and genuinely have the residents' wellbeing at heart. There are a variety of activities to engage and entertain, but no one is pressurised
to take part. We've been delighted at how well Dad has settled in and would not consider anywhere else.

My husband was in for respite for 4 weeks, he returned home but was unable to manage so had to return to the care home. The staff were excellent with their understanding of the situation and he soon settled back in. He likes a shower daily and the staff always make sure this happens. He is well cared
for. It is very clean and friendly care home.
