We are very happy with the care. My sister-in-law has only been in Bridge House for a month, initially just for respite, she felt so comfortable, safe and content that she wishes to stay there permanently. The staff are very good with her and she says the food is lovely and if there is a meal she doesn't
like they will always give her an alternative meal.

Reply from Abbie Shaw, Marketing Officer at Bridge House Residential and EMI Care Home

We are delighted to hear that your sister-in-law is feeling comfortable and happy at Bridge House. It's wonderful to know that she is receiving excellent care and enjoying the delicious food provided by the staff.

I do not have any experience of care homes and you see some horror stories on TV but I have been more than happy with my mother's care in Bridge House. The carers seem to be a tight knit unit with plenty of laughs thrown in. Most of them are local to where my mother grew up so that gives a reassuring
familiarity.
The management are very approachable and friendly and are open to suggestions to improve my mother's care.

Reply from Abbie Shaw, Marketing Officer at Bridge House Residential and EMI Care Home

Thank you for sharing your positive experience at Bridge House. We are thrilled to hear that you are happy with your mother's care and the close-knit team of carers. It's wonderful that many of them have a familiar connection to your mother's roots, providing a sense of comfort. Our management team values your feedback and is open to suggestions to enhance your mother's care.

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5

Overall home is good. My Mother likes to stay in her room, occasionally she will visit the lounge but doesn't partake in activities. However, she needs to be encouraged to leave her room for the room to be deep cleaned.
As for laundry, it is clean but unable to buy pleated skirts as the laundry person
puts them in the drier, have asked not to put them in the drier as pleats come out and underwear not white must be mixed with colours. Some good carers but occasionally have found my Mum wet think Mam could be encouraged to use the toilet more often, have spoken to the manager and hopefully this will be rectified.

It was very upsetting for Mum and me when she had to go into care. After a few weeks, Mum settled in lovely. She said she felt happy, contented and safe. The management and staff are very caring and considerate. Nothing is too much trouble. There is a lovely atmosphere there, and we, as a family, are
always made welcome. The home is clean, and Mum always looks very lovely. Lots of laughter. Highly recommended!

I have found both management and staff friendly and helpful. They provide help and support to the residents and visitors and answer any questions I may have. It is always clean and tidy. The garden is a lovely space to sit weather permitting. Entertainment is provided most days along with activities.
There are excursions twice a month for those who are able to go. Hairdresser weekly visit. All satisfactory.

A lovely, clean place that is very well managed. The care my mother has received since arriving here has been brilliant, all the staff are very friendly and take great care of her. The activities that the care home provides for the residents have been incredible and are a great way of keeping everyone

The social media page that the care home runs is also a great way of keeping up to date with activities and seeing family members enjoying themselves.

I am extremely pleased with the care Mum has received since entering Bridge House Care Home. The staff are extremely caring and go out of their way to ensure Mum's needs are met. As family members, we always receive a warm welcome and are fully involved in Mum's care. There is such a lovely atmosphere
and plenty of laughter which I particularly like. If any difficulties arise, and we have had none, they are dealt with promptly and in a professional manner. I am extremely grateful to everyone who works at Bridge House and would like to say a big thank you. I would definitely recommend this care home.

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

My 91-year-old mother went into Bridge House after nearly six months in and out of hospital, due to constantly falling at home and with the quick progression of dementia this meant she was unable to return home for me to look after her as I had previously been doing. It was a difficult decision accepting
this initially, but from the first visit there, all my worries and concerns were put to rest as everyone who works there genuinely care about the residents. My mam is happy, has settled in well and there are different activities each week to keep everyone entertained and occupied. The building is spacious, bright and spotlessly clean. Mam's room is a good size, comfortable with plenty of natural light. Communication is excellent and I have always been kept fully informed of anything that has happened from the first day she arrived in October 2022. Words cannot express how grateful I am to all staff for the extremely high standard of care, dignity and respect my mam receives there.
