Overall Experience

My mother has recently moved to a nursing home and the staff were sad to see her go. We will miss our visits to Lyndon Croft, where both staff and management are caring and welcoming. We would recommend Lyndon Croft to anyone.

Overall Experience

The level of overall care is fantastic, with everything that has to be done they still notice the little things. Special attention is paid to the client's personality and interests and loved ones are made welcome and offered drinks.

I am happy and relieved to have found such a wonderful place for

my dad, it is a weight off my find and off the minds of my family, knowing that he is so well cared for.

Overall Experience

My sister has been a resident at Lyndon Croft since January 2015. Despite being diagnosed with vascular dementia she settled into Lyndon relatively well. She has lost mobility and understanding in the last two years. The staff at Lyndon have been very caring despite her incontinence. Their care for

her comfort and hygiene have been consistently good.
I visit my sister every week (failing my health problems) and in the two and a half years, she has been there the standards have been excellent.

Overall Experience

Mum has been a resident since October 2015. She has received a tremendous amount of support in a caring and reassuring environment. Mum appears content and is well cared for by friendly and approachable staff who are always willing to assist and provide homely, comfortable surroundings where she is

treated with dignity and respect. The carers are sympathetic and supportive which is extremely reassuring through theses difficult and sometimes unsettling times.

Overall Experience

All the staff know my mother and are always friendly and forthcoming with information about her. The staff are good at recognising her changing needs and my mother has very love levels of anxiety. The staff are diligent in offering food and drink to ensure proper hydration and nutrition. The management

always have time to hear over views and discuss my mother

Overall Experience

Overall I feel the home is alright. However, the security I feel could be better as there is only one door and it's easy for residents to leave by. Activities is another area I feel that could be better. Overall, I am happy with the service compared to other homes.

Overall Experience

My mother has been a resident at Lyndon Croft since October 2013. She is very happy and settled at Lyndon Croft.
Staff are friendly, approachable and very supportive. Mum is well cared for and feels very safe and secure at Lyndon Croft.
Staff go out of their way to meet individual residents needs

and support relatives at difficult times. Management is strong and the manager or her deputy are always on hand to answer questions or offer support.

Overall Experience

We as a family found it very difficult to cope with the fact that our mother had to go into care and making the right decision as to where mom would live was extremely important. We viewed many homes but didn't feel that they met mom's needs until we viewed Lyndon Croft. On viewing the home, we witnessed

that the residents seemed well cared for and the staff were very attentive.
Mom has lived at Lyndon Croft for over a year and we cannot fault the staff and the care they give. We have peace of mind knowing that she is safe and being properly looked after. Her room is an adequate size and is kept spotlessly clean. The meals look appetising, plentiful and judging by appearance, made with fresh ingredients.
I would recommend Lyndon Croft for all the reasons stated above, specifically for the care the staff give. They not only make sure the residents are well looked after, but also treat them with respect and ensure the resident's dignity is maintained at all times.

Overall Experience

My dad has been at Lyndon Croft since October 2016. It's an amazing home. The staff are so caring and so are the managers. My dad has settled in so well at the home. There is always activities happening. The food is fantastic. Both my sister and myself looked at other care homes and none of them came

up to the standard of Lyndon Croft. It is always so clean there.

Overall Experience

My mother moved into this home last month. Out of several different homes I considered, this was by far the best and I have been very pleased with my choice.
All staff are always helpful, cheerful and professional and I know my mother is in good, safe hands.
I have been impressed with not only the

care provided but also the range of activities and social interaction available.

Overall Experience

My sister and I were upset when our mother was diagnosed with dementia and we were advised to look for 24 hour secure care. We feel so fortunate to have found Lyndon Croft Care Home. The kind care and attention our mother has received from the staff has been second to none.
They are "on the ball" and

any health issues are identified and dealt with immediately. They operate an open door policy and the warm and happy atmosphere is a testament to the dedicated entire staffing team.

Overall Experience

I don't live close to Lyndon Croft Care Centre, but when my sister first suggested it for our Mum, I had a look online and really liked what I saw in photos and what I read. Mum was a resident for a number of years. Every time I visited, the first thing I noticed was the lovely atmosphere! It is a happy

and peaceful place. The staff are very friendly, welcoming and compassionate. Their genuine love and care for Mum was at times, quite overwhelming, especially in the last few weeks of her life. I'll always be grateful that Mum spent her last years here. To the Management and Staff, thank you so much!

I am writing this because my mum passes away in February 2017. She was a resident here for nearly 2 years. The staff here are amazing, they were mums other family. They looked after all her needs and could not do enough for her. The end of life care was brilliant, to mum and to us. I am glad she went

here.

Overall Experience

Although we as a family have only had praise for the management and care team who have cared for our mother over the past few years. We are full of gratitude towards them for the love, care and compassion we have all been shown as mum faced her end of life journey. No chore was ever too great and carers

were always supportive carrying out menial and not so menial chores with great compassion and professionalism. Their friendly disposition was always welcome in dealing with the challenging issues we were facing and visits that could have been unpleasantly emotional were always turned around by them being there to support. There is a wonderful team of people at this centre, always ready to embrace the daily challenges they face.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for all that you did for our mum and continue to do for other mums and dads.

Overall Experience

My cousin was admitted to Lyndon Croft earlier this year and although to date I have only visited 3-4 times, I would like to say what a lovely atmosphere I noticed. The staff are so pleasant, friendly and always ready and willing to attend to any requests or queries.
The residents look well catered

for. It must be such a relief to the residents families knowing how well cared for they are. I would highly recommend Lyndon Croft.
