Badgers is a place where special people look after and care for the most treasured and special people in your life as if they are family members. They are treated with respect, love and dignity. My loved one has complex needs and has been living there for four years and in this time everyone has been giving her quality of life and making her life matter. The saying goes it takes a while village to raise a child, but this case it takes a people from all villages, towns, cities and countries of the world to love the most precious member of your family.

On visiting my son, very often unannounced, he always appears well cared for and content. Although lacking speech, he seems to have a rapport with his carers and gets plenty of positive attention. He is always comfortably attired and clean. He has been a resident of Badgers since it was opened and the current provider is of a high standard. We are kept informed of any problems. During a recent hospitalisation, Badgers staff were exemplary providing support for him and us, his parents. Facilities and food are of a high standard and my son is encouraged in many ways, including freedom to roam if he wants. Staff are always welcoming when we visit. The administration of medication is very well organised in particular. Knowing that there is a fully qualified nurse on every shift is a comfort.

Badgers Lodge is a caring home, my sister is well looked after. The home is kept warm and clean. Residents are well-fed and are offered plenty to drink throughout the day. The management are approachable and deal with any niggles. There are meetings to find out what is going on and they ask our opinions, so improvements can be made, if necessary. They are looking to provide outside entertainment for residents to keep things fresh for everyone. All in all, a good service. As this is a small home, staff are well acquainted with all residents, they know when something is wrong or when they have to call for assistance. Very happy with my sister's care.

Some carers are excellent - but not all. The new manager is doing an amazing job trying to turn things around. There is very little interaction with most of the residents. I do believe they are understaffed and the most willing carers are pushed to the limit.

The staff treat resdients and care at all times. I feel like the staff are capable of performing to their roles well. The staff listen to and act upon concerns regarding my family. Badgers is very clean, and prepare meals according to the residents individual care plans

My daughter has settled in well. We have received all the care and attention required. We have been made very welcome with nothing being a problem. We are very pleased with all aspects of the help, assistance and service provided. Thank you.

I am immensely impressed with Badgers Care Home during the time I have spent here. The entrance is secure and staff check who you are before entering. The home is clean, tidy and well-kept throughout, with personalised belongings for each resident in bedrooms to make it feel homely. Staff are friendly and kind, interacting with each patient according to their needs and treating residents like extended family. Facilities include a large lounge, activities room, sensory room and large garden to enable all residents to be catered for holistically and therapeutically. There is no lack of equipment to enable comfortable care for residents, with wheelchairs, ceiling hoists and slings, electric adjustable beds and chairs for each individual. The food is homemade by the cooks with each individual dietary needs catered for, including soft and cultural diet needs. The care I have seen provided is safe, patient-centred and carried out in a timely and effective way.

During my time at Badgers Lodge Care Home, I have received a lot of support from the staff and manager here. This home has a lot of facilities to provide for the service users, such as the sensory room, activity room and communal areas for all the residents. The home is very comfortable and has a lovely atmosphere to it. Activities are held for all the service users each day and they are treated with a high quality of care from staff. It is a safe and secure home for residents who live here with the use of a sign-in and out book and doors that remain locked.

The home has improved enormously in recent months. The home has been redecorated in some areas and has new flooring in the lounge and corridor. The staff are very helpful and friendly making sure my sister is well cared for. They also make sure I am greeted by name and offered a drink within minutes of arriving. A special bed was required for my sister and this was ordered and received in one week.
