The Lindsay Care Home

We love visiting this home with our birds of prey, the staff are welcoming, the home is always clean and the residents are always happy and cheerful, we have been visiing care homes for over 20 years and Lindsay Care Home is one of the very best. The staff are great with the residents, we have seen the residents ask for something from them and they don't hesitate in getting it straight away. The relationship between staff and the residents is second to none and lovely to see. Anyone thinking of sending a loved one to this home, look no further. Nothing short of superb *****

I attend The Lindsay regularly as an entertainer and always find the staff friendly, thoughtful and conscious of their residents needs. It is a very warm, welcoming environment.

5 Year Review 2019-2025. My mum was moved to The Lindsay after a number of falls in her flat and a stay in hospital. She survived Covid here and lived here for over 5 years until her death aged 98. Whenever my husband and I visited, we experienced a friendly welcome and there was excellent security both in and out of the building. A RN was on duty at all times and regular checks were made whilst respecting our valuable time visiting mum. The facilities and activities on offer were very good. The corridors are well lit and the garden is lovely for residents, family and friends to sit out in. The cafe offers a lovely break from a resident's room. The staff there were caring, personable, professional and took a real interest in mum's life stories. Hairdressing and laundry services were very good. She was ably supported emotionally, mentally and physically throughout her stay for which we are very appreciative. The Lindsay however is not cheap and proved a huge drain on mum's financial resources during her time there. For the fees paid, we feel more staff should have been employed, as at times, the care home appeared understaffed of carers. Whilst accepting the challenges that Covid presented, we noticed a considerable turnover of staff, including several management changes. The recent renovations and upgrade of the garden in the summertime seemed unnecessary at that time of the year, as it deprived residents of valuable outdoor time in the good weather. The food, on the whole, was satisfactory. Overall, we were more than satisfied with the care and attention that my mum received during her time here.

I went today to the Lyndsay to visit my mum. They had a fete great singers lovely food the whole ambience of the place was really beautiful. I'd like to thank all the staff gorgeous grant especially John because he has allways walked another mile for my mum. All the staff were so good 👍. Now? Here's the big question? When can I move in!. What a lovely beautiful day was had by all. I didn't want to leave. Sending love and great big hugs

The EMA team were at this wonderful care home, where one of their residents was getting transferred from hospital, using our care home transport services. A big thank you to the staff who were great and what a lovely setting it is in.
