Reviews for Corrina Lodge Care Home

I absolutely love everything about this home. It is warm, welcoming and homely with the most amazing team of staff always at hand helping the residents and providing the best care and service. I run music and movement sessions with the residents and they are always so happy. I couldn't recommend Corrina Lodge enough.

Mum has been at Corrina Lodge for over a year, and we (children) are so happy and relieved she was able to move there. Since arriving her condition (Alzheimer's) has sadly deteriorated, but she has been respected and well cared for at all times. The facility is fresh and clean, the staff are the most caring we could imagine and the activities and social life are in abundance! We couldn't have wished her to be anywhere better, and we know she's safe and well cared for. I'd be very happy to live there! Thank you Corrina Lodge team!

We had the pleasure of performing a Christmas panto show for the residents here, and it was an absolute joy! The atmosphere was fantastic, with the residents happily joining in with plenty of singing and clapping. The home itself was beautifully kept—lovely and clean. A special mention goes to Sharron, the activities coordinator, who was absolutely wonderful, as well as the rest of the staff, who were so friendly and cheerful. Thank you for having us!

"I'm very pleased with Corrina Lodge. My father really likes living here, All of the staff are very professional and nothing is too much trouble. The food is exellent and he looks forward to meal times. There is always some activities going on if he wants to join in. Very happy with his care."

"Corrina Lodge provided excellent End of Life care for my elderly uncle. After an extended stay in hospital, Corrina Lodge was like a peaceful retreat and a much more appropriate setting for someone with an aggressive, terminal cancer. My uncle had a lovely, downstairs room with a view of the gardens. Staff liaised well with the GP and palliative care team and my uncle had access to morphine etc when appropriate. The Deputy Manager/Matron understood the urgency of the placement and had my uncle visited in hospital, assessed and transferred to the home within 48 hrs! Food seemed nutritious and comforting and tea/coffee is frequently offered to residents. Finally, our family were exhaused after visiting hospital most days for over 3 months and to be able to come & visit a relative in such a tranquil setting was such a relief to us. Relatives can help themselves to tea/coffee and parking is easy. Staff are always friendly and visiting an ailing family member is made a calm experience."

"We are very happy for our daughter to go the lovely home. The staff are all very caring and very conscientious with complete attention to detail. Our daughter has to have extra care which can give a lot more work to the staff but they never complain. The home is always lovely and clean and everything is provided for her care."

"When I first visited Corrina Lodge I was very warmly welcomed and shown where I could access coffee and cake. Having seen my stepmother, I also saw the lunch arrangements. Today, I was lucky enough to witness first-hand the afternoon activities involving music and quizzes. The organiser was bright and bubbly and involved all the residents, who obviously adored her. It was joyous seeing the resident's reactions and obvious appreciation. Although my stepmother did not engage at the end, the lady stoked her hand kindly. What a delight to see and of the care being offered."

"My daughter has been a resident of Barchester Corrina Lodge for ten years. As a family, we feel lucky that we found this home. Choosing a care home for a loved one is very daunting but we soon realised that Corrina is a family of staff who cares about their residents. They are treated with respect, dignity and humour. Many of the staff who greeted us then are still working at Corrina now which tells its own story. All the staff are friendly and approachable, they cheer me up, I can't fault them. Always there to help and assist, my daughter is well cared for and above all, she is happy. Should I need to speak to our manager, his door is always open."

"I am very impressed with Corrina Lodge Care Home. You get a very warm welcome when you enter the home and there is a friendly and relaxed atmosphere. The rooms are very cosy and have everything to make life comfortable. I visit a dear family friend who is very content and happy. The staff are very helpful and nothing is too much trouble. Entertainment is very good and varied to suit everyone. My friend tells me the meals are excellent and she enjoys her meals. I've visited many local care homes and Corrins Lodge is the best by far."

"On arrival, greeted warmingly and invited to have a refreshment. My mother was comfortable sitting in her chair. All staff were friendly, kind and polite. The staff were attentive and communicative. Her room is comfortable with a door opening out into a garden. Food was varied and nutritious. Mum has been in Corrina Lodge for about 2 years. Since then I have made friends with several staff members. They all work very hard and do what they can to make my mother comfortable. The only downside is Mum's room is a little smelly, the carpet is due to be changed soon."

"I have nothing but gratitude and kind words to describe my feelings covering how the marvellous management and staff cared for my mother in the year or so that she was a resident. If it was possible to give a rating of 11 out of 10, I would."

"I've not been here very long but I can honestly say I have been treated with respect by all the staff, for which I say a massive thank you for allowing myself to be able to keep my dignity. If there are new ladies and gentlemen coming here then they will truly love it here."

"My husband has been at Corrina Lodge Care Home for sixteen months. He requires nursing care and has always been treated with the utmost respect and dignity. The care is professional and consistent, with all aspects of medical requirements constantly monitored and updated. One of the comforting aspects is that care staff turnover is minimal, which is very important for the wellbeing of the patients. This home is a caring, efficient unit with management encouraging that standards are maintained."

"When an elderly friend needed two weeks of respite care after an operation, Corrina Lodge was the perfect solution. Despite arrangements needing to be made at short notice, they were able to sort out accommodation very quickly and the transition from hospital to the home was done smoothly and efficiently. The room was lovely, with access to the garden and very nicely furnished. The staff couldn't have been more friendly and helpful. The manager, admin staff, and nursing staff were always welcoming, caring and quick to respond. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Corrina Lodge to anyone."

"My auntie went to stay at Corrina Lodge for two weeks of respite care. She was treated extremely well, like part of an extended family. Nothing was too much trouble for the staff. My auntie was treated with the utmost dignity and respect. The staff were always polite and cheerful and even knew each resident by name. The chef organised for us all to share a delicious three-course meal in the conservatory. We would recommend Corrina Lodge."

"Our late father spent the last 12 months of his time with us at Corina Lodge following a deterioration in his health. The home provided him with a safe and comfortable environment and, most importantly, access to 24-hour nursing care. We were kept well-informed throughout by the home and as a family, we are immensely grateful for the first-class care he received."

"They dealt with my request to have my dad brought in for urgent respite care with dignity and respect. They made me feel (in a very emotional and fraught time) welcome and that Dad was welcome too. Dad has settled in well and is enjoying the excellent food served by inventive and well-balanced dishes. The nursing care is unbelievably wonderful with caring and kind staff at all levels. My dad is quite an introvert but he has become more involved in the activities provided by Corrina Lodge - but he loves the observatory where he can read and watch the birds in the garden in relative peace and quiet. All in all an excellently run care home with kind caring staff who always seem to be smiling. I'm very pleased that I managed to get my dad into Corrina Lodge."

"My mother has been at Corrina Lodge for one month and she has settled in really well, we are so happy that Mum has been given the opportunity to make this her home. The staff are amazing, so friendly and made the transition for our family as seamless and easy as possible. My mother is happy and is given as much attention or privacy as she wants. It is such a lovely feeling to know how much my mother is being cared for 24 hours a day. There are so many activities and events at the care home and it is totally the residents' choice whether they join in or not. Even activities that family members can join in too, like the toddler group, which my daughter took her children along to and it was great for everyone to enjoy time together. I am always kept informed about my mother, which is so kind and very helpful when this is all a new experience for us. Thank you so much to all the amazing team for your hard work and dedication."

"My mum stayed for ten days in June while myself and my husband were on holiday. This is the second time she has stayed, and she thoroughly enjoys her time at Corrina Lodge. She likes having the residents to talk to, and all the staff are so kind, helpful and professional. She feels totally safe when she is there. She has the newspaper every day and has her hair done - she says it is like home from home. The food is excellent, and she always tells everyone. I would recommend Corrina Lodge to anyone who has a much-loved relative that needs to stay. Thank you to all the staff."

"I wish to give Corrina Lodge in Camberley a 5 star review purley on the dedication and compassion the staff played in the last 9 years of my mothers life ( Rosalind Moore ) All the nursing staff, the aids, caregivers and activities staff made my mother feel loved and so well cared for. My mother passed at 103 years and she had no family members left in the UK. To everyone at Corrina Lodge I owe a huge amount of gratitude for all the love and care you showed towards my mother. Thank you. Terry Moore."

"My family and I are pleased with the care and attention my mother has received since moving into Barchester Corrina Lodge Care Home recently. The staff are so friendly and caring of all their residents and show much concern for family members at the difficult time of handing over care of a much-loved family member. Food, facilities and activities are amazing and the whole family enjoyed the recent teddy bears' picnic. A big thank you to every member of staff."

"My mum joined Barchester Corrina Lodge Care Home in November. I looked at a number of nursing homes and so pleased we chose Corrina Lodge. The manager and nursing staff always have time to speak with you and keep you updated on your loved one. All the staff are lovely, kind and caring. The activities team work hard on keeping the residents busy. It is also nice to walk in, have a cup of tea and piece of cake which is always available to the residents and visitors. Thank you for looking after my mum."

"Finding the right care home for a loved one is always difficult. We had to find one for our father and looked around many in the area. We looked at one called Barchester Corrina Lodge Care Home and we just felt at ease straight away, it felt like a home rather than a glorified hotel or hospital-type setting. We opted for Corrina Lodge and can honestly say we are so pleased we did. The staff are amazing and nothing is too much trouble for them. We felt safe leaving our loved one there knowing they’d be well cared for. On our regular visits, we became friends with many of the staff and it felt like a home from home. Our family was always made to feel welcome and we attended some of the events they held to let families be together there and enjoy an event, like Easter with egg hunts which the kids enjoyed immensely. For anyone looking for a care home for a loved one, I’d really recommend booking a visit to Corrina Lodge and seeing what they have to offer and speaking to some of the amazing staff there."

The staff are very attentive. If my dad called for help, someone is with him in seconds. The medical staff are very persistent in trying to solve my dad's health problems and they work very hard to improve his quality of life. I cannot recommend Barchester Corrina Lodge Care Home enough."

"We were struggling with looking after my mother-in-law at our home, her dementia was making her angry and violent and we, especially me being the primary carer, were struggling. She took an overdose and went to hospital and eventually for a 28-day assessment. We looked at other care homes and none compared to Barchester Corrina Lodge Care Home. The staff are amazing and my mother-in-law is very happy here. The manager and administrator are amazing! Kudos to them as it feels like and actual home there."

"I wanted to thank all at Barchester Corrina Lodge Care Home so much for looking after my dad so well since his admission in July and also, by proxy, my mum for whom I think you are a lifeline. Your care, facilities and entertainment are all so well thought out and caringly provided - there is genuine humanity in your home. And I haven't even mentioned the food (it is delicious)! I came to visit again yesterday and was, once more, made to feel so welcome and included and was so impressed by the professionalism of all your staff and events. The Diwali celebration, visited by the mayor, looked wonderful and I'm sure the bonfire night fireworks will go with a bang! Thank you again and keep on doing what you're doing."

"Our father dreaded the idea of having to go into a home when the hospital told him in February he was being discharged to one as he had a broken leg. But he has said himself he is very lucky to have everything taken care of and was impressed on discovering the standard of interior decoration and comfort. The staff (nursing, care, activities, catering & management) ensure there is a warm and happy atmosphere. Visitors are made very welcome and are encouraged to join in activities, indeed we have volunteered ourselves and willingly chat with other residents in the lounge. We wouldn't want him to be anywhere else."
