Care UK’s Field Lodge care home in St Ives, Cambridgeshire has been rated Good in all categories by the CQC.

The care home, which provides residential and nursing care for up to 72 people, was inspected by the regulator on 16 February.

Linda Martinez, home manager at Field Lodge, said: “It’s fantastic to read the positive feedback from the CQC inspectors. It’s a true testament to the team’s passion and devotion to providing the highest standard of care to ensure residents live truly fulling lives.

“I would like to express my sincere thanks to everyone at Field Lodge for their commitment, especially over the past few years. I appreciate all they do on a daily basis because they make our care home such a wonderful place for all of the residents to live and such a great place to work.

“I’m looking forward to celebrating this result with the residents and the team and building on our success in the future.”

The team was commended for the care they gave, and people’s views were sought through regular meetings and via questionnaires. Relatives were complimentary about the care home, one said: “Extremely well cared for. It is the caring nature of such young carers, who are extremely dedicated and who are very fond of my [family member]. That much is obvious.”

The home manager was commended for her helpfulness and providing weekly updates via email and informing relatives of activities that are available to the residents. Relatives were complimentary about the manager and said: “I have spoken to her on a couple of occasions and found her very helpful and willing to give us a time to speak to her.”
