The staff are always friendly and helpful. They look after my father with care and concern and treat him as an individual. His likes and dislikes are considered. If the family have any problems concerning his care, these are addressed and sorted out speedily. Father is content and happy, well looked after and safe.

Review of Galsworthy House Care Home with Nursing, Kingston upon Thames, London by Ruth S (Wife of Resident)

Friday 19 October 2012

The staff are very kind but there are not enough of them. It is a very comfortable home and my husband, who has dementia is reasonably content there. I visit for four to five hours each day, as he feels lonely if I do not. It could easily be prefect if there were more staff, as it is one carer per four patients.

Monday 28 May 2012

The care love and attention is first class. All the residents have different needs and these are all looked after with a lot of patience and kindness. All the staff cannot be faulted. That is matron, nurses, carers, cleaners, the kitchen, laundry, reception and maintenance. As a regular visitor it is so nice to be greeted with a warm welcome. My mother could not be in a better home.
