in which to eat them.

The home is imaculate, staff are very approachable and caring towards residents. When I have had any concerns the issues have been dealth with satisfactorily. Visitors to my father are always very impressed & say 'I would like to live here'. I am very pleased with the freedom & autonomy residents are
allowed. It was perfect that Halsey House provided food & drink and a room for Dads birthday party & he was able to invite his friends & relatives.

Mum went to Halsey for 3 weeks of respite.


All of our dealings with the staff leading up to mum going in and when she was there, were really good.


She has since told me she wouldn't hesitate to go back for more respite another time, or if the situation should arise that she needs full time care,

she has said Halsey House is where she would like to go.

My mother came for 2 weeks respite and is now going to stay. The staff have been incredibly kind and patient even though she can be tricky at times. The food is delicious and she is eating well. She loves the "restaurant" and eating with others. I have been emailed by a member staff to try and tailor
make some activities for her to join in with. A wonderful care home all round.

Reply from Susan Knight, Registered Manager at Mais House

Good morning. Thank you very much for the fantastic review of Mais House and our team.

My wonderful husband was cared for by the Team at Halsey House. He passed away peacefully with me present. The staff were sensitive and caring. I was treated with the utmost respect. They made sure my most treasured man was comfortable until the end. I can not thank them enough for how they looked after
me, making sure I ate, giving me access to a shower, and comforting me through the day and evening. A few tears were shed by the professional staff, which goes to show how much they care.

Lister House

from K E (Daughter of Resident) published on 19 June 2025
Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

Lister House was a very happy home for my Mum for the last 16 months of her life. I expect, like lots of people, she was reluctant to give up her own home and move into a care home. But from day one, the staff at Lister House made the transition easy. After living on her own, Mum felt comforted
knowing there was company whenever she needed it, whether that be carers or other residents. Mum enjoyed the food and I felt it was a significant factor in her wellbeing. The activities were varied and fun - Mum used to say that LH loved an excuse for a party or get-together! Mum lived on the Residential Unit and the staff were brilliant - their care, compassion and kindness was exceptional. Mum loved chatting with them and would often say that the staff were her second family. Mum died in April 2025. The support given to me during Mum's time at LH was very good but the care and support I received in the last few weeks was exceptional. Thank you to everyone for everything you did.

On arrival at Maurice House my father showed little or no interest with his surroundings or the wonderful social events that the home was offering. Roll on a few months, he loves living there, he has gained weight and looks amazing. He celebrated his 98th birthday recently and now joins in many of the
social events and has been on day trips. I cannot express enough my deep gratitude to all the staff and volunteers who go above and beyond what I would have expected.

My mum is on Nursing at Galanos. She receives excellent care from the whole staff team who are also very welcoming to us as her family. We were able to enjoy a lovely birthday celebration with mum though the standard of consideration is not reserved just for special occasions. I am particularly impressed
by the open, receptive way that staff respond to concerns and questions which fits with the values of the care home. I also really appreciate the attention paid by staff to the small but crucial acts of personal care

If there are any issues they are minor and very quickly resolved. The staff are professional whilst at the same time friendly and approachable. The volunteers are absolutely wonderful, kind-hearted people. The accommodation is superb, each room reflects its residents character and each one is very
personal. There are regular outings for those willing and able and plenty of 'indoors' entertainment. There's always a sense of well-being.

My father has been living in the residential wing at Galanos for almost three years, and I'm extremely happy with the care he receives. He enjoys and actively participates in many of the activities on offer and even contributes to life at the home in his own way. To him, Galanos feels like one big family-from
the management team to the care staff and fellow residents-and he has received meaningful support from that family in many different ways. I am deeply grateful for the support from the staff in looking after him - thank you very much.

Thank you for making Dad's first impressions so positive! I was so impressed that, having dropped his TV off at Reception at around 10am, that it was already PAT tested and set up to work in his room by the time he arrived, 2 hours later.
Similarly, he mentioned he had been overwhelmed by how he
was received when he arrived.

Ever since my mum arrived at Galanos in August 2024 the staff have been amazing and to this day they continue to be amazing and do a great job looking after everyone in the care home. I really can't thank them enough for everything they do and have done for my mum. My Father was also a resident at Galanos
in 2018 and I am very grateful for all the love care and the support of the staff and management. I must also say about the volunteerers they do a fantastic job as well and deserve a lot of praise for giving up there time to help others. My mum is well looked after and treated so well by everyone. Every chance we get we all should try and donate something to this wonderful care home. Thank you very much to everyone that makes Galanos house very special for my mum and I know that my mum is truly grateful and appreciates everything that every member of staff, management and volunteerers do for her. So a masssive thank you from my heart to you all.
