Care Home Owned by Abbey Total Care Group Ltd in Essex

challenging, staff have been very supportive of us as a family and responsive to the challenges we have faced in coping with this. The Activity team have been exceptional in creating activities to stimulate her and to tap into memories from the past. We extend our thanks to everyone for her ongoing care.

its course but the party awakened something in my father and it was so moving to see him laughing and singing. A magic time to have my dad back. Well done Forrest Place for all your continuing care.

elderly friend is there. And the nurses are just as caring as the carer staff it's such a lovely care home.

any problems that arise and discuss with us the options. The food is very good and the rooms are always kept clean.

very friendly polite and reassuring. Yes, I have a couple of favourites.

Forest Place to anyone.

photos on the days I cannot visit.
There are quarterly relatives meetings, plus they arrange some nice social events and celebrations. There was a lovely Xmas party and on Easter Sunday everyone got a visit from the Easter bunny and a chocolate egg.
My only criticisms would be: daily entertainment activities have decreased on my father's floor due to a staffing vacancy but my father's ill health means he cannot take part now, my father doesn't always enjoy the food but he is a fussy eater, and there seemed to be an influx of new, less experienced care staff on my father's floor all at once before Xmas so it's taken time to get used to them all.

am happy that my mum is in this place.

yoghurt or on-the-bone chicken or lamb curry with naan bread, salmon roasted with vegetables and mashed potato, some omelette with toast, just a few meals a week. Apart from that, the food standard is exceptional and very nicely cooked. All staff are very helpful, all management is amazing.

The staff are so helpful and very cheerful. He is a resident on one unit in particular, they have all done a routine providing excellent care with compassion. Staff team are friendly, always smiling, offer myself and other visitors drinks, spend time discussing any concerns with me too. Well done - thank you.

The food has been very good, and the staff have tried to make sure my father's gluten-free diet is catered for - he is now finally putting on a little weight. Unfortunately, we have had some problems with the room and the facilities, which has been frustrating, but after speaking with the manager, they have finally been sorted out. The home would benefit from having more nurses and carers available.
