My nan had a TIA. All the staff were all supportive, and I couldn't suggest any improvement in her care. I even complimented all the staff for their help and support in the difficult time. If anyone is looking to put their relative in a care home, you are not making a wrong decision by putting your
loved one here!

Dorset House has met all our expectations, and we are confident and happy to entrust our ageing father's needs and welfare to the dedicated professional staff, who are an amazing cheerfully friendly team. Dad has grown his confidence back since arriving at Dorset House, and also his waistline with the

Alexandra House have cared for my mum for the past 5 years. Mum has advanced Alzheimer's and it has been awful for us as a family watching her become a shadow of her former self.
The staff at Alexandra Hse have been amazing, the care and love they show my mum is such a comfort when we are not there.
We have known two Home managers since our time with Caresouth and both have been supportive and caring when dealing with queries and managing mums various health issues. Special mention to Vanessa who is an absolute credit to Caresouth, always there for the residents with a smile and a hug, professional and supportive to families helping both residents and their relatives navigate this heartbreaking disease.
Caresouth provide exceptional care, I would not hesitate to recommend them to others starting this journey.
Reply from Rachel Wood, Head of Customer Relations at Alexandra HouseThank you for your heartfelt review. We're truly grateful for your kind words and for trusting us with your mum's care over the years. It means a great deal to know our team has provided comfort and support during such a difficult time.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Mum moved into Elizabeth House in January for respite care, but she loves it so much she would now like to stay permanently. The change in her has been transformational - she is happier than we have seen her in a long time and has really come out of herself.


When she was living alone, she was lonely,

depressed, and often confused. Since moving into Elizabeth House, she has completely flourished. The staff have been absolutely amazing, the atmosphere is always warm and welcoming, and most importantly, Mum is very happy there.
Reply from Rachel Wood, Head of Customer Relations at Elizabeth HouseThank you so much for sharing this, it's truly heart warming to read.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My friend moved to TV last November, as her husband had been living there for more than four years.
She always spoke highly of all the staff and couldn't be happier with the care her husband was receiving, so it was just natural for her to move to TV when she needed to. It was like home from home.
My
friend passed away recently. My friend had a good quality of life in her last months. The Care Team at TV didn't just provide physical comfort to her, they also ensured she was emotionally well.
All the time, my friend lived at TV she was treated with dignity and respect, knowing her husband would continue to be treated the same way.
Reply from Rachel Wood, Head of Customer Relations at Talbot ViewThank you for sharing such a heartfelt tribute.

My friend seems contented at Talbot View. The extremely kind staff are patient in their dealings with a man who has dementia, and was in normal life an independent spirit. He delights in the home's gardens, and he loves the food. The music played in the hallway is of one type only,and sadly doesn't
fit with the taste of all residents. My friend was a professional musician and teacher, and likes mid 20th Century jazz and classical music. The laundry can be disappointing, but considering the demands made on it, it's hardly surprising. Talbot View is a very good place to be if you need care.

We're delighted to hear your friend is enjoying the gardens, food, and the care provided by our team.

This was truly the best place for my friend Ann to have spent her last 4 years, couldn't have asked for better care. Always greeted with a friendly smile and polite attitude nothing is ever too much trouble. The place is kept extremely clean and well maintained. Ann became an Alexandra House family
member fitting in straight away, Ann had dietary issues and the chef went above and beyond trying to find foods Ann could eat. Alexandra House wouldn't be the kind, caring place it is if it wasn't for all of the people that work there, they fill it with love and compassion..I'm truly thankful that Ann had 4 wonderful years there until her passing in February..
Reply from Rachel Wood, Head of Customer Relations at Alexandra HouseThank you so much for your incredibly kind and heartfelt words. It truly means a great deal to all of us.

We feel very privileged to have been part of your friend's life over those years, and we're so glad she felt at home here with us. Your recognition of our team's care, kindness, and dedication, as well as the effort our chef made to support her dietary needs will mean so much to everyone.

She will always be remembered as a valued member of our Alexandra House family, and we are deeply grateful for the trust placed in us. Thank you again for taking the time to share such a meaningful review.
