Care Homes Owned by Select Healthcare in Kent

her yesterday, she did have them in, but they weren't switched on. Another small gripe is that some of her clothes go missing only for us to see other residents wearing them, even though her name and room number is inside the garments/shoes.

called the Drunken Duck and if somebody wants a glass of wine or beer they can have it. My mum doesn't have dementia, but the home is mixed and everybody gets used to it and help each other. Best care home I could have hoped for - and I saw a few before I decided this was best. Mum loves it and I know staff are loving mum as she's a feisty old bird that will give them a run for money. I'm saving up for a room - it's really good.

much trouble. Even to the extent of accommodating Mum with her particular likes and dislikes, e.g. brown bread, fresh fruit etc! Riverlea House is in a lovely location, nestled in the very picturesque village of River with a garden backing onto the River Dour. I cannot recommend it highly enough.

mum soon felt the same. All of the staff are warm and friendly, and the care is second to none. There is always so much going on - music, dancing, singing, art, visits to interesting places. This spring they had baby ducks hatch in the home and mum got to gently hold one. Mum loved the food but best of all she loved the carers. We could visit at any time and were always involved in decisions regarding mum's care. Sadly my mum has just passed away and the Wantsum family have shared in our grief and are supporting us at this very difficult time. I cannot recommend Wantsum Lodge highly enough for their care, support and love, for both their residents and their families. A truly 5 star home.

and appealing - from bingo, craft, sinagalongs with live music to following duck eggs as they hatch, watching the ducklings grow. There is always a happy, fun atmosphere with residents and visitors included.The staff respect the family's wishes and involved us in decisions about all aspects of Mum's care. Every member of staff goes out of their way to provide the best care - the carers, cleaning, catering, management and maintenance. It is incredible that so wonderful people are assembled in one place. We could not have wished for better care for Mum.

her.
Her room is lovely and I've been invited to join in with activities if visiting at the time.
Offered a cuppa if the tea trolleys doing the rounds.
It's as near to home as you could find in a care setting.
Thank you for everything you do for mum! Keep up the great work.

our case recently described Riverlea as the best care home he has seen since Covid.
The staff are welcoming, creating a true sense of community within a safe and nurturing environment. There are a range of activities and events. Food and drink are plentiful.
Moving my mum to Riverlea last year was the best decision we could have made. I'm truly grateful for the care provided and highly recommend.

as he is unable to walk and has limited coordination. He also has diabetes and gets tested twice a day and is given insulin based on the test results, along with various other medications prescribed by his doctors, He gets constant care and attention, his room is cleaned daily, and meals, snacks, and drinks are provided. I have witnessed this in person during visits and on video calls. He is very happy with the care home, the staff, and the services provided. He does not participate very much in activities, due to his condition and that some activities do not interest him.

afternoon having a Christmas lunch which was absolutely lovely. If Mum has health issues, I am contacted immediately. Overall, I feel Mum is safe and well cared for.

activities never cease to amaze me, from balloon tennis to Guinea pig petting. Live music, pottery, painting and always a party atmosphere. The food is fantastic with a lovely dining area. I would highly recommend Wantsum Lodge my mother is extremely happy there and I am comforted to know she is receiving the best care.
