Overall Experience

I can only speak from my experience of observing. My sister is in the care home not me. I know that she is cared for, kindly and compassionately. All the carers I have met have been caring, cheerful and I can even say loving towards my sister, and very patient. I took my time to ensure that Bradbury

Grange was the best home we encountered.

Overall Experience

Cannot fault the care, staff that my mother receives
All the staff that my wife and I have contact with are professional, friendly and sympathetic to my mother's needs.
This is across all the team from management to the the carers and domestic staff
The laundry team do a great job, returning the

clothes quickly and very clean.
The carers take time to talk to my mother who can get a little upset sometimes.
They quickly jump on any health issues and listen to our concerns if we have any.
The catering is very good and needs to be commended
We can approach senior staff if we need to but seeing them nearly every time we visit puts our minds at rest that mum is being well looked after.
She insists on regular visits to the hairdresser, and why not.
The atmosphere is first class and we are encouraged to take our dogs into the home and the team appear to enjoy this more than our dogs
Overall we are happy and believe we have a super relationship with everyone there

Overall Experience

I received a wonderful welcome to the home, with attention and consideration to every detail.
The staff were very professional and efficient in dealing with all requests.
The well-being of all is paramount and it is a home with much tender loving care.
All staff appear to be full of much kindness

to residents and visitors.
In many cases, the resident has to give up their home, creature comforts and things they know and love, which is a bereavement in itself, therefore, this condition receives much care until the resident has settled down.
There is always someone available to give help, direction and guidance.
It is wonderful for a loved one to say, at last, I feel safe! I am contented and well cared for.
Staff go the extra mile to spread happiness.
The church services, led by the Chaplain and other ministers, are a great help and enjoyed by those who attend.
Entertainment provided is varied, and suited to the needs of those partaking; there is much laughter and enjoyment.

Overall Experience

Considering Mum's age and health condition, she doing well and seems settled now.
Very homely atmosphere, staff, residents and visitors make it so (based on recent visits) a little sadness sometimes, but overall joyous, upbeat atmosphere.
Nice environment, nice, caring attentive staff, visitors made

very welcome, nice food. Facilities and materials, interesting books to browse through, objects, therapy objects to focus on and enjoy.
My mum had 1 to 1 singing therapy, also group therapy takes place in the main living area with all residents.
A trip to the local museum next week. All reassuring.

Overall Experience

I visit my partner three to four times weekly. I am always treated with kindness, consideration and respect. The same is true for my partner, who has multiple needs and many mood swings which are all taken into careful consideration in the way she is being looked after. Staff team work incredibly hard,

but they have a positive attitude and are well supported by management. I have visited a number of care homes, this is the best!

Reply from Kim Saint, Home Manager at Bradbury Grange

It’s a pleasure to welcome you and everybody else who visits the home, either to look around, volunteer or visit loved ones. Thank you for your kind words.

Overall Experience

My mum has been a resident now for three months at Bradbury Grange and moving from her own home to residential care closer to me has been a hard transition for her and all the staff have been very supportive, kind and friendly to both her and myself.
I am really pleased with how well Mum is now putting

on weight, she really enjoys the food and looks 100% healthier.
The caretaker has been great in assisting to personalise her room so that she has familiar surroundings including a very large plant!
This move has given me such peace of mind knowing that my mum is safe and secure and very well supported and cared for by all the staff. I thoroughly recommend Bradbury Grange.

Reply from Kim Saint, Home Manager at Bradbury Grange

Thank you for your lovely review. We are grateful for the kind words given and these will be shared with the team, which supports them to know that the job they do is very worthwhile.

My mum has been in Bradbury Grange for over three years now. It feels homely when you walk around, which is the reason for choosing this particular home. The staff are caring and attentive and the residents seem happy. It has also improved recently with more staff being employed.

I cannot speak highly enough of all of the staff at Bradbury Grange. Over the last seven months, I have watched the staff and been highly impressed and grateful that they care for the residents. There is a strong sense of family caring, which resonates throughout the home and makes it a happy place

to live. A big thank you to everyone who works or volunteers at Bradbury Grange!

Reply from Kim Saint, Home Manager at Bradbury Grange

Thank you so much for your kind words. We do try to make everyone feel welcome at Bradbury Grange and know that it can be difficult to come to terms with life in a care home for both the people who live here and the people who visit, so a friendly and welcoming home is what we offer.

My friend was only at Bradbury Grange for a very short period, but the staff were very kind and attentive. They did everything to make her comfortable and content. The staff especially, went out of their way to provide her with a radio station through a tv, when modern DAB outlets failed. I would not

hesitate to recommend Bradbury Grange.

Overall Experience

My father has been a resident here for the last six months. His transition from home life to being in a residential establishment was not easy, but was very well facilitated by the kind, friendly and helpful staff. Since being there he looks 100% better and although still settling in, I am confident

that I have no worries regarding his care. My only quibble and this is petty, but it would be nice to see some more plants around, as I do believe 'greenery' can have a lovely soothing effect. Maybe the residents, if they were up to it, could participate in their care.

My mother moved into Bradbury Grange following a lengthy stay in hospital. Unfortuablet she was only there for just over 2 months so didn't really have time to settle in but the care she received during this time was exemplary. I was very impressed by the sensitivity and kindness shown during her last

few days. I would highly recommend this home.
