Care Homes Owned by Maria Mallaband Care Group Ltd in Tyne & Wear

Mam has been in Garden Hill for one month. She has settled with no problems. The home is clean. The staff are very professional, caring and patient. The facilities are very good, with activities on for the residents both morning and afternoon. The meals are good and mams' dieary needs are catered for.

I am writing a very positive review. I was a close friend to a resident. The resident received very good nursing care from all staff (Care workers, Nursing staff and Management) The atmosphere in Barnes Court Care Centre is extremely good and the whole building is very welcoming. The word professional springs to mind when thinking about my friends care and support during his time at Barnes Court.

My brother is well looked after and the staff, all his needs are met

The events team are amazing! There is always something on to keep the residents happy and busy. The recent event with a music group was fantastic, my dad loved every minute.

Over all care is excellent and high standard.

Rooms a little small and single beds, with a leaking toilet which we kept reporting but no action taken. Home could do with decor update and access to garden through small conservatory difficult especially if someone using area. Front area has sitting chairs & tables but on grass so unsteady for zimmer users. Lots of other more modern & bright homes in area costing less. Assisted activities very inappropriate for some residents.

Thank you Earsdon.

My mum has been at Garden Hill for 18 months and has settled well. All carers and all other staff show great respect and give excellent care. A very 'homely' home from home.

great manager of this home really helpful and caring. Staff are very friendly.

I love where my room is situated, management is great, staff are willing to help.

The staff are always approachable, helpful and friendly. They all know my mam, what helps to make her feel safe, cared for and happy. The events staff keep the positive energy up and my mam loves getting involved in the activities.

Compared to last year in assisted living, mam is clean, always dressed, smiling, and not so depressed, so you've done a great job.

The pressure on me was removed within a week.

The 'Resident of the day' idea is good. One day a month for special attention.

Thanks everyone for taking good care of her.

The opportunity to attend activities and events is very good. The entertainment person (Sarah) is berry good and attentive. Overall good.

My sister Dawn and I come in quite often and have the best laughs in here, staff and residents are hilarious sometimes. Mum loves dancing, music, and socialising with the residents and she is very happy here. My mum does love a lot of the activities, depending on what it is.

It is amazing to see how our mam has settled and is allowed to be herself, which is a testament to all the staff's hard work. We have all been welcomed into the Earsdon Grange family. Thank you.

The staff are caring and attentive. I appreciate that they acknowledge and respond to my mother's interests and wishes. Any requests (/and repairs) are dealt with quickly and efficiently. I also like that I can tell there is always an effort to improve things in the care home rather than simply maintain the status quo. Overall, I am impressed with Barnes Court Care Centre and recommend it when people ask about the place.

Happy home.
