Care Home Owned by RDCP Care in Powys

& have adapted to Mom's needs very quickly. They are receptive to family requests & encourage family input to ensure Mom receives the best care possible. The staff are all permanent, which is extremely beneficial in providing continuing good care for Mom & others & it is very reassuring for relatives to see the same friendly faces when visiting. As a family, we love joining in the activities with Mom & we are also able to join Mom on trips out. It is obvious that St Nich's is a well run establishment with all staff carrying out their varied roles with professionalism & sensitivity. In an ideal world, Mom would still be at home, but St Nichs is the next best thing.

we had found a community where she would be cherished and well cared for. It was lovely that the carers shared her enjoyment of wearing her nice clothes and colour co-ordination and the incredible laundry team kept her clothes looking great. The communication from St Nicks, in particular from the nursing team, was excellent. Every change in needs was discussed with the family and the experience of the whole care team in caring for elderly residents with complex needs was very clear. We can see that mum had developed a rapport with the care and nursing team and I felt the same - I will miss my visits and chats with a couple of the staff members and the nurses and carers. Thank you.

a short time Mum became really fond of all the staff working with her. Mum's needs are complex - she has bowel cancer and needs a low residue diet and once everyone understood what that looked like in practice, she was able to have tasty meals.
There are varied daily activities which you can join in with and which Mum thoroughly enjoyed.
However good a team is they can't function fully without good leadership. St Nicholas is very very well led. The ethos, values and committment of all are clear as soon as you enter the building.

and person-centred environment where the best is brought from individuals. Thank you for your wonderful care.

stars all around!

staff are patient and have such a good understanding of dementia and how it affects the patient as well as the family.
I can't recommend St Nicholas House enough.

staff, as well as the manager, deputy and receptionist, have been amazing at helping to settle in Mum and welcoming in family members and visitors; we’re all very grateful.

either cleared up or got a lot smaller. Mum really enjoys the food and having her hair done by a visiting hairdresser each week. The activities coordinator is wonderful and painted Mum's nails as part of a pamper morning; Mum has never had her nails painted, ever! Activities take place every day. Mum doesn't always want to get out of bed, but the staff are good at trying to encourage her to get out. I can't fault St Nicholas House or the care my mum receives.

just fab - something on offer nearly every day of the week. We feel very strongly that our views and wishes are listened to. The manager does a very good job of leading her team. It is s compliment to the staff that they attend many of the resident's activities during their own time.
The best care home in our locality.

The manager is very friendly.

We are very pleased with Nan’s care.
