The staff were very helpful and friendly and a big shoutout to Carl an asset to the care home. Every time I visited there was plenty of staff on site and spoke to my wife as you would expect with care and politeness.
Would definitely recommend to anyone in the same situation.

We are very happy with the care my mother receives at Carrickstone House Care Home. The staff are very caring and tailor their care to my mother's specific needs. Nothing is ever a bother to them. Any health issues are picked up and treated and monitored very quickly. The management team in particular
the care home manager are very hands on and approachable. A great team.

Since my mam has moved into the grange she has been very well cared for all the staff are very kind with my mam and also I recently had a big birthday (70th) and the kitchen here made me a cake and a lovely buffet tea. It was nice of them to make a fuss of me and a photo was taken of me and my mam and
they printed it which I will cherish forever

Me and my family have been really happy with the care my mum has received, I could not fault the home at all. The staff are all lovely, caring and so helpful. Food is great and plenty of choice. My mums room is always clean and tidy, immaculate infact. The activities team are amazing, keeping everyone
entertained. The facilities are great, the salon and cinema room are an added bonus. We feel very lucky to have our mum a place in this lovely home.

Consistently falling standards and overall poor service in the last 12 months. Food lacks variety and imagination and often residents don't even get what they have ordered certainly in my mother's case. Unprofessional behaviour from some staff members kills the good work by others.Buzzer usage is seen
as a negative against a resident if they use it too many times !!! Cleanliness and infection control needs serious work. Feedback is given regularly to the home but consistency/improvement is never maintained or consistent

Since moving into Silver Mews 3 months ago, my aunt and all her family have been made welcome. The staff are like an extended family or friends to her. She has become to think of Silver Mews as her home. We are really happy with what we have seen. Thank you for all the love and care that you show her.

My Mam,
has never been better since she was admitted into Silver Mews Care Home. She has been there almost a year, and my family are thrilled at the wonderful care she is given on a daily basis. The home is such a lovely place to visit, and is always immaculate. The staff are very friendly, attentive,
and approachable. My Mam likes to watch tv in her room, but she does have the options of activities with the other residents if she wishes. We made such a good choice in choosing this home for her. Our thanks to the manager and her team, would strongly recommend this home. Thanks again.

I felt compelled to write and express my gratitude for the amazing care my mum is receiving at Carrickstone Care Home. The level of attention is amazing. From the surroundings and the staff to the food and the communications - everything is fantastic!
The home is, in my opinion, very well managed,
and the staff are outstanding.
We are delighted and so grateful that our mum is being so well looked after.
My mum is the happiest and most content she has been in years.

My mother seems to be very happy in the home. The carers are really thoughtful and caring. The carers and management have dealt quickly and considerately with any concerns we have had. Regular activities take place, which are enjoyable for both residents family. The home is clean and well looked after.
I can't fault anything.

I visit 3 friends in various care homes in the area and I have to say Carrickstone is by far the most superior. The first impression from the reception staff to the carers and nursing staff is a welcoming and helpful one. As a retired nurse I can not fault anything I have seen. Everyone is treated with
care respect and dignity. Residents are happy and look upon the place as home. Residents and family and friends are kept well informed as to treatments being given. Well done to all staff including cleaning and maintenance on a very well run establishment.

My mother has been in Carrickstone House Care Home since April 2025, she suffers from Alzheimer's and other health issues, home care plan was not adequate to look after my mother at her home address, family and mother agreed that mother needed 24 hour care in a care home. We visited 5 care homes in
the surrounding areas, Carrickstone was far better than anywhere else. Professionalism by all staff is unbeatable, great teamwork, happy staff and very respectful to residents and family and friends, peace of mind. Unfortunately the care home mini bus has not been on the road for many months which was godsend to help residents get out into the public , see different areas and get fresh air, the manager is taking this up with the Lloyd the CEO.On another issue the puddings were taken off the menu at meal times seemingly due to wastage, i informed care home that elderly residents some times need this as they may not be big main meal eaters , they have informed me that the pudding are now offered at a later stage in the day to see if residents are wanting them, but i'm still waiting to see or hear of this happen.Thank you.
Reply from Sandra Carr, Consultant Operations Director at Carrickstone House Care HomeThank you for taking time to complete the review - I have spoken to the home manager and Lloyd and discussed your concerns. Please note that the menus have been reviewed in line with your comments.

Carrickstone is excellent for cleanliness, staff are helpful and food is basic but nutritious and plentiful, my weight has increased. Residents could be doing more communication with staff, but they are all so busy. Entertainment needs to be prompted.

The care home was found for me by my daughters who looked at several other establishments. It has a pleasant outlook (from my room) over the garden which we are unable to use at present, as there is quite a bit of modernisation and improvements going on in the communal sitting room, which leads out
to the garden. It would be lovely to have French Doors leading straight from my room to the garden.

My Mum became a resident of Whitefield Lodge in January 2018. There have been considerable changes throughout the years, in terms of staff, management, owners, decor and not least COVID! However, currently, I'm delighted with the support and care my Mum receives. Staff try to ensure my Mum is well
turned out (most of the time) although their job is not easy. During the years, my Mum's health and mobility have declined, together with her communication skills. I have found the staff to be very patient and kind with her, many have told me that they treat her and other residents, as they would their own grandparent. - What more could you ask for? The fact that my Mum has lived there for so long is down to the loving care, she receives! Management is excellent; they have an open door policy! If I have any concerns I know that they will be dealt with quickly and effectively, which includes receiving feedback! I would highly recommend Whitefield Lodge to anyone looking for a care home.
