he is being well cared for.

sure all residents are cared for properly. The activities offered are 10/10. Thank you to everyone.

and walked up to the day room with me, where staff were quick to serve her fresh tea and a bowl of porridge, which she ate all of. The staff explained she had walked a lot the day before, hence why she was tired and obviously, I know myself how demanding that can be for staff. I know my mom is happy, and that makes me happy.

the initial assessment to the first day taking her in, we have felt welcomed into the home by all members of staff. Mom has spent 5 weeks in another care facility this year, but has settled in more quickly at Ashbourne. So far, all members of staff have been found to be very caring, kind and attentive to her needs. We feel reassured that Mom is cared for and loved in her new home. Thank you, Ashbourne.

tooth even though we have been requesting a dentist visit her for around 18 months. Simple things like rice pudding, cheese and crackers, olives, marmite are not provided, we have to take them in for her and even when we do they are not offered to her and she forgets she has them so they end up being thrown away. The activities are minimal so they are left to sit in their chairs doing nothing for a large portion of the day. Residents are taken to bed at around 6.30pm even when they don't want to go. No trips are ever planned and lockdown still exists here when they have cases of D&V even if residents don't show meaning they are made to stay in their rooms alone with no visitors. Disgusting!

the cleanliness has deteriorated due to low staff levels (domestic). Mom does seem settled though which I am very grateful for.

with dementia. Familiarity and routine were essential for his wellbeing, but weren't prioritised at all.
His room was sometimes left uncleaned for long periods, and hygiene standards fell short of what we felt was acceptable. Although some staff were kind, and Dad really liked the guy who did activities, overall care felt inconsistent.
We eventually moved Dad to another home where he now receives more stable, personalised care. He's much happier, healthier, and better supported.

We hope this review is taken as constructive feedback and leads to positive changes for those still living at the home.

me so much. I can't thank them enough for looking after my Mom, the home manager makes my life easier, she's such a caring person. Please pass on my comments to the owners. I was so proud to see the awards for Ashbourne.

at times. After 3 days she already seems to be settling in and is beginning to interact with the staff. It is all beginning to look more positive for mum after a long, difficult period so thanks to all at Ashbourne so far.

they have an effective team the co-ordinates well.

cards. The home is very supportive of the relatives. Thank you Ashbourne.

the care home. Thank you for all you do.
