Dad was 96 when he moved into Southern House. I was so pleased he was able to go there as their care of/for Mum, until she passed away, was really good only several years earlier.
It was at Southern House that Dad found a new lease of life. I shall always be so truly grateful to all of the staff -
for the last 10 months of Dad's life he was as content as he could be without Mum. He was looked after and cared for so well by some genuinely wonderful people. 2 members of Southern House team even attended his funeral!
I really would, and do, recommend Southern House. They genuinely do care about their residents and simply want the best for them.
Thank you for all you did for Dad, it is appreciated beyond words!

My husband has been with Southern House for the past 17months now, during that time his complex needs have become more servere but throughout the time and during his deterioration he has been well cared for overall and his needs have been met. Cooks ensure that he gets food, he doesn't eat a late afternoon
meal they ensure he gets a slightly larger portion of food at lunchtime, they also ask every day around 4pm if he wants anything.
He is now bedridden and unable to join in activities, however, Ashleigh the activities co-ordinator goes into see him each day, she knows all the residents really well and takes time to involve everyone, she really is amazing and lights up the residents lives on a daily basis, always has a smile for every single residents and their family and friends.
The lounge and dining room are well decorated and bright and cheerful, I would like to see repairs done to my hubby's bedroom, overall, this is a lovely, warm, welcoming home, thank you

My dad wasn't with them very long but in the time he was there he was happy and well looked after which is what we all hope for from a care home, the staff were absolutely brilliant with his care it seemed like nothing was too much trouble. As I mentioned he wasn't with them very long but the staff
also really went above and beyond with helping us after he passed.

Mum extremely well cared for and happy here. Nothing is too much trouble. Fantastic selection of entertainment always on offer, keeping residents engaged and stimulated. Personal care top notch and beauty therapies such as hair and nails always a priority, helping residents feel happy and refreshed.
So nice to know that mum is happy in her lovely new home and room.

My aunty has been here for over a year now, she has settled in well and made friends with a few of the ladies, Southern House has plenty to offer, with dailey activities with Ashleigh who seems to have really made bonds with each resident individually. The social media is also a fantastic way to keep
up to date what aunty F is up to! A lovely atmosphere and always very clean and well kept!

All the team members we've met have been bright and cheerful and very helpful. My mother has been a resident now for 10 months, has settled in well and we can see she is very well cared for. Plenty of mental and physical stimulation is provided and very thoughtfully planned. Residents are encouraged
to partake in craft activities. Regular entertainment from musicians and drama groups is also programmed. It is reassuring to know that the staff are genuinely caring.

When mum arrived at Southern House she was quiet ill and bedridden initially she went downhill but since being here she has gone from strength to strength. Through the interaction of the staff and the care she is now able to hold a good conversation she is also able to recognise many more people.

Everyone is polite and my mum's room is clean. The premises smells fresh and the main area and lounge is well kept. My mum eats well and is in the main lounge area on the days she feels up to it. It's very bright environment which I feel is important.

As a family, we are very pleased with the loving care and attention our mother receives at Southern House. There are numerous activities to stimulate the residents throughout the year, many are supported by the families which we also enjoy. The food provided is nutritious and home cooked and always
fresh. In my mothers words 'the place is always clean and tidy'

My Mother was this week transfered to Southern House from a Care Home in Llandudno.
On arrival at Southern House she was made to feel welcome. Staff gave her a cup of tea and introduced themselves.
Discussed Lunch to ensure it was something she likes.
So far nothing but praise for the Staff and facilities.
Mother has settled in quickly and feels relaxed and at Home.
Well done and thank you.

Mom was unable to cope with care at home so she became a resident in 2018 and was here for approx 7 years. My main concern was that she be safe and take her meds, but she got so much more at Southern House. The staff all gave her so much care and affection and it gave all of us so much peace of mind
to know she was looked after so well. Big thank you from all of us.
