Beech House

My husband moved into Beech House in Spring 2023 and has settled in really well. The staff are wonderful, really caring, and treat him with dignity. The rooms are spotlessly clean, the food is excellent and the entertainment is regular and varied. The management are available at all times to discuss any matters arising. I really recommend Beech House.

My husband has settled in well and is happy. All the staff are super and he is very well looked after. They always seem to be different activities happening which suits my husband as he needs to be kept occupied

I find the staff very friendly, very helpful. Nothing is ever too much trouble. The place always looks clean and tidy. They seem to always have events going on my mother-in-law always seems very happy. They always send us photos of the events and the day trips out. Very lovely care home.

Our mum moved into Beech House in October 2022 and has been very happy there. The staff are warm and caring, as is the atmosphere, and Mum was very well looked after; nothing was ever too much trouble. Sadly, due to unforeseen medical issues, Mum has had to move into a nursing home and has settled in well. However, we will think of Beech House often and with fond memories. Thank you to all the team.

Thank you everyone at Beech House for all you do.

My husband has been at Beech House for nine months. This has been a challenging and emotional time for us all but we have been given great support from the manager and staff at Beech House. My husband has been cared for with respect and dignity. He responds to the friendly attitude of the amazing carers. I visit the Home most days and always feel welcome and included .

Cannot recommend it highly enough.

Beech House is a lovely, small, homely care home, where the staff really do care about the residents, despite the challenges of their Dementia. The level of care my mum has experienced so far is very good and nothing is too much trouble. I like the fact that I can ring the home at any time for an update. Whenever I contact Beech House with a query, or to book a visit, the response is prompt, professional, and very friendly. Mum has everything she needs, including a well-equipped bedroom and a choice of lounges where she can interact with other residents, as she wishes. On a particular note are the in-house cooking, reliable laundry service and the many activities and outings that are regularly arranged by the enthusiastic team. Hairdresser and chiropodist visits are arranged regularly and mum has access to optician and dentist consultations. Beech House has been diligent in ensuring Covid safety for residents and visitors. Overall, we are so pleased we chose Beech House for mum.

She is very happy there and it is clear to all her extended family that her overall health and well-being have improved since she moved to Beech House.

I can highly recommend Beech House and the care my father received from everyone there. Many of the staff are still the same as when he first arrived, I am sure that consistency was a great comfort to him. I was always kept well informed of his well-being during the Covid crisis, the fact that my father never contracted the virus shows the lengths they went to protect their vulnerable residents. Whenever I visited him, the staff always took the time to tell me how much they liked my father and he in turn seemed very happy in their company. The kindness shown to me and my family on his passing was very touching. I have only good memories and thoughts of his time at Beech House. A big thank you to you all.

Dad was admitted to Beech House in January 2021, which with Covid, was not ideal but the entire team at Beech House couldn't have been more helpful. The team are absolutely fabulous and we are delighted that Dad has benefitted from the same consistent team since then - care, activities, admin & manager - which we think is very important. The home is rightly being cautious about opening up fully to a pre-Covid position which would enable us to see more of the day-to-day operation. But we have no doubt, that when this happens, we will be equally delighted with what we discover.

My father went to live in Beech House in August 2020 and we have been delighted with the care he has received. All the staff have been really helpful and understanding and he settled in quickly. The manager and staff are always available to chat on the phone and the precautions to protect against Covid are very well managed. Activities are organised on a regular basis to stimulate and give pleasure to the residents and it is possible to follow this on the Facebook page. The outside area is very welcoming for the residents to sit in during the warmer months. A huge thank you to Beech House, which is to be highly recommended.

My mum has been at Beech House since about September 2020 and she has really flourished since arriving. The staff and everyone associated with Beech House has made my mum comfortable safe and happy again. Thank you Beech House.

I am really happy with the care mum receives at Beech House, especially in the difficult times with COVID 19; the care cannot be faulted. The staff are kind and caring and this has helped mum settle in. The genuine rapport between Mum and the staff makes me feel confident that she is safe and well cared for physically, but more importantly emotionally. I would not hesitate to recommend Beech House.

I'm very pleased with the care my mum receives in the home, especially now with these strange times with Covid-19. We have been kept informed, and they are very helpful when we phone and Whatsapp in, to speak with Mum.

The Beech House care team have been very helpful, kind and understanding about the specific needs of a wonderful gentleman who I helped to move in.

The home manager is approachable about all matters so I recommend a visit if you are considering this home for someone you care about.

The home is secure and good value for money and well managed. Care staff work very hard and are caring and kind. They are always welcoming to visitors. Some areas of the home need updating and décor refreshed/updated. Some windows need replacing. Activities are good but need improving to accommodate residents with advanced dementia. The home helps and encourages residents to maintain outside interests, although sadly this has stopped due to relatives level of dementia.

The carers are very caring and they inform me of what needs my husband needs and they care for him very well and take him out in the summer months on day trips.

Mum is cared for and well presented. Mum is sometimes difficult and yet staff deal with her with humour and kindness. She is happy there but cannot actually tell us what she does - due to the dementia! Her room is well cared for and she is dressed in her own clean clothes. She can be difficult and staff appreciate this and share the information with us, they let us know when there have been issues, and what these issue are. Food is good and as a visitor I have been offered lunch when I arrived at an inopportune moment. Mum is keen to come out for a while and have a ride around but actually wants to go back there if we bring her to our house. Dementia is dreadful and the team at Beech House do their very best to make it as painless as possible.

My mother has been treated very well and all her needs seem to be met. It is good to see her sitting in the lounge more often rather than in her room. Care needs to be taken when washing clothes as some tops/cardigans seem to be washed on too high a setting.
