My father has been in The Corner House for a few months and is very settled. The staff treat him with care and respect. If I have any concerns, they are addressed very promptly. The food is very good. Activities are offered every day (mornings and afternoons). Any medical issues are managed and addressed quickly. The staff are very friendly and try to include all residents in events etc. But they also take time to talk to the residents.
Mum is always happy and well cared for by the all members of staff.

Thank you for taking the time to complete a review. It is always nice to hear that our residents and families are happy with the care here at the home.
Have had three previous respite stays before the current, permanent change. Very pleased every time with the service provided. The vast majority of staff are very caring, helpful and patient with my needs. Would recommend this home to others thinking about a care home.

When my father died after a short illness Mum's forgetfulness suddenly became recognisable as full-blown dementia. It soon became very clear that she could not remain in her own home without him. Corner House was recommended and after viewing a beautiful room so similar to her own home, I had no hesitation taking her there. She has friends and interests now, she loves the food and the staff. The standard of care is exemplary and her standard of living is the best I could hope for.
Many thanks for this lovely review. We strive to create a homely environment for all our residents. We are so pleased that your mum is happy living with us at Corner House.

Before my uncle moved into Corner House Care Home, my wife and I looked at three other care homes in the local area. Corner House stood out from the rest. My uncle went in for three weeks respite, to see if he liked it. He made his mind up in less than a week and decided not to return home. The times that stood out to us in selecting Corner House were - The care home manager gave us confidence. The home is continually being improved. We observed staff working with residents in a warm and respectful way. My uncle enjoys the food they serve. I highly recommend this care home. We feel confident that our uncle is getting the best possible care in his twilight years.
The most wonderful care for my mum and dad. Nothing is too much, clean and food amazing.

My Mum lived in The Corner House for over two years before she passed away from late-stage dementia in November 2020. I live overseas, and in all the time Mum was a resident (and since), the staff and management were beyond expectations. Pre and during Covid, they were amazing and looked after Mum with the utmost care, respect and love that was way beyond their roles. Towards the end, and my inability to visit Mum due to Covid, they did everything possible to ensure Mum's end was as comfortable as possible and that I was involved in every step of the way. They encouraged me to video WhatsApp several times a day, and Mum was never on her own, and she always still looked beautiful, peaceful and so well cared for. After Mum passed, they kept in touch with me (and still do) and helped me manage all arrangements from afar. Despite the massive sadness of losing my mum and not being able to be with her, I will be forever grateful for the amazing angels at The Corner House.
It was our pleasure to get to know both you and your Mum. Our sincere condolences at your loss. Regards.
Staff extremely helpful and considerate, and the facility tries to constantly make the premises "homely".

Many thanks for the positive comments, we are always striving to "create" that feeling of home.
My dad has been here for 1 year and hs settled in well. During Covid-19 it has been very difficult especially for visiting but they have done extremely well with organising very safe visits in the garden. Hopefully, by next year things will be better for all.

Although we are not allowed to visit Mum inside the home, every effort has been made to allow me to visit once a week. Her care and welfare seem to be good.

Thank you, lets hope we can be more flexible with visiting as together we work to control Covid19.
I have no complaints except sometimes it takes ten minutes to get the door answered. I have had cause to phone to get the door answered.
