Review from Keith S (Son of Resident) published on 4 October 2016 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
Facilities only satisfactory as the resident had long waits to go up the stair lift at start and end of the days which she found a little frustrating.
Activities only satisfactory as the resident felt that more could have been done to promote activity of some of the guests.
Having said that, everything else very good. Would certainly recommend and highly likely to request another stay in the future.

Loving, caring staff who make the stay very pleasant.

I am sorry to hear that there were long delays to use stair lift but I can now reassure you that individual's needs would be re-assessed and prioritised.We would also look into the activities provision that we currently have in place to improve further to meet individual needs.

Review from Pat (Sister of Resident) published on 20 June 2016 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
The staff are always welcoming and friendly looking after the elderly residents very well with patience and tact.
Television and music are always available and there is a pleasant garden in good weather.
The food appears to be quite presentable/tasty for the clients. (generally soft)
Hairdressing and Chiropodist facilities are available as extras.
When convenient outings are available.
There is a stair lift to the en-suite bedrooms (some needing attention)
The medication per person is strictly and safely distributed by a senior staff member.

Review from Anita A (Wife of Resident) published on 20 June 2016 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
My Brother settled into Poplars very quickly and from the day he went to live there I have seen a huge improvement in his responses and I believe that this is because of how much happier and contented he feels. The wonderful staff treat each resident as an individual and the benefits of this are shown through the relaxed, homely atmosphere. I am always informed of any problems, which are dealt with efficiently and professionally and regularly kept up to date with any progress made.
As relatives, we can visit at any time and are encouraged to share any worries we have or add any suggestions which might help or improve the day to day lives of our loved ones. The mantra of Poplars is for the residents to feel as though they are in their own home and they are treated accordingly. Their birthdays are celebrated with a party, there is regular hired entertainment - as well as the daily occupational activities - and they also arrange days out. This care home really is a "home from home".
