Since Mum...
Recently, I have seen a lot of work being carried out at the home, which is good, as it was looking a bit unloved after Covid times.
Thank you so much for your lovely feedback. I am delighted to hear you are so happy with our service. I will pass on your feedback to our team.

The staff at St Brelades are caring and helpful. My mum is always clean and tidy, her hair done, her nails done. On the odd occasion, she is in her slippers and pyjamas because she does not want to get dressed, they are always very apologetic and explain the reasons why she is not dressed for visitors. The staff are always happy to make time to discuss any questions or concerns I have regarding my mum's health or care. The staff are always keeping the ladies entertained with crafts, music, film afternoons, memory tasks and seasonal fun.

My mother recently passed away at St Brelades aged 98 after five years of wonderful care. She was very happy there, as is her sister who is still there. The staff are always kind and gentle and welcoming to visitors at all times. The end of life care she received was so much better than if she’d passed away in hospital. A big thank you to all the staff who worked especially hard during COVID to keep everyone safe. My mother couldn’t have been in a better place.
Thank you for writing such a lovely review. We appreciate your kind comments especially at this difficult time. We miss your mother and have fond memories of the times we shared with her and will continue to speak of her fondly especially with her beloved sister. I will pass your kind comments on to the staff.
My mother was at St Brelades for just over four years. She entered under different management, and I worried greatly when there was a change of management about 18 months into her time there, but they retained crucial/long-standing staff. (Some staff members have been there 14+ years, form strong...
My mother was not the easiest person, but she was treated with compassion and respect throughout. At the end of her life, it was very clear that she had been looked after by staff who knew her; knew her likes and dislikes, and had built a positive relationship with her; all of which is essential.
Thank you so much for writing this review; we do appreciate it. We are very touched by your kind comments about the care we provided your mother, who is greatly missed and remembered with much fondness by the entire team. Thank you for trusting us with the care of your mother; it was a privilege to be of service and to know you as a family.
I am always impressed by the care and consideration given to my wife by everyone employed in St Brelades. Her health and memory problems are fully understood, and she seems completely happy, settled and contented, what more can I ask?

Excellent care provided to my mum over the past three years. Staff always attentive or understanding. My sister and I are delighted to have chosen St Brelades when our Mum could no longer care for herself.

I'm really happy with the care at St Brelades. The facilities might not be a 100% as there is no hair salon but my mum is happy there.

From being a very unhappy and muddled lady, she is now so relaxed and happy. The amount of thought they give to every resident's need is brilliant.

My mother has been a resident at St Brelades for 8 years now. Her deterioration with dementia has been a slow process indeed. From the time of her 95th birthday last December, she has been totally bed bound. However, throughout her stay the standard of care from staff has been excellent and that...
The only blot on the landscape has been clothing laundry. It is not for me to pick the battle with the staff involved but complaints to management have yielded little noticeable improvement.
We are sorry to note the ongoing issues with this service user's laundry. Measures were put in place to ensure that delicate garments were not...

My wife has been in this home for 3 1/2 years. At all times the standards have been good. Staff good and caring. Activities good. I have been kept well informed at all times. It has a very homely feeling. I find this very comforting and reassuring.

The care my mother has received since being a resident of St Brelades Care Home has been excellent. The staff are attentive, thoughtful and kind and have always treated my mother with respect and dignity. They have taken the time to get to know my mother well and understand her needs. My mother is treated as an individual, and the staff have formed a special bond with her. Although my mother has advanced dementia, she is keeping very well and takes pleasure in activities and human contact.
St Brelades is a care home which sees the person beneath the dementia and respects the fact that the individual had a full life before the disease took hold and changed them. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending the home to anyone who has a friend or relative needing expert care in a loving homely environment.
Excellent care provided very personal and tailor-made. Good food and medical care. Very clean environment. Good access to manager and staff. Friendly and relaxed atmosphere. Good communication skills on all levels. Visitors always welcomed and tea offered.
