Mother seems very happy at Brambling House, has put on weight, enjoyed her trip to the pantomime organised by the staff, and is as well as to be expected.

Review from S D M (Wife of Resident) published on 18 August 2017 Submitted via Postal Card•
Overall Experience
During the time my husband has been a resident at the home, we have been very pleased with all aspects of his care.
We are always made welcome when visiting, regardless what time we go or, being a large family, no matter how many of us arrive!

I don't think we would find another care home to equal the love and genuine care shown to both residents and all the family at all times.

Overall Experience
The care home and care my father is receiving is great. My father likes it there and enjoys the food provided. The staff are all caring and very good. The only negative is the shabby exterior.

We are hoping the painter will be here soon.

Review from Lyn P (Daughter of Resident) published on 10 November 2016 Submitted via Postal Card•
Overall Experience
My mother has been a resident at Brambling House EMI/Residential Home since March 2015. Her care has been second to one. The staff are very supportive, helpful and very welcoming. Brambling House EMI/Residential Home was the right placement for Mum as it's a home from home. Mum can be a little difficult at times due to her condition but the love and care she receives makes us so happy as it was heart-wrenching to leave her here, but we know she is as happy now as she can be. Well done to the management and all staff.

Review from Jennier C (Wife of Resident) published on 7 November 2016 Submitted via Postal Card•
Overall Experience
My husband moved into the nursing home earlier this year and apart from a few teething problems (literally with his teeth) he has settled in extremely well. The staff are really helpful, caring and really do go that extra mile to make sure he is happy and that makes us very happy knowing he is so well cared for. The only downside to the nursing home is the driveway, it really is a motorist nightmare. Not sure what happens in the winter!!
↩Reply from Sue Fuller, Mama at Brambling House Care Home
We're so sorry about our driveway, I will see if there is anything we can do.

Review from Alyson Y (Daughter of Resident) published on 7 November 2016 Submitted via Postal Card•
Overall Experience
The staff at Brambling House are what make the place. Since my Dad has been looked after there they have proved to be the kindest and most caring people we could have wished to be looking after him. Nothing is too much trouble. They are there not just to look after my dad, they also take care of us too. They are angels in our lives and I wish I could do something to show them how much I appreciate them.

Overall Experience
My mother-in-law has been looked after with much love and care. The staff are both professional and warm in their dealings with the residents. The staff are also good at keeping family members informed of developments, allowing for frank yet easy discussions around care issues.
