Bethesda Eventide Homes

Generally a well-run home. Mum is always well cared for and is always washed and dressed when I visit. Food is OK, sometimes portions could be larger seems to be a general opinion old people don't eat much? The staff I have had contact with are all friendly and helpful.

I have been involved with Bethesda Eventide Homes for a number of years, previously as a trustee, for the last 4 years as a relative and for the last year as a volunteer too. I sometimes have the privilege of leading a Bible Study in the Homes. The Christian ethos is important and the management and staff work hard to ensure that those wishing to attend such events are assisted as necessary. It is always a pleasure to attend the Homes whether it is just to visit or in a voluntary capacity assisting the activities co-ordinator. The atmosphere is one of family and belonging where support is given to an individual as their needs require. My mum is well cared for and loved by those who care for her. A variety of activities are available to all,(including any who are visiting too). The management are dedicated to providing the best for the residents and their passion for the job is shared by the staff whatever their role, contributing to the warm atmosphere felt when visiting.

The activities provided throughout the year never fail to engage and amuse the residents and their families. This is a fun place to be for sure, where life is treasured to the last and memories are relived and talked about with respect and great interest.

I have visited the home on several occasions since the home opened after lockdown. I have supported the activity coordinator who provides many varied things for the visitors to participate in if desired. I have observed the staff working with the residents. They appear well-trained and are always courteous towards visitors and the residents. I also helped out in the kitchen as the cook was unwell and it was difficult to find a replacement at short notice. I worked with two members of staff who worked extremely hard to ensure the meal was served on time and that nutritional need was met. Both members of staff were well versed in the needs of the residents and ensured that the residents received food that was tasty and looked appetising as well as meeting appropriate nutritional needs. All the home staff are very friendly and always provide a happy atmosphere where residents can reach their potential and live in comfort.

Living in Australia, we can relax knowing that our family member is being well cared for in Bethesda care facilities. The staff can't be recommended highly enough for their professional service mixed with a pleasant manner. Bravo to all.

The team at Bethesda Eventide are friendly and caring and has a good relationship with my father, who has been a resident for more than 5-years. They have got to know his ways and routine, and it is lovely to see the interaction they enjoy. His home is of a good size, comfortable and warm, and he spends most of his time in there, although there is a range of activities he could join in with. The food is varied, and Dad always enjoys it. It is reassuring for us that Dad is well cared for and happy.

Wonderful care for my grandmother. Lots of activities for her and excellent care. A caring and safe environment. The staff are all respectful of each individual and the management team are always keen to include the families in the resident’s activities.

Bethesda people give a home that is both loving and professional,l ensuring a safe and enabling environment.

Bethesda is a happy and welcoming home. Mum is well cared for and treated with respect. A reassurance to know during covid times. Every day there are engaging activities to get involved with if you want to. We really appreciate the family activities which are well organised and are great opportunities to be with your loved one to have some fun and laughter in a homely atmosphere. The firework display in November with hot dogs was very good. Mum really enjoys the home-cooked food. There is always a good choice and a cup of tea is provided throughout the day. A nice touch when you visit to make it feel more like home.

The staff are always lovely and accommodating. We`re so grateful.

My mother loves it here. She is so well looked after by all of the staff. She enjoys the food, activities, themed says, friendly atmosphere and the high level of individual attention and care. The staff communicate with relatives through phone calls, emails, newsletters, zoom meetings and we are invited to join in the activities and special events any time we can. I am always made to feel welcome and listened to. It really is a special place and I'm so glad we found it!

I would strongly recommend this home

I have to say what a wonderful and loving home Bethesda Eventide home is. The staff are very, very caring and always willing to assist anyone. The residents all seem very happy and content and always involved in activities with the residents. The home is always spotless and full of flowers and love.

My father has been a resident for nearly two years and he settled very quickly in to the caring environment. The staff are all very friendly and approachable.

The Homes are well managed and the regular "Family Forum" meetings between management and the relatives of Residents provides helpful information and feedback.

I am very happy with the care my mother receives. She is happy and content which is also a great relief to me that she is so settled. Staff are friendly and approachable and having regular "family forum" meetings is a good idea so we are kept up to date with future events/any improvement to the care of patients. I would not hesitate to recommend Bethesda Eventide to any family/friends who are looking for care for a loved one.
