My Mum said she would never go into a Home, but now she is here she doesn't want to be anywhere else. The staff are always on hand (with a smile) to help her - and to help me with any queries I might have. They are all very friendly and patient with Mum. She feels safe in the Home and has made lots of new friends during the time she has been there. The Administration team explained everything to us and made the process of moving her into the Home very easy.
Thank you for taking the time to write a review and leave some lovely feedback for the team. Everyone at Plymbridge is so pleased your mum has settled in so well. Thank you.
Plymbridge House has been a Godsend to us as a family. My mother has advanced dementia and the care we see her getting is second to none. My sister, brother and I would agree that everyone at the home is consistently friendly, helpful and kind whenever we visit. The staff are lovely with Mum and...
The house as a whole has a happy and friendly feel to it. It is always clean, welcoming and even sweet-smelling. There is often laughter, music and plenty of activities which all can join. There are well-balanced, nutritious meals and treats for the sweet-toothed. Drinks are always offered to residents and visitors and whilst a routine exists, there is also flexibility.
Plymbridge House stands out as an exceptional Care Home as far as I'm concerned and I would recommend it to anyone. Thanks guys! Keep up the good work!
Thank you for taking the time to write such a lovely review. We're really pleased that both your family and your mum are getting the best care. The whole team will be delighted to hear this lovely feedback. Thank you.
We are very happy with the care that Mum is receiving and it is comforting for us all to know that Mum is safe. Staff are always very welcoming when we visit. The gardens and the home are always kept in a very clean and tidy condition.

My mother has been made to feel very welcome by all the staff who have been very friendly and supportive helping her to settle in. She has been treated with dignity and respect at all times.

My husband's stay at Plymbridge House has been so much better by the love and care he has received from all the staff. Everyone has been so kind and understanding of his needs. The meals have been so nice, fresh and homemade. I cannot thank them all enough for their care and love. Thank you.

I feel that my mum was getting excellent care within the home and the staff are very professional and very caring towards my mum and all the residents. Every time I'm down there they're so professional, do things with them such as activities, singers and keep them occupied for many hours. The whole staff are very friendly and genuine. I regularly take my mum to the dining room which is fantastically laid out and she enjoys her meals at the home. I think her experience in the home she is enjoying it because it's very homely.
Thank you so much for the excellent review of Plymbridge House. The team work hard to create a home from home environment so glad your mum is enjoying living at Plymbridge House.

Since my uncle became a resident earlier this year, I have been extremely happy with the care he has received. Staff quickly got to know him and to understand his needs, and so far, have been, without exception, compassionate, caring and kind. Always welcoming and friendly, they have been brilliant at keeping me informed of his progress and any needs, and in many ways, I feel that they have changed his life for the better, providing companionship and entertainment. Thank you to all the staff, and in my experience, you are a shining example of how a care home should be - Plymbridge House feels more like a family than an institution.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review of Plymbridge House. We agree that it's a very homely home with an excellent team that cares for everyone.

My elderly mother has recently become a resident at Plymbridge House and I have been very impressed by the quality of care given to her and residents alike when I have visited. The staff are always welcoming and happy. They work hard to ensure the best possible care and support and have been brilliant with Mum. This has helped her to settle into her new home. Mum is happy to know she has support by day and by night and is well cared for. She enjoys the many activities and entertainment and sitting outside in the lovely garden. Recently, she enjoyed a morning out with a small group for coffee and cake. Overall, this is the best place for mum where she can now be worry-free and enjoy her days in a relaxed and happy environment.
Thank you so much for your review of Plymbridge House. We agree that the team do an incredible job everyday and we are pleased to hear your mum is happy at Plymbridge.
From the moment my mother moved into Plymbridge House, she was made to feel special and told it was her home. Every member of staff and management have been brilliant. My family know that she is cared for and safe being shown kindness and top-rate care in a lovely building.

Plymbridge House and their staff are such a caring and welcoming place for your loved ones to stay. The staff there keep them safe and cared for and make them and yourself feel like family. You are always welcome to talk out worries and problems you are feeling and the staff will always listen and give advice. There has never been a time that I have had to complain about anything and I would wholeheartedly say that if you or a loved one has to make that decision of becoming a resident (and I know how hard and heartbreaking this is), Plymbridge House is a lovely, welcoming, happy home to stay.

Whenever I see the daytime staff team I am always impressed with their caring and friendly attitude. This consistency has been key to helping my mum on good days and not-so-good days. You have helped Mum join in activities which has been key in helping her mix and settle.

My mother has been a resident of Plymbridge House for nearly 3-years, and she is very happy with her room and the communal areas in the home. My father has also just moved into the home following illness and a severe fall, which left him with restrictive movement. The members of our family are all very happy with the staff and management at the home, and we thank them for the care they provide to our parents.

My mother moved to Plymbridge House in 2016 after breaking her hip. My sister and I chose it because it felt like home. We did not know then how important the warm friendly atmosphere would become when the arrival of the Covid pandemic stopped family visiting and taking Mum out. The Senior care staff, Health Care Assistants and all the people working to keep the home functioning smoothly did everything to keep Mum and her fellow residents as well and happy as they possibly could.
They helped us keep in touch daily and, when we could not be with Mum, the staff were not only caring for her but being friends and family to her. Recently, aged 95 and over five years after making Plymbridge her home, our mother became very ill. My sister and I were enabled to spend a great deal of time with her until she sadly died. We saw so clearly how much the staff cared about her and are extremely grateful for the kindness and support they have given to Mum and to us.
Thank you so much for taking the time to write such a lovely review of Plymbridge House. Recognising the homely feel and care of the staff means a huge amount to us. I will share your review with all of the team. Thank you again for writing a review. My thoughts are with you and your sister.
My friend has just come to Plymbridge House a few months ago. I must say the staff have been very kind to her. Most kind to me when I ring them up.

After making the difficult decision to give up her home and move into care, she has settled in extremely well thanks to each and every member of staff. In what are extremely challenging times they have given their all to make her feel at home and include her in everything that is going on. Can I also mention the fantastic gardens, which are so welcoming!.
Thank you so much for the wonderful review of Plymbridge House. The staff all work extremely hard to help everyone settle into their new home. We love the garden too!

My mother has been living at Plymbridge House for over 3 years. I have always had every confidence in the staff care provided, it quickly became a home from home for her. I have never had any concerns with the care provided, this has been particularly reassuring over the last year when I couldn't see mum due to the pandemic. When visiting is allowed I have always been made to feel welcome and you quickly feel you are amongst friends, when I couldn't visit I was kept up t date and informed of any changes.
Thank you for writing your review of Plymbridge. I certainly hope we can all continue to safely see family. Thank you for your kind words I will share with the team at Plymbridge that work hard to deliver exceptional care.

As Home Manager and registered nurse, I bring over 14 years of experience across residential care, hospital settings, and community nursing. My journey into care began through family influence and grew into a lifelong passion. I’ve worked my way up through a variety of roles, which gives me a deep respect for every part of the team and the importance each department plays in making a house a home.
I’m passionate about person-centred care and creating a warm, supportive environment where residents are truly known and valued. I’m also a strong advocate for people living with dementia, believing they should be empowered to live well, with meaning, joy, and the freedom to enjoy what they love each day.
My vision is for our home to grow with the needs of our community, providing high-quality, individualised care that reflects the diverse and changing needs of our ageing population. I work closely with families and staff to ensure we build trust, provide reassurance, and create a space where everyone feels safe, connected, and at home.
Outside of work, I’m happiest when spending time with my family and chocolate Labrador, or off on an adventure in my campervan. I’m also a very proud “cool auntie” to a bunch of brilliant nieces and nephews. Whether I’m getting in the sea at the beach, letting them do my hair and makeup, or getting messy baking in the kitchen, making memories with them is one of my greatest joys.
