Cornerways

Having observed the workings of Cornerways over a period of 3 months I have been amazed at the dedication of all levels of staff. There is an ethos, that flows from top to bottom and bottom to top, but always centred on resident satisfaction. How the staff maintain their cheery disposition in face of all they have to deal with is beyond me.

My Mother is always well dressed and well-looked after. Her room is clean and tidy and well equipped with the aids necessary for her safety and well being. Her laundry is done on a regular basis and attention is paid to such as her hair, nails and chiropody. Medication is handled and a Doctor called whenever required. Mother is well fed and happy and assisted with her mobility. Residents are monitored on a regular basis and guests are catered for without any problem.

Cornerways is a nice location and residents are treated to music acts, trips out various daytime activities to keep them stimulated both mentally and physically.

Thank you all for what you do.

Cornerways is clean and very well run. The staff are very friendly and helpful and the food is good. Should I need respite for my partner in the future, I hope there will be a room available at that time.

I'm very pleased how my dad has settled in, it is very friendly home and the staff are all willing to help at all times. It is also very nice to see the staff on hand if you need help There is always activities going on in the afternoon which they Can do or just watch. My dad is a very friendly and sociable person and they seem to be able to get that out of him. It is just nice to know that the person who you love very much is well looked after. Cornerways is always very clean and tidy. Thank you to all the staff at Cornerways for being so caring it is so easy to come and visit my dad I always feel welcome.

My mother has been a resident of a number of care homes in the Torbay area. This has been by far the best one out of them all. The staff are always cheerful and work very hard to make sure the needs of the residents are their number one priority. There are all sorts of activities going on throughout the day: quizzes, play your cards right, softball, bowling, etc. The meals are excellent and freshly cooked by the onsite chef and dietary needs are catered for on an individual basis. The dining room and living room areas are all nicely decorated with comfortable seating. There is a small garden area (quite quirky), for the residents to look out on or get access to via a staff member. The care home is very safe as all entrances and exits have to be facilitated by a member of staff. I would highly recommend Cornerways to any relative that wants the very best of care for their family member.

My family have always found Cornerways to be a caring, comfortable home for our mother who suffers from dementia and is partly bed-bound. The staff are always caring and attentive and manage to find time to talk to us when visiting, and to keep us informed as to any health matters and care issues.

All staff cared for and cared about my husband in a genuine manner, through the year I have visited him 3 days a week staying 4-6 hours every time and joining him in the dining room for the days main meal. The whole building always smells fresh and any spills are always dealt with immediately. The carers always answer residents questions as if hearing them for the first time when in fact it's probably the 4th or 5th time in the last half and hour from the same resident. Marvellous! They also give caring answers to awkward and sometimes upsetting questions. Brilliant!

Looking for care home for my husband. My first impression was the warmth and friendliness of all the staff and now after just a short time I know I have chosen the right care home for our needs. My husband has settled well thanks to all at Cornerways also they have been so kind to me at this very stressful time. I would recommend this place to my family and friends.
