Our mother is always treated with dignity. We have found that some staff members are excellent, caring and hardworking, which frequently highlights those members of staff that aren't. One area we feel needs improvement is laundry. Our mother frequently has clothing in her room that does not belong to her, and we have found other residents wearing her clothes on more than one occasion. We always name her clothing.
I have always found the staff, home, facilities and care to be excellent. Staff always take time for each person and look after them extremely well. Nothing is too much trouble. Thank you to all the staff for their love and care.

It has been such a relief to know my mother is being cared for, so well; especially in this time of COVID. The staff are so kind and caring; and all so professional.

I cannot speak highly enough of the care, love and respect that has been shown to my mother from the moment she went to Talbot View. There is a feeling of calmness and peace as you enter the building, which encouraged my mother to feel safe and comfortable. Thank you to everybody for her care!

They also go above the call of duty to her family as we find it harder as well. They are always available to have a chat too or some much needed comfort if required. Her care is excellent and she is treated with dignity at all times.
We feel so grateful that mum is getting the best care at Talbot View
The home had a wonderful, calming atmosphere. The staff from cleaners to management were wonderful, supportive and kind. They helped us through a very difficult time and looked after my mum extremely well to the end of her life. We would like to say a big thank you to all of those that helped us....

I would describe Talbot View as a mid-range care home in terms of facilities and fees. It is housed in a modern building with an enclosed garden area. The main recommendation is the friendly care provided by the excellent staff. My mother lived there for nearly four years and came to regard the staff as her family. She was very happy living there. I am very grateful to the home for the care they provided.
Through my mother's last illness, lasting 6 days, I was able to stay with her night and day. I was made completely welcome and my needs were cared for. I had the opportunity at this time to witness the level of care and dedication blended with appropriate humour, shown at all times to all the...
I couldn't have asked for a better place for my mother to be at the end of her life, nor for better support for her and all her family. Thank you!

All the staff at Talbot View are very helpful and friendly.
Many thanks to all staff for your assistance and friendship.

He has settled well and joins in with many of the activities on offer. He particularly likes the dancing, skittles and football. He has been known to join in with the singing as well which has surprised the family.
He seems to have a new lease of life since moving to Talbot View.
We enjoy our visits with Dad and so does he.
The staff have all been wonderful with him and he eats properly which was always a worry before.
My mother is settled and very happy at Talbot View. Overall I am pleased with the care she receives.

My mother is doing very well despite her age and dementia. When she arrived at the home during 2015 she was in very poor health, frail and depressed. Despite her protestations, she is now far healthier and is able to converse with the staff and some of the other residents. We are amazed that she made such a good recovery with the support of the Care Home Staff.
A well-run care home with excellent facilities offering first class accommodation and care from helpful and caring staff.
