All staff and management are not only caring to patients, visitors also. Just like one 'happy family'. Hope I don't but should I need care in the future would be happy to stay at Adamscourt.

I have been very disappointed in this care home. The lack of feedback and communication, on important matters have been vague and unprofessional especially from the manager. Not enough English speaking carers and several care failings and neglect. I have no faith or trust in this care home and if you did use it for your parents, you need to be able to be very physically involved. I am glad that my mother is finally moving out.

Sorry we have upset you by giving your wonderful Mum notice to leave our care home; solely down to your unreasonable behaviour. Sad situation for Mum, moving 4 times prior; no fault of her own. She remains happy, settled, and is being cared for excellently by our carers. The manager tried to work with you and communicate effectively over a year. 70% of staff are English others level 6 or above. You used the word neglect and care failings which we find particularly upsetting and untrue. Every complaint you made to the home, SSrvs, CQC, Deprivation of Liberty Dept, have all been investigated by the relevant authority and not upheld. We have worked in an open and transparent way with every dept and have evidence from all of them that we have not in any way neglected Mum and are meeting her care needs, over and above expectations. We hope, now other agencies are involved in finding her a new home, she be allowed to settle and thrive, as she has with us and can live the remainder of her life in one home, peacefully.

Since Grandma arrived at Adamscourt she has settled really well and the care she has received has been fantastic. The staff have been professional, friendly, and helpful, and have made us feel very welcome. They have kept us informed with how Grandma is, which has been very reassuring and much appreciated during the coronavirus times. lovely facilities including a nice garden and seating area. Excellent choice of food and a variety of activities which Grandma enjoys. Highly recommended. Thank you.

I have been very impressed with the care and support my mother has received since she arrived at Adamscourt. Every member of staff we have met has been so kind and welcoming; nothing is too much trouble. Mum is very happy here and receives excellent care; is very complimentary about the food and has a lovely, clean comfortable room. It is hugely reassuring to know she is happy, safe and well looked after, particularly in these difficult times. Thank you.

Care 24/7 general help 12/10.
Excellent attitude to care and attention and my needs. I was much fitter and happy after my stay with them. The food was wonderful. They dealt with not just a broken body and ankle but the need for 41 tablets a day to stay alive.
Since my father has been looked after at Adamscourt I have felt he seems content and the obvious care given is very noticeable.

My mother has been in Adamscourt for about 2 years and although I live a long distance from her I am very pleased with the care she receives. She seems happy, well presented and the food is excellent. The doctor has been called when necessary and the staff have been very pleasant and helpful. The home is well kept; clean, and no bad smells. I don't believe they could do anymore. As a final note, there is also a list of activities to stimulate during the week, which is very reassuring.
During my wife's final days all my family are appreciative of the care and dignity provided.

My name is Vanessa, I Have two grown-up children.I have worked in care since I left school, my first job was in the TB hospital in Bournemouth. This was a very challenging role, but I gained a lot of experience and it armed me with the training and resilience I needed to further my career. I then moved to Boscombe Hospital which was a different kind of care. This hospital closed and the new Bournemouth General Hospital was built I moved there for a while, and I then decided to take some time out and dedicate some time to my family. I started to miss working in care, I applied for the role of care assistant at Adamscourt and started in 2012 and gained a lot of experience and was promoted to senior, then Deputy manager and then in 2019 I was given the opportunity to become the home manager this has been an exciting and demanding challenge and I continue to learn each day. I am proud of myself for my achievements and the home has grown from strength to strength.
I have achieved my level 5 in care management and continue to attend courses which relate to care.
When I am not working I enjoy spending time with my family and our dogs. I also like reading and listening to music.
