I felt at home immediately because of the warmth of my reception. I had suffered a fall, tripping on a raised edge of a paving stone and felt very shaken. I relaxed at once because of the calm and happy atmosphere. At no time when I needed advice or help was there any hesitation in giving it. I was there for only one week while I recovered, and when I left, I felt that the permanent residents were fortunate people.

1) The slippery shiny brown satin bedspread which was a pain to keep tidy, necessitating a lot of walking round to straighten it after it had been sat upon.
2) Of the housekeeper who tore around the room tidying up and putting my toilet things on a low shelf beneath the lavatory systern, virtually out of reach and i cannot reach below my knees. (I found this out after she had left)
3) Another problem was the difficulty of creaming my itchy back. It would have liked to have been asked if i wanted any help here. I treated the whole visit as an exercise in self sufficiency and was disappointed to find i failed here.
4) I found there was no wi-fi, although the website said there was
5) Additionally the phone was put in on the 3rd (Thank heavens for mobiles!)

The nursing staff/carers were excellent and treated her with dignity, professionalism, good humour and affection. I was always welcomed and included which also helped me accept that this was where my mother would be best helped and happy.

Staff shortages impact quality of care. Barry and his team are fantastic with residents. At times food at meal times seems minimal. Residents due to staff shortages are having to wait to be taken to the loo. All staff are very friendly to both residents and visitors. Where satisfactory given this would be higher if the staffing was at the level of three at all times, seems to be two more often than three!!

Thank you for taking the time to review Laverstock Care Centre, we really appreciate your feedback. At Laverstock we take great pride in ensuring we deliver high quality care and facilities and providing outstanding choices and quality produce when creating a healthy and varied menu, meeting the needs of every resident’s individual dietary requirements.

We welcome the opportunity to improve, and hope you will continue to share your thoughts with us in the home in future.
