St Bernards Care Home

Dad loved his time at St Bernards, especially the food, breakfast being his favourite. The owners and staff were always helpful and caring and looked after Dad during his stay. We would recommend the home to anyone thinking of using their facilities.

Wonderful caring people who do everything right. Extremely well run care home with solid ownership, management and a team ethos. If you are looking for exceptional care for your loved one, I strongly recommend you go and pay them a visit. Kind regards.

My father was welcomed into St Bernards very quickly after we were forced to accept he could no longer live independently. Having viewed several homes we were pleased that St Bernards were able to provide him residential care due to his worsening dementia. His well-being both mentally and physically improved over the time he was there. The food was excellent and the staff were fantastic. Thanks to the carers.

If we are faced with Care needs in our family in the future we would look no further.

An undoubted plus is the garden. It is a pleasant ambience to sit and meet relatives.

My mother has been in this home for close to 2 years now. She came here from another residential home in the locality following a number of unacceptable problems. St Bernards was a breath of fresh air to my mother and our family. She is well cared for, always clean and well-fed. My mother is very happy here which is the most important thing to our family. The staff are lovely to her and make a fuss of her regularly. There are always staff members watching over the residents whereas, in her previous home, I would arrive and sit with the residents and not see a member of staff for half an hour!! The decor is bright and clean, and the gardens are lovely. Whilst I am always sad to leave her because you can never be certain of the future, I don't have sleepless night worrying if she is ok and if she is safe. Thanks to all the team. I will be eternally grateful.

Occasionally, they are short-staffed but is doesn't cause any major problems. Myself and my family feel very happy knowing mom is at St Bernards.

However, the individual carers are excellent and their level of care is second to none. Above all, my mother is very happy and that is what matters.

My mother entered the care home in November 2017. The staff are very caring and quite tactile. This has helped my mother settle quickly and she is more happy and contented than I have seen her for a long time. The care home is like a hotel rather than an institution. The dining tables have linen table clothes (rather than canteen style wipe down tables) There is a beautiful garden to sit in and lovely patio to enjoy in the sunny weather. We cannot fault the care my mother is now receiving.

The level of care, attention to detail and level of humour and fun that is delivered by the staff at St Bernards is exemplary. Their patience with and respect for all residents is obvious and they provide a stimulating and enjoyable environment in a truly beautiful home which retains a real sense of luxury and comfort.

The owners try to improve and maintain excellent care, food and facilities. The staff are kind and respect each resident as an individual. There are a wide variety of activities and staff have ongoing training to maintain a safe and informed basis for residents wellbeing.

We have been delighted with the care and support mum has received since she moved in. The accommodation is immaculate, spotlessly clean and spacious. There are several communal lounges all pleasantly furnished.

There are regular activities, a pleasant garden to enjoy and sit out in. The place is a real home from home and a credit to the staff and owners.

I chose St Bernards for my aunt because of the homely atmosphere and particularly the excellent programme of activities. Unfortunately, Aunt has not wished to take advantage of the activity programme but in every other respect, she is well cared for and content. She feels it a bonus that she is not obliged to be sociable. Aunt and I are confident that every effort will be made to keep her at St Bernards for the remainder of her days. It is such a relief to us both.

I have had experience of other care homes and this is as good as any. Definitely seem to do everything to take care of the best interests of the residents. Always appear to be well staffed and all take a real interest in their jobs. I have absolutely no concerns or complaints.

The management have always kept me informed and up to date with my sisters condition and they appear both pleasant and professional.

My Mother moved into St Bernards Residential Care Home in October 2015 and she was welcomed in a caring and homely environment.

The home is beautiful with a lovely garden which helped my Mum to make the difficult transition from her own home to residential care. However, more importantly, the staff at the home could not have been kinder or more helpful. They cared for my Mother and she felt at home there and surrounded by a new family.

The food was delicious and there were lots of regular meals to tempt Mum. We took snacks in initially but soon realised they were not needed (nor eaten) because Mum had all the meals, snacks and drinks she needed or could wish for.

I am deeply grateful for all the professional care and also the kindness and affection which was felt, not only by my Mother but by the family and friends who visited Mum at St Bernards too.

An excellent care home. All residents appear to be well cared for. Relatives are always welcome, and all staff/management provide support to them, as well as to the residents. There are lots of activities for the residents and their families to join in with and staff enthusiastically take part as well. Food at the care home is tasty, nutritious and beautifully presented. I have no concerns with my aunt being cared for at St Bernard's.

My aunt is quite happy and likes all the staff. They are all very nice people and I am happy to leave her here.

Overall very good, friendly staff, nice accommodation.

You can see the happiness in her eyes and she is so contented to be at St Bernards Residential Care Home. All the staff are so caring, this reflects so well on the owners.
