Over all time Bedwardine House Residential Care Home has 4 reviews.
Hard for me to comment on food and activities etc. as I am not present at those times, so I have just scored as satisfactory in the ratings below.
Thank you for honest review. Family days where food and activities are available for all to enjoy and partake in!! Please keep an eye out for an upcoming one this Summer.
We especially value the freedom our loved one has to choose to stay in their own room, with interested staff interacting and engaging in personalised activities. A kindly, understanding approach also recognises and facilitates the challenges irregular body clocks bring.
We hope this continues under the new management, and with the investment and improvements to the infrastructure, this would rate a 5 star.
Amazing and we truly hope we achieve the 5 stars, with the Care we provide and the upcoming improvements within the building.
