We had a difficult situation, my mother has a stroke and was the main carers for my father who has dementia. Dad was placed into emergency respite at St Stephens care home which lasted for 6 weeks. Having dad in a care home was a new experience but the staff especially Andy were amazing, reassuring, caring and considerate. Dad has a package of care tailored for him. He has his daily paper and and a glass of wine with his supper.
We had a planned hospital appointment today and everything happened like clockwork, early breakfast, packed lunch (just in case) and on our return a choice of meal still...
The lasagne that was chosen, made in house, was delicious we hear!
Thank you for your kind words. Best wishes, Netty

My darling husband had to go into a care home in September 2023 as I could no longer cope alone with his Alzheimer's. As he was funded we had no choice of home and at first I was worried as St Stephens was not like the 'posh' homes I had seen. Tbh it was also a bit chaotic without a full time manager. BUT once Netty took control at the end of 2023 and gathered her fantastic team around her the place changed beyond recognition. Permanent staff were brought in and properly trained which reduced the pressure on the staff who stayed; the chaos of high turnover ended. The home was decorated and had new furniture and is now very pleasant. An enthusiastic social events team organise an amazing array of entertainments, crafts, visits from animals etc . The food has always been amazing (and plentiful!). Netty takes on board comments made by residents and families.
This home had become my husband's (& my) family until he passed away recently with the calm and compassionate support of all.
Thank you so much for your kind words and for recognising the hard work and effort that has gone into making these improvements. I'm so lucky to have an excellent team around me and that we get to make a difference every day. Best wishes, Netty.

My husband was diagnosed with dementia in January, his health rapidly declined, I spent months trying to care for him day and night until he was sectioned in May. Never having experienced dementia before it came as a dreadful shock. But from the time he was admitted to St Stephen's in July, the care he's received has been phenomenal, not only that but the support for me and my family has been amazing. I visit every day and it's wonderful to see the way all the staff care for all the residents, showing compassion and respect for every single person. The food they receive is made from fresh produce and plenty of it. There is a lovely garden, various activities arranged through the week, access to a Dr if necessary, regular visits from a podiatrist and a hairdresser. It's been such a comfort to me and my family to know how well he is being looked after. I can't thank them all enough for all their hard work and smiling faces.
Thank you so much for your heartfelt words. We are so pleased to hear that you and your husband feel supported, and I will be sure to share your feedback with the whole team.
The staff are wonderful and very helpful.

Excellent service and care for my mum, she's been here for nearly 11 years and her health is really good for her age, mobility is not so good but when she's nearly 93 I don't expect too much, still has sense of humour and that has a lot to do with the staff. Thank you for caring for her..

There seems to be a different activity going on every time I visit and when I've been at meal times the food always looks really good. It is a real weight of my mind to know mum is happy and being well looked after.
We are so pleased to hear that you are happy with the way your mum has settled in. I will be sure to show this wonderful feedback to our team here at St Stephens Care Home. Best Wishes, Jeanette.
