Dad has dementia, so staff would ask him him he wanted to go into the dining room or sit in the chair, but he always said, "no". They would never pursue this so he didn't get out of bed at all for the 4 weeks he was there. His mobility has always been a problem, but they have made this worse through their lack of perseverance.
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience of our home. I'm very sorry to hear that your dad's time with us was not as happy as we would want for our residents and their families. Some of our residents, especially those coming from the hospital, are particularly vulnerable, and we try to put things in place to protect them as much as possible. This includes protecting our lunchtimes so we can maintain the dignity and support of residents who need additional help, and to avoid the distractions that guests can cause. We appreciate you raising these points now; we take all feedback seriously and will review your comments carefully. If you'd like to discuss any of this in further detail, a member of our leadership team would be happy to speak with you directly. We wish your dad all the best with his continued recovery.

I joined Gildawood Court as Home Manager in September 2020, after spending the last 15 years of my career in the care sector.
I first started in 2005 as a support worker for adults with learning disabilities, becoming a CQC Registered Manager in 2009. Since then, I have managed various care settings, including domiciliary, supported living, residential and also nursing before starting at Gildawood Court.
As Home Manager, I enjoy the variety and challenges which each day brings at a care home. I have been impressed with how the team at Gildawood Court genuinely know the residents as individuals and treats everyone with such care and respect.
It is my responsibility to ensure that our residents receive the best care possible, that they are listened to and that their needs are met. It is also really important that my staff are supported in their role to assist our residents. It is a team effort and we all need to be working together to ensure the development of the home is the best it can be for its residents, relatives and staff.
I am also looking forward to building strong relationships with the local community and being active in exploring the lovely surrounding area.
In my spare time, I like to take my dog for walks and relax on the sofa watching a good movie.
