The Gardens Care Home

All staff and management at the home are professional, caring and want to do the best for my 95 year old Dad who was recently admitted. He has a lovely room and has settled in well, despite my fears that he wouldn't. They have also taken the time to listen to my concerns and have given me reassuring updates on Dad's progress as a result of which I feel confident that he is safe in their hands.

I've always found the staff to be very friendly and helpful. They always respond to any requests or queries which I have regarding my husband. Management have made us both very welcome.

I have visited friends in various nursing homes and this one is without a doubt the finest.

Overall I have found the Carers and Management including service personal at The Gardens Care home very kind, caring, helpful and efficient in what they do. It was the Local Council, some 18 months ago, who placed Mum in this Care Home for her own safety whilst I was away which at first was hard for me to accept but having visited the Care many times I am 100% satisfied that she is in the right place. I feel she is safe in a warm friendly environment and I know she is happy, and content, which means so very much to me and my family.

We was recommended this home and would happily recommend it to others.

Mum has been in the care of the staff of the Gardens for 2 1/2 years. Every member of staff, from management to house keeping show so much care and dedication to providing the support she needs. I cannot express my thanks to them enough. What was the most difficult decision we ever had to make was the right one for mum.

My mother has been a resident for 2 1/2 years, I live abroad and visit 3 times a year. I see every time a change in her dementia, which is continually assessed and dealt with appropriately by staff. She is always clean and well looked after, she is happy and the staff have a good relationship with her and know her needs. She responds to the staff well and enjoys various activities that are provided. Her physical health needs are dealt with promptly and appropriately and we are kept updated at the time. I am very happy with all aspects of the home and staff and thank them for their care.

Excellent staff who are kind and always helpful to any request made. The atmosphere is good and the residents seem to be happy. Very clean and the meals are of a high quality. I would recommend The Gardens to anyone.

Over the 3 years dad's condition has gradually deteriorated but each new challenge has been accepted and handled with care and compassion by the great team at The Gardens.

My mum-in-law has had a recent hosputal admission which was traumatic for all concerned. On return to the home the welcome we received was fantastic, she was quickly settled in and her needs dealt with. Her room was warm, clean and ready for her return and we were able to leave her knowing she was 'home', safe and loved. Hats off to your excellent staff.

Mother could not cope alone when my father died. She lost confidence socially, domestically and financially. Her will to live disappeared. I could not deliver the support she needed so we agreed to try The Gardens Care Home. She has been there for two years. They literally saved her life. She is treated as a valued member of the community, respected and independent. The team are her friends, they motivate her, keep her mind active and restored her dignity. She would not be here without them.

Most importantly to us, Mum is always clean, dressed and well-presented whatever day or time we turn up - a sure sign she is always well cared for.

Very lucky to find a care home that meets all my requirements for my wife.

The Gardens have been exemplary this month. Always a good and caring home but have gone the extra mile and far beyond in helping celebrate my mum's 101st birthday! Staff took Mum to Skegness for a day out, along the seafront, round the shops and for a fish'n'chips lunch - even buying Mum a 'kiss me quick' hat! She had a really brilliant birthday - something she has relieved time and time again with her visitors and these staff. Top marks all round!

The Gardens Care Home have been very attentive and caring towards my mum. Always friendly when we visit, and mum always comments on how great the food is.

Very kind staff - cleanliness excellent, mum always comments on how good the food is.

I came to stay here at The Gardens Care Home after spending many weeks in hospital. I really wanted to live at The Gardens permanently as I felt so looked after and cared for, I feel that I'm no longer lonely. I feel that all the staff here at The Gardens have become my friends, not just here to care for me, we talk and have a laugh. I'm so happy here at The Gardens, I like most of the food served and there is plenty of choice to choose from.

Thank you.

I cannot fault anything. Very happy, comfortable surroundings. Nothing is too much trouble for any care person.

The overall service I am receiving from The Gardens for my mum is extremely good. All her personal needs, dignity etc for her elderly age are well cared for. She has settled in and is very happy. All the staff I have dealt with and still dealing with are very caring understanding and extremely helpful with any needs my mum or I should want. Thank you The Gardens.
