The quality and facilities in the new wing are excellent.
So we consider my mum is in a very safe and secure place, which is meeting her needs.
I have been impressed by the friendliness of every one of the staff, and by their professionalism. Nothing is too much trouble for them. The Home Manager in particular has been extremely helpful whenever I have had a query or a question. I have not been around at mealtimes or when they are carrying...
During my career in health care I visited many care homes. In my opinion the overall standard of care, professionalism and friendliness of The Poplars puts it up there with the best.

The manager showed great empathy both with mum and with my sister/me as next of kin, even visiting us in hospital.
I have been very impressed by this care home. There are so many bad reports about homes but I have nothing but praise for this establishment. Mum's room is small but sufficient to manoeuvre and clean and tidy. It is well furnished and modern. My main praise is for the staff team - from top to toe -...
I have been very impressed by this care home. There are so many bad reports about homes but I have nothing but praise for this establishment. Mum's room is small but sufficient to manoeuvre and clean and tidy. It is well furnished and modern. My main praise is for the staff team - from top to toe - I hesitate to say 'bottom' because all team members work very well together to create a lovely caring, supportive and safe environment for residents. Mealtimes are sociable and staff take care to make sure everyone's needs are catered for. Overall a not unpleasant experience for Mum.
Food- excellent
Gardens- excellent
Room- sufficient. Not having dementia but having lung problems, 24hr heating and locked windows was a big problem. Shame no en-suite bathroom!
Bathroom facilities- very clean.

Mum has been at The Poplars since March and has benefited greatly with the attention and care she gets, and has gone up 2 sizes which isn't a bad thing! Just before Christmas she developed a chest infection and then pneumonia and had to stay in hospital for 4 days. The staff were all very...
I would also like to say how impressed I was with the time and effort that went into decorating the lounges and other areas, and all the social events that went on in the run up to both Christmas and New Year! It really did feel like home!
I though the home was warm and well looked after. I was fed well and looked after very well.

When I last saw my mother 6 months ago she was in a very confused and depressed mental state following a stroke. This visit, from where I live, I found her cheerful, alert and much more sociable than I have seen her in decades. I credit the amazingly kind, sensitive staff of Poplars for this turnaround and particularly the Manager, who is clearly a superior leader and sets a tone of humor, compassion and encouragement for residents to be their best, within the confines of their physical and mental abilities. My mother feels safe, cared for as a person and able to contribute to the welfare of others not as capable as her. Thank you to the Manager and all the staff.

The staff at The Poplars have looked after my father for the past 1yr 10months, he has been taken care with 1st class service, caring and respect despite being in the later stages of Alzheimer's. During the last week of my father's life the family had to make a decision to move him or leave him where he lived at The Poplars. We chose to keep him in The Poplars. All the staff kept us informed about his health, they also cared for the family and treated him with respect during his time. I am very grateful I was informed of his deterioration and this enabled our family to be with dad as he passed away. They also cared for our needs.

I've worked in the care industry for over 18 years, in a wide range of sectors. I have experience in working with individuals with mental health issues, learning disabilities, and elderly care.
I started my career as a care assistant and worked my way up to home manager. Alongside that, I have also achieved my Level 2 and 3 in health and social care, and have more recently completed my Level 4 lead practitioner qualification. Furthermore, I enjoy learning and developing my skills, and I am always keen to do additional training.
I chose to work in the care sector, as I particularly enjoy working with the elderly. I love hearing their stories, sharing a moment of reminiscence, or even having a good old dance. Likewise, I also enjoy problem-solving and ensuring that, as a team, we are delivering and striving for high-quality care.
Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my family and spoiling my grandchildren is my favourite thing to do. We enjoy going to the cinema, spending time on the beach, or travelling further afield to visit family.
I'm often found reading when at home, as it helps me to unwind, and my favourite genre is a good crime novel, which keeps me engaged and hooked on a twist. I also enjoy true stories of any kind and getting lost in the story.
