I was delighted when Mum moved into Queenswood in April 2016. I had good reports of the home and found the staff to be very caring. Mum's room overlooked the lovely gardens. Mum was encouraged to join in activities and I enjoyed meeting the other residents. The dining experience was probably the only negative. However, following a change of management, I became increasingly concerned with the way the home was run. Staff turnover, which had been minimal, suddenly started to increase and when concerns were raised with the management they were ignored and staff continued to leave. Agency staff were regularly used to provide the care within the home. Further concerns were raised by other relatives and we were assured the situation was being addressed. In December 2017 I moved my Mum to a different home and none of the management came to say "Goodbye" or wish her well. It has now been made very clear that I am no longer welcome to visit the residents I have known for over 18 months in the home.

Thank you for taking the time to acknowledge Queenswood Care Home and its surrounding gardens; this has also been appreciated by the Garden Trail that was held at the home in June and was very successful with almost 250 people visiting. This is just one of the activities that we provide for our residents and local community.There were areas in the home that were known to require improvement, as identified by us and our regulators, and as such a new management team were appointed to bring about the improvements needed. Not everyone embraces change in the same way and as a result, some staff decided to move on to pastures new which meant for a short time, suitably qualified and approved agency staff were used at the home thus providing consistent staffing levels and maintaining the safety of our residents.
We fully appreciate we have a lot of family and friends of our residents that visit the home on a regular basis, and it is nice that we can accommodate them joining in at Queenswood wherever possible. It is of great benefit to our residents that family members often make friends with other residents when visiting their own relatives and we welcome this at every opportunity. We also acknowledge that when residents move on from Queenswood, we must take into account our remaining residents' wishes in respect of whether or not they wish to continue being visited by other relatives. In every case, we will always seek their consent before allowing access to Queenswood.
The home is very good. The staff are very helpful. If you don't like the meals provided they will find something you like.

It is important that we give our residents choices, and good to see that you have highlighted this in your review regarding the food at Queenswood.
Following a 5 week shut down due to norovirus we eventually saw the in-law mid-month. Residents obviously a bit down as they had no visitors. The staff were doing their best. They had a very late Xmas/New year party, which perked up the residents.

The closure of Queenswood came at a very bad time (over the Christmas and New Year Holidays) but we were pleased to celebrate this later than usual to bring in the new year. This was very successful and everyone enjoyed the event.
Better communication with family members on issues such as mobility/continence.

Thank you for your review especially around the activities at Queenswood. I am pleased to announce that we have now appointed another Activities Coordinator to work alongside our other Activities Coordinator as well as the volunteers at the Home.

It just felt like home. From the first moment after viewing the rooms available, with the most helpful of staff, big thanks to the senior member, the decision was made, yes.
Everything was explained throughout very well, obviously, they had to assess him and likewise for himself. We were asked to join him for his first lunch there and meet his dining companions, which I thought was an easing in process all around and went very well.
He became permanent two weeks later, which in himself there was an improvement. The staff are so caring, thoughtful and nothing is too much trouble anytime night or day. With the support of the staff, his quality of life greatly improved. His mobility went from using a wheelchair to self confidently walking with a three wheeled walker, his cheeky grin had returned...
They could not do anymore if they tried.
It was a pleasure that we had the opportunity to look after your friend and we are so pleased that we helped him have a quality of life. He participated in many of the activities and seemed really happy and settled even though he was unsure at first. I will pass on your comments to the team.
My mother went to stay at Queenswood on 18th/1/17 initially for respite care. At the end of her two week stay, she had already decided she did not want to leave.

My mother went to stay at Queenswood on 18th/1/17 initially for respite care. At the end of her two week stay, she had already decided she did not want to leave. Apart from a 10 day period when she was hospitalised she spent the remainder o her life at Queenswood, passing away on 9/3/17. During all her time there I cannot praise highly enough the wonderful care and consideration she received from every single member of staff. The knowledge that my mother was receiving such superb care was a great comfort to myself and the members of the family. I cannot recommend Queenswood highly enough. Thank you to one and all.

My mum has been at Queenswood since April 2015. Initially she came in for 2 weeks respite whilst my wife and I went on honeymoon. On our return she refused to go home, as she enjoyed being at Queenswood so much. Around Christmas time she was poorly, the staff and other residents were fantastic,...
My mum has never been the happiest person in the world, but I can honestly say that this is the happiest and most content that I have ever seen her. She gets a lot of choices of activities, outings, good quality food and most importantly to her, the company of other people and knowing that there is always someone around if she needs help.
The staff always make me and my family feel welcome when we visit and we have made friends with staff and other residents.
I would highly recommend Queenswood to anyone.
