Our family were very pleased with the care our mum received in the 3 years and 4 months living at Fir Trees before she died in February 2017. The staff were always lovely and went that "extra mile" particular mention must go to the night staff for their kindness and love for our mum when we could not be with her. Particularly over the last year, staffing ratios have improved so there is now time for the little extras that contribute to making residents lives as enjoyable as possible. The food is fantastic - all the cooks do a great job to make meals appetising and nutritious. Thank you to everyone for the care and compassion.
Very caring and always someone on hand to see to my husband if needed. Clean, the food is very good and although he was only in for respite, they gave me a well earned rest knowing he was being cared for in a good manner all round. I needed respite again but unfortunately, there were no vacancies.

I would highly recommend Fir Trees to any family.

My mother came to Firtrees initially for respite, being in the later stages of Alzheimer's and is totally dependent on others for her every need. I or my brother visit daily with my father. Firtrees has a fantastic young manager with a passion for her job and the well-being of the residents. She has improved staffing levels and staff morale and their standards are high. All residents are treated with dignity and respect and staff chat and have a bit of banter with them where appropriate. The home has no unpleasant smells and is constantly being cleaned, mopped, vacuumed and tidied. Residents are always clean and well groomed and seem settled in their environment. Food is tasty and plentiful with a choice of dishes with snacks and drinks regularly offered. Already Mum has required a doctor and that was dealt with promptly, so has requesting the speech therapist and optician to reassess mum's sight. It has been difficult to come to terms with the fact we cannot care for Mum ourselves any longer but feel reassured that she is in good hands at Firtrees.
Would definitely recommend the care home. My sister has learning difficulties and other issues including dementia. She is well looked after.

This is the first time my wife has been in respite care and it was very nice. The staff were very helpful. Will go again.

You have highlighted a concern around clothing, and we apologise for any upset or distress this caused.
We recommend all items of clothing are named – with labels, name tapes, or similar – so that staff members can identify which items of clothing belongs to each Resident, and to prevent losses. If you would like assistance with this or anything similar, please do speak to a member of staff at the home.
You have also highlighted concerns about the food on offer at the home, and apologise if we have fallen short of the high standards we aspire to.
Making sure Residents have a choice of their favourite foods is really important to us. We record individual preferences to make sure our fresh food menus are created around what they want most. We are delighted to welcome families and loved-ones to share in mealtimes, and the Sunday roast is a special time at many of our homes.
Thanking you again for taking the time to provide really helpful feedback about the home. We value all feedback and ensure it is recorded and acted upon.

Always a warm and friendly atmosphere. The staff are always willing to help, even when busy. Not only do they look after the residents they look after families too, by easing any worries or confusion that occur at a time when having to face distress and upheaval is at its highest. Thank you Fir Trees for making the transition as painless as possible. Mum seems a lot more relaxed and cared for now.
