It's a horribly daunting situation when having to place a loved one into care (especially with the horror stories we have all heard about care homes). Stanhope made that whole process much more bearable and we very quickly realised we could trust mum to them. We still have a very active involvement in mum's care, no decision is made without consulting us first but we know that we can also seek the staff's advice on what is best, because they know mum so well, are very experienced with dementia sufferers and genuinely have mum's best interests at heart. My sisters and I must have said 1,000 times how lucky we were to have secured a place at Stanhope for our mum.
Thank you for your lovely feedback, it is much appreciated.
I have nothing but praise for the standard of care that is provided for my mum, all care staff have treated my mum with the utmost dignity and respect that I could wish for and what was such a difficult discussion to put my mum into full-time care was made bearable with much support and empathy provided by all staff.
I visit my mum most days and frequently witness staff going the extra mile to care for, entertain, and understand the complex needs of the residents. All residents are always clean and attention to little details are very obviously made.
In my capacity as a community nurse, I visit many residential homes daily and I've witnessed bad environments and practices, I have no hesitation in recommending Stanhope as a wonderful, clean, and caring environment that provides support and empathy for residents and relatives through their very difficult journey of dementia. Thank you, Stanhope.
Thank you for your lovely feedback, it is much appreciated.
Our lovely mum has vascular dementia. A room became available and our mum found her new home. The'hotel' as mum refers to it, is beautiful and every consideration, in order to make the residents feel comfortable, is given. We cannot praise the staff too highly; they do a magnificent job under extreme circumstances. Every single carer treats our mum and all the other patients with respect, with dignity and more especially with love. Cuddles and kisses and a gentle squeeze of their hand are normal gestures given freely every day. Patience is shown to everyone but more importantly to the people that need the extra assistance. Our mum is now one of these, and the attention she gets from all the staff is heart-warming. Our mum is the most important person in our lives and to have to leave her here every day should break our hearts but now we know she is safe, cared for, fed, clean and most importantly loved. Meadowcroft/Stanhope Court has been the answer to our prayers.
This home has no idea how to cope with a dementia patient whose dementia increases over time. We specifically asked the managers of Stanhope Court when we were looking into this home "As my fathers dementia increases what will happen". The managers assured us that this was not a problem and they could look after my father through this to End of Life. However my fathers dementia did increase and at the first signs of 'trouble' all the managers were interested in was getting my father out of the home so as their 'neck wouldn't be on the line if something happened.
This home is a great home and the carers are FIRST CLASS.
However be aware, as soon as the dementia increases the managers will go down the route of evicting your loved one.
