Review from Ina R (Daughter of Resident) published on 2 July 2025 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
Mum has been a resident at Sunnyside since Nov 21 . The home is a credit to the Manager and Staff it has a lovely atmosphere ,its clean and doesn't smell .The staff are warm and friendly and mum is treated like family .
Mum has vascular dementia and would I feel be lost in a larger home . At Sunnyside her care is tailored to her needs.

It was a massive decision when mum had to go into 24hr care, but choosing Sunnyside was the best decision we have made. Mum has never asked to come home and that in itself speaks volumes. I would recommend Sunnyside.
↩Reply from WARREN PARRATT, Registered Manager at Sunnyside
Thank you for the lovely feedback and comments which we really appreciate. It is a pleasure to care for your Mum. We are really pleased that you chose Sunnyside as a place for your Mum to live. Kind regards

Review from John S (Son of Resident) published on 17 December 2015 Submitted via Postal Card•
Overall Experience
My mother has resided at Sunnyside for 15 years. During this time there has been an occasional turnover of staff, most of which I can say have given wonderful service and taken good care of my mother who is now 98. Sunnyside has always had a friendly and homely atmosphere and I hope that this will continue here and when the new home replaces it.

- Outstanding - The service is performing exceptionally well.
- Good - The service is performing well and meeting our expectations.
- Requires Improvement - The service isn't performing as well as it should and we have told the service how it must improve.
- Inadequate - The service is performing badly and we've taken action against the person or organisation that runs it.
- Not rated - we have not yet rated this area of the service, this is normally because the assessments we have carried out have been focused on other key questions.
