Review from P R (Brother of Resident) published on 9 May 2024 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

Our brother has been at Valdigarth care home for ten years. Brother is happy and very content. On visits, all staff are very welcoming and friendly, and you get a real family feeling. In summer months, the residents go on day trips or holidays, theatre or for food, etc.

Review from E E (Friend of Resident) published on 11 April 2024 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

We were the resident's carers until she went into a care home, but have kept in contact as they have no other family. The resident visits us once a month and she is clean, happy and well-presented, always talkative, telling me what activities she has been doing (swimming, tea, dance, gym, bingo, disco, the list is endless). We have good communication with the staff and we know if we have any concerns we can always approach them.

Review from Clifford F (Father of Resident) published on 4 March 2024 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience
I feel that my son is settled at Valdigarth and has a good relationship with staff and residents. The relationship with the staff which I have is relaxed whilst still being professional, which enabled me to be able to easily discuss matters of my son's care.

Above all I feel that my son enjoys living at Valdigarth and is happy there whilst the staff care for his welfare which is a great relief to myself.

Reply from Lorraine Marshall, Manager at Valdigarth

Review from K B (Sister of Resident) published on 1 March 2024 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

I have always found every member of staff to be kind, compassionate and fully committed to ensuring all residents lead a happy and fulfilling life. I am kept up to date with any health and well-being issues and always made to feel very welcome when I visit. Nothing we need as a family is ever dismissed and I feel confident my sibling is happy in their home and surrounded by a second caring family.

Ever since my sister arrived at Valdigarth, she has settled easier than anywhere else she has been. The home is very clean and staff are friendly and welcoming. The staff have time for residents and try to resolve any concerns promptly.
