They try to entertain the residents as much as possible and Interact with them to keep them stimulated. The food always looks appetising but my dad isn't a big eater and that is my only criticism that they could put less on his plate.

My mum has been living at Muriel Street Care Home for a month now and at first we had a few tearful phone calls home, but now she is loving it and would not want to leave. She has made friends, she loves her room and we made it her own with quite a few of her things from home, including her own TV...
The staff are lovely, they look after the residents well and are all very friendly, approachable and very attentive. They even sort out any medical appointments that my mum needs, taking her and being with her when we cannot.
The food looks good, they get a full-cooked breakfast in the mornings, a three-course roast dinner meal at lunch and a two-course meal in the evening, plus lots of tea/coffee/juice breaks with biscuits throughout the day and cocoa at night before bed.
She has had her hair/nails done in their on-site salon.
We are very happy that we chose Muriel Street for our mother.

The staff appeared to be very caring, interested in Mum as a person and friendly. There was always someone around. Internal communication was a little lacking on her last day as the staff on duty didn't seem to know she was due to leave. Otherwise I had no issues with her care and would use them again. This is based on a just week's respite care and my rating reflects that.

Thank you very much for taking the time to write a review for Muriel Street, and for your lovely comments regarding our caring and friendly team. The team were so happy to care for your mum during her stay here and would have been delighted for her to stay longer. We apologise for the miscommunication, as the team on duty that day had thought she was staying for a second week. We hope you will consider Muriel Street again in the future should you need any further care and support for your mum.
Cannot say a bad word about the care home. My partner can be challenging but they cope very well with him. All the staff are very friendly with me also. Had a great Valentine’s Day, they gave my partner a rose to give to me which was so lovely.

My mother was a resident of Muriel Street for nearly six years before she passed away in January 2021, and during the time she spent in Muriel Street, she was always treated with the utmost respect, dignity, and affection. We as a family visited regularly and got to know the staff very well and always found them to be very caring and helpful. The home itself was always clean and welcoming and they coped tremendously well during the pandemic keeping the residents safe and families up to date via Facebook or video calls.
I appreciate the care given to my mother by the staff, especially during the current difficult situation (COVID). I am able to see her via video calls and also on Facebook. When I was able to visit in person, the staff were always welcoming. My mother is also comfortable in the centre and treats...

From the centre manager, his deputy, to the receptionist, the personal care people, the housekeeping, kitchen staff, medical staff, dining room staff, the lifestyle lead and team, they are all approachable, easy to locate, and so personable and friendly. Even the staff that have no direct responsibilities/duties are so involved and interested.
I feel so much like a team member with these professionals and they know my feelings about the care I expect to be given to my mum and that I only ever give my honest opinion.
I cannot express my gratitude enough to this incredible care home who have such high standards, not only in themselves but more so in the way which they care for the elderly residents. I highly recommend this care home.

This is an exceptional care home where my grandmother is living. The staff are all lovely people who go out of their way to look after their residents. They have been amazing during the pandemic, acting quickly to protect everyone and keeping families connected via Zoom calls and window visits. We have really felt the support from all of the carers and managers and can completely trust them to look after my grandmother's wellbeing, they are very genuine caring people. We hugely appreciate the personal touches, such as building a photo montage on my grandmother's bedroom wall while we couldn't visit in person. I couldn't thank them enough or recommend them more!

I’ve worked for Care UK for a long time, but I find every day still brings fresh challenges and new things to learn. There’s always plenty to do in my role as home manager, and it’s important to be a good leader, to be approachable, to be committed to the highest standards, to be flexible, and to have a sense of humour!
I always look forward to the afternoons at Muriel Street. I’ve generally completed the tasks on my list and met various deadlines, and I like to go out on the floor to see the happy residents and ensure the team is all okay.
Quality care is my passion, and that’s what keeps me motivated every day. I love being able to make a difference to older people’s lives and to ensure they’re 100% satisfied. I’m always striving to gain superb feedback from residents and relatives about the home and the care we provide.
In my free time, I enjoy visiting the museums and galleries around the capital, and eating out in new places.
