Overall Experience
The nursing home feels home from home for both relatives and residents. The staff really are wonderful and look after their charges like family. The home offers a friendly and really caring environment. They also offer activities for the residents to try and improve interest and joining in. Would recommend this home to anyone looking for a family-friendly and good care/nursing home.

Overall Experience
Thank you to all the staff here who supported us for 3 years with our mum and helped us see Mum through to the end.
A big shout out for the amazing staff who even sang to Mum last night and were with us all the way and all the healthcare staff.

Review from Michael (Grandson of Resident) published on 15 September 2015 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
Jesmund completed their excellent level of care for my Grandfather today, when three of their staff attended his funeral. Given the number of people who must pass through the home it is a great comfort to know staff care enough to come to see him off. Their care has always been excellent treating him with great dignity and care, making his last and difficult few years as comfortable as possible. He was always treated like a human being and not just another body passing through.
The home feels like a home more than others I've been to. It is kept very very clean. Staff always provided tea coffee and nibbles when I visited and my Granddad was also able to enjoy a beer or a whisky now and again, making his experience of living there as good as possible. Staff also were open to suggestions and help, introducing occasional light background music when my mum brought a CD in. They kept in touch with my Mum regularly and were always polite and helpful. We can't be happier that he was able to spend his last days there.
