Although this is not a dementia care home (which my mum has), they treated her very well, with dignity and care. They kept in constant contact with myself, making sure everything was being put in place and contacted me straight away when a doctor had to be called.
I would highly recommend the staff and care home for putting the resident's needs and welfare at the top of the list. They are kind and caring as you would want for your relative.
We appreciate the time you have taken to give us your feedback. It is always so nice for us to hear family members feel so at ease knowing their loved one is receiving such a high level of attention and care. Please let us know if there is anything else we can do to make your mum's stay as good as possible.
I booked to stay after major surgery for two weeks and found it restful - great staff, and it allowed me to start my recovery before going home. I found the medical staff excellent and very caring.

Thank you for your feedback. We are pleased to hear words such as "excellent" and "caring" used to describe the support our staff provide. Thank you for choosing The Sidcup for your stay.

My father recently spent his last few days at The Sidcup Care Home. Being a new resident, the staff did not get a chance to know Dad, or us, before he passed away, yet the care and compassion shown were exceptional. From the moment we entered the home to look around, when choosing a place for Dad, there was an immediate feeling of warmth and welcome. Choosing a home for a loved one is difficult but The Sidcup is definitely worth a visit to get a feel for the home.
Thank you for your kind words. We are glad to help you and your family through such a difficult time and are pleased to hear the care and compassion shown were exceptional. Hopefully, you will go away from this feeling like your father received the best possible care.
Every staff member we have met this week are kind and caring towards my mum.
Although it is very early days, my initial thoughts are that she will be treated well and shown kindness. Which is so important to all of the family.
Thank you...

My aunt has recently passed away at the age of 99. She was a resident in The Sidcup Care Home for two and a half years. She was always treated with the utmost kindness and care. On her passing, the staff have been very helpful during this difficult time.

I and my family would like to thank The Sidcup Care Home for the great care that they took of my mother. The whole team at the home are marvellous, professional caring people. She was at the home for over four years until her passing in December. The whole team there from reception, nurses, carers, entertainment team, housekeeping, catering, administration to hairdressing did a wonderful job. My mother was very happy and well cared for at the home, please pass on our thanks to all of the staff there.
Thank you for taking the time to leave us your lovely review. Hopefully knowing how well your mother was cared for gives you comfort now. Thank you again for your kind review.
Our family were very happy with the care that Mum received at The Sidcup Care Home. All of the staff on the Granville floor and the reception and admin staff were very kind and the fact that Mum was kept comfortable and cared for will be a comfort to us going forward.

On the surface, the staff are very friendly and look efficient. Appearances can be deceptive. My mother was in there for 3 weeks. She had been feeling unwell and we both asked for a doctor on several occasions.
We went in to bring her home for the day and as soon as I saw her lying on the bed I knew something was seriously wrong. She was contorted and delirious. She couldn't even stand up! I immediately decided to take her to A&E.
The staff suddenly came out of nowhere and were all flustered and in panic. I gave them a piece of my mind and we left.
On arrival at the hospital. My mother was found to be severely dehydrated and with an extremely high rate of infection in her blood. These people are supposed to care!
I made an official Complaint. Waste of time. There are also no safety measures for visitors. We walked in and cleared her room without being questioned at all! I could have been anybody!
Thank you for your feedback we do take all concerns seriously. We are aware of this concern and that a response has been issued in line with our complaints policy.

I went into The Sidcup care home in October for a week. Although I never saw a manager, the staff were friendly and caring. Night-time staff lacked experience putting on the sheath at night, which resulted in wet beds for me for six nights and made me feel very disappointed. I didn't get offered a shower every day. Although I could shower myself, I was waiting to be told it was my turn.
Thank you for taking the time to leave your review. We have a genuine regard for all of our residents and our residents' health and well-being are an absolute priority. We will discuss your feedback with the home's manager to help them continually improve their service.

This seems to be a very well-run and caring home. It is always clean and tidy and the staff are excellent. My mother has only been there since the end of May and they have done everything possible to assist her and keep me informed. I am unable to comment on the activities as Mum is bedridden and therefore, does not join in.
Thank you for your lovely review. We hope The Sidcup care home did everything possible to make the transition as easy as possible. We hope to continue providing your loved one with the best possible care.
When I arrived to visit Dad, he was upset for some reason. There were two lady carers with him, like a pair of angels trying to console him. I was impressed. The carers are so kind and patient with Dad and no doubt, with the other residents there too. They are always nice to me too.

It's such a lovely home, the staff are so caring and attentive and really are a credit to the home and the company. Both my grandparents were residents here until their passing and it really was a lovely place for them to spend their final days. I do hope that all the staff are praised for their hard work, care and compassion that they showed every day to my Nanny. Please thank everyone for the great job that they do.

Food is important to people who are bed-bound. Poor service of food, and not knowing how to provide food to a person in bed is serious. Food served late and cold is very bad. Failing to provide what was ordered is also bad. Food that is overcooked is uneatable. In this home all the above has become...
Food is important to people who are bed-bound. Poor service of food, and not knowing how to provide food to a person in bed is serious. Food served late and cold is very bad. Failing to provide what was ordered is also bad. Food that is overcooked is uneatable. In this home all the above has become worse over the last three years, despite bringing this to the attention of the management, there has been no change. They just don't care. Staff shortage makes life difficult for occupants.

My mother has been a resident since December 2021. There were teething issues in the beginning due to covid restrictions and issues with my mum's care but my initial feelings have been overturned by one or two staff members who really care and can appreciate my feelings as well as my mum's. All in all, it is now a very good experience for me and my mum.
Thank you for your feedback. It is nice to hear that your feelings have been overturned due to the staff members that take the time to appreciate not only your mum's feelings but yours as well. We hope to continue providing your loved one with the best possible care.
