Review from Shirley B (Wife of Resident) published on 16 November 2018 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 2.0 out of 5
I was asked to provide snacks and drinks and washing facilities.
The staff are not very friendly or welcoming.
Every time a resident got up they were told to sit down.
I was not allowed to be in the room while they washed my husband.
They refused to wash him until I went.
Not enough exercise for
the residents.
Safeguarding issue in process about bruising on my husband's arm.

We do not agree with the comments. We encourage families to provide their loved one with favourite snacks if possible. We provide washing facilities for the residents, those families who are not able…read more

Friendly staff, from first visit my mother has received wonderful care and kindness nothing is too much bother for staff, willing and helpful to please residents. Visitors always offered tea or coffee etc with a smile. Staff seem very happy. Owner always available for a chat. Could do with an internal
paint up but understand this is difficult with elderly residents.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Mum stayed for 2 weeks respite care, all staff were kind, considerate, friendly and polite. Mum was comfortable and relaxed during her stay.
Staff said hello to residents at the beginning of their shift and said goodbye as they left.
The home is clean and tidy, all residents were addressed by name.
We would have no hesitation in using this home again.
Mum is partially sighted and has mild dementia, she has difficulty standing/sitting/getting out of bed. Staff were aware of her needs.

I am so pleased that mum went to this care home, she is well looked after always clean and presentable, the staff are really brilliant with the residents, and answers family questions and really friendly, they can't do enough for the residents and their family. All the residents get on well together.
The home is clean and tidy, and the meals are really nice too. The owner has done a very good job and has a great team working for her. I cannot fault them in anything they are great.

This experience was our first foray into a nursing home and although initially unsure, all of the staff in the Florence Nursing Home were delightful in their dealings and care of my aunt.
My aunt was there for recuperation after a fall and they helped her through this.

My wife spent eight weeks at the nursing home. The responsible person and manager were very understanding and supportive during the respite period. All the staff were very helpful and enabled my wife to achieve a good level of recovery.

Review from Ben C (Brother of Resident) published on 6 May 2016 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Florence Nursing Home cared for my sister initially on a respite basis and then for 4 years as a resident. She had Downs Syndrome and suffered from other medical ailments. The owner, Managers and Staff of Florence were so kind and supportive and my sister really considered it her home. She enjoyed a
great relationship with all, even when she was a little obstinate - which she could be from time to time! My family and I are most grateful to all at the Home who cared for her over the years.

Florence Nursing home is a very friendly and caring home. The food is varied and tasty. Laundry service is excellent. The nursing staff are very patient an caring to the residents and some entertainment is provided. I feel that the doctor with whom my sister and other patients had was not as attentive
as we would have liked.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mum recently went into Florence Nursing Home in Bromley for a week to enable me to have a much needed break. I was not looking forward to leaving her as you hear of so many negative things. This home however was clean, welcoming and all staff I came across were friendly, professional and helpful.
My mum was clean and tidy when I went to collect her today and to my absolute amazement made the comment "Am I going home? Oh I wouldn't have minded staying here." Her clothes were clean, I cannot express how impressed I was with the quality of care provided here. Would have no hesitation in using then again in the future.

As my mum is in bed 24 hours a day I cannot comment on the activities, as for all other amenities, we are very happy. The staff are very kind and helpful, mum seems as happy as you can hope as it's not her own home. Also find the home very clean and no unpleasant smells.

Accommodation and facilities are adequate, but some modernisation desirable. Staff very good, well skilled and caring, but hard pressed so bed bound residents have to wait.
Food very good in quality, quantity and variety, and served in a friendly way. Owner and senior management approachable and on
request if possible. Also good cleaning and hygiene.

Mum has been in the home for 2 years, I have found the staff to be fantastic. The home is exceptionally clean. Mum is bed bound so don't get involved in the activities.

My sister was a resident in Florence Nursing Home from March 2006 until her death in December 2015. In that time she was looked after and cared for with the utmost respect and dignity, and all of the staff are lovely people. She was always kept clean and tidy and whenever we visited we were also treated
with respect. I would recommend this nursing home to anybody that has somebody that needed to be looked after. I sincerely thank all the staff for their kindness and love they gave her in the years she was with them.
