Staff do seem to have too much paperwork to do and it would be good if they were free of it to offer more care and communication to residents.
Thank you for your kind comments regarding the care of your Mother and the Staff at the Home. The Nurses and carers have a legal responsibility to complete their records on each shift to ensure the safety of our Residents and themselves. I can, however, reassure you that we have the correct staffing on each unit.
The care given to my father is exceptional. They treat him with love and affection, nothing is out of the question.

As my first visit to Admirals Reach, I was so amazed at how lovely the houses were but more so, of the staff who look after the residents, they were so caring and kind to all.

My father has been in Admirals Reach for over 3 years, I visit him at least twice a week. The nursing and care he receives is of the highest standards and is always delivered with respect, understanding and dignity. We are made to feel welcome at all times and we feel fully involved in his life.

It is about independence - that 's the first impression and they help in maintaining your own standards just like home. This is what is highly inviting. Yes, independence that's the key - remarks can tell you this and by walking around the premises what do you see? Everyone doing their own thing...

Yes, independence that's the key - remarks can tell you this and by walking around the premises what do you see? Everyone doing their own thing all inspired by dreams of their own by making one big company. There you have it, independence in your hands.
Extremely kind and caring staff at a very difficult time. Thank you.

I am impressed by the caring attitude of the staff and the social atmosphere in The Mountbatten House Unit. Also, the arrangement for serving meals is very nice and creates a convivial mealtime atmosphere. The meals are in general very good.

The standard of care that our Mum received whilst a resident of Jellicoe House in Admirals Reach, a dementia unit, was exemplary.
Each member of the multidisciplinary team; qualified nursing staff, care assistants, activity leaders, cleaning, laundry and catering staff strived to see mum as the individual that she was and to care for her accordingly.
After having taken mum out for a ride/walk, getting her back in was never a problem as the staff understood that a fresh cup of tea and some biscuits always worked wonders!
The regular visit of the GP from the local practice was reassuring and valued as was their support after Mum's death on the 17th February.
The atmosphere that pervaded the unit was one of love and compassion, fun and laughter and in no time mum's family had a host of new friends in the staff there supporting us through the night and into the early morning as mum passed peacefully away.
Staff extremely kind and caring.
