Mum says she feels very comfortable and that the home is friendly. Mum feels her care is 'ok', very good. As her daughter, I feel she could do with more interaction. she is quite isolated in her room now that she is more disabled. She would benefit from some therapeutic interaction (music therapy) as she comes alive with music and singing. Possibly on a one-to-one basis or small group.

Thank you for your kind review of Miramar care home. We have a very varied programme for our well-being team which covers a variety of different interests of all residents. We hold entertainment from an external provider to provide live music to our residents on a regular basis which also incorporates the residents being able to join in during the music. All of our residents have a choice if they would like to participate in the well-being programme and if they prefer to have time in their apartment there is also structured 1:1 with the well-being team and the care team.
It is so reassuring to know that our beloved mum is so well looked after at Miramar Care Home. As soon as we arrive the reception team are so welcoming and know all the residents very well. The catering team take the time to chat with everyone and seem to know dietary preferences without referring...
The care team who look after Mum are simply brilliant. They have certainly found their vocation as they are all so caring, thoughtful and patient. They speak to residents as they would a valued friend and have a great connection with the diverse range of personalities. We were just amazed how they supported Mum when she returned from hospital and was very ill. We can't praise or thank them enough.
Thank you for your lovely review, our team always go above expectations to ensure our residents and families are well looked after.
I am delighted with the care that my wife receives. All of the staff understand her dementia and show kindness in all aspects of her life at Miramar. Also, they support the family in a very positive way having established a good relationship.

Thank you so much for the beautiful review, we always plan to make the birthdays so special at the Miramar for the residents and the families to enjoy.

Mum is well looked after and seems happy and settled. She enjoys the food and the activities and trips which are on offer. Staff were particularly helpful in getting her ready to leave early one morning for an operation. The receptionists are very friendly and helpful. There have been occasional communication problems, both in terms of managers being passed on and financial arrangements.

We are pleased to hear that your mum is happy and settled living with us, as part of our loving care community.

It has been a very warm welcome. My ninety-five year old mother was anxious about coming into a care home but her fears were allayed straight away. The care home is clean, spacious, well decorated and obviously, well run.

We contacted Miramar Care Home at very short notice as my 95-year-old mother-in-law needed to be discharged from the hospital. I was able to get the information I needed swiftly and my mother-in-law was admitted within 48 hours. Communication is good and I was able to check in regarding y mother-in-law if unable to visit. The home is a cut above others I have visited from the rooms, food and activities to, most importantly, the staff who have cared for her.

Staff are very helpful and kind. My mother clearly likes and trusts them. I have had a lot of contact by phone, as in-person visits have only just started. I am always rung back when I ask for updates, and the information I receive is comprehensive and sensitively given.

I have been a Registered Nurse for 12 years, starting my career in community nursing within the NHS before moving into care homes in 2018 and joining Miramar Care Home in 2024. My journey in care began at 17, working in a residential home in Larkfield, Kent. Alongside being a Registered Nurse, I am also a Specialist Practitioner District Nurse and was honoured to be awarded the title of Queen’s Nurse in 2022 by the Queen’s Nursing Institute.
At Miramar Care Home, I am proud to lead a compassionate and skilled team, ensuring every resident feels valued, safe, and cared for in a warm environment. I believe a positive atmosphere benefits both residents and staff.
Outside of work, I am married, have two sons and have a menagerie of pets, including dogs, cats, chickens, and parrots. I’m also a keen biker and currently ride a Harley-Davidson.
