Once again 5-star care and service.
The food was well prepared and served. Activities were varied and inclusive. Nursing, care staff, dining staff and volunteers were always happy to support and understanding of needs.
Hope to return as she felt safe and secure thank you, everyone.
Thank you for your kind words which I will pass on to the Mais Team. We hope to welcome your wife back soon. Best wishes to you and your family.
Mum has been a resident for 10 years now and is very happy and well cared for, giving our family peace of mind. A big thank you to the manager and all the team for coordinating such a precious and memorable day.
We are so pleased you were able to come and enjoy such a memorable day. She looked very elegant as always in her gold, it's hard to believe she is the remarkable age of 101. Best wishes from the Mais House team.
After 4 months in the home, my assessment of the home came about. Firstly on my arrival I was so ill I did not know where I was. My weight had gone from 15.5 stone to 21 stone. I was drowning in water, I had several falls, a stroke followed by Covid whilst in hospital. On my arrival back at the home the medical team along with the caring staff decided that I had been using Insulin. My doctors and chemist were changed indirectly after being hospitalised. I lost several pounds on my return to the home. Plenty of dedicated care and attention.
It was really nice. The residents were kind and friendly. I found the staff to be very friendly and hospitable. Nothing was too much trouble. I would very much like to come and stay again. The gardens were beautiful and I really enjoyed choir practice.
Thank you for taking the time to write a review for us. We are so pleased you enjoyed your stay and look forward to seeing you back in the near future. Best wishes to you and your family.
My brother spent the last months of his life under the excellent care of the staff at Mais House. My family and I will be forever grateful to the nurses, carers and general staff who took such pains to make him comfortable and understand his complex condition. Mais House is a very well-run home but what makes it unique is the sense of camaraderie, the teamwork and the genuine kindness of the staff. Visitors are always welcome and the various events are good fun. I cannot recommend it highly enough.
Thank you for taking the time to give such a lovely review. It was a pleasure to have your brother here with us at Mais. Although he was here a relatively short time the team enjoyed getting to know and bring out his character. I know one of our amazing care team particularly enjoyed the time she...
My father was a resident of Mais House for only a few months. I can honestly say he could not have received better care. The staff were all so caring and understanding of his needs. They also supported us as a family, and when he passed away, could not have been more empathetic and understanding. From the manager down to the laundry staff, all were very pleasant, friendly and supportive. I am so pleased he spent his last days in such an amazing place.
Thank you for taking the time to leave such a warm review. It was a pleasure to look after your father and pleased you and your family felt supported during such a difficult time. With best wishes to you all from the team at Mais House.
Her room, I was able to make it into her own home. All she needed was there with her. Nothing was too much trouble for any of you to help Mum adapt to her new life with you all.
You have all been amazing at taking care of not just Mum, but us all as a family - I felt you were my family - I felt Mais House was my home. I felt supported and loved each time I visited. Thank you for all you have done for our beautiful Mum and us as a family.
Bless each and every one of you!
Thank you for leaving such a wonderful review. It is always appreciated to know what we do makes a difference to those in our care and to their families. Your mum was very dear to the team here. I will pass this on to the whole team. We look forward to welcoming you back to Mais House in the future. With very best wishes to you and your family.
Really good services, we had lunch and it was good.
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We always love to welcome families and friends to Mais. I will pass your comments on to our Catering team.
This is a really good event. The staff are very welcoming and helpful. The food is excellent and the entertainment engages all residents and their families. It is great to see other members of the community being part of the event.
Thank you we are really pleased you enjoyed the event. It is always lovely to welcome friends and family into the home, We look forward to seeing you and your family at more planned social events and activities throughout the year.
I have two friends who have been resident in Mais House for some months. They are a married couple and have expressed to me how well they have been taken care of and enjoy some of the many activities available at the care home. I am impressed by the friendliness and helpfulness of the staff and management. The atmosphere is a welcoming one. I have been there at meal times on occasions and it is always good with choices offered.
The food and facilities are excellent and different activities are well-organised every day.
Thank you for taking the time to leave such a positive review. We are pleased your dad has settled at Mais. I will pass your comments to the rest of the team. Thank you.
The food is amazing. Staff cannot do enough. It's a joy to visit my friend. Activities on offer are well throughout. Wonderful home-from-home care home. Well done to everyone at Mais House.
Kind regards.
We have visited our friend quite a few times. She always seems happy and contented. Staff are always on hand and helpful, nothing is too much trouble.
Kind regards.
I am very well treated at Mais House. The food is good and ample amount. The activities are good and varied, I am able to partake in them. Future events look good.
Thank you for leaving such a lovely review.
I had an enjoyable time at Mais House. All the staff were most helpful and the facilities fine. This is the second weekly satu there, and I hope to be able to stay again, allowing my daughter another respite.
Kind regards.
Staff and management are polite and friendly, couldn't do enough for a person. Would use again if needed to.
Kindest regards,
Susan and team.
My dad and I were very happy with the home and all the care the staff gave with a friendly smile or word. Was offered a drink when visiting. The room and home were very clean and no bad odours hanging around. Dad did join in with all the activities offered but the choice was very good.
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We are pleased your dad enjoyed his time with us and hope to see you both again in the future.
Wonderful, well-organised afternoon. Very friendly, helpful staff and helpers. So well thought out.
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We are so pleased you enjoyed the afternoon. We look forward to seeing you again soon.
My experience of visiting this home has always been extremely positive. The interaction between residents and staff is always positive and respectful. Nothing is too much trouble. My communication with all staff has been informative and reassuring. The atmosphere in the home is welcoming and calm, a pleasure to visit. Supportive of all the residents' needs.
Kind regards,
Susan and team.
My mother celebrated her 100th birthday yesterday at Mais House. She has been a resident there for over 7 years. The staff put on a superb party for her family, friends and residents. Her favourite entertainers performed, delicious afternoon tea in a beautifully decorated garden. The sun shone! Mum and the family were certainly given a day to cherish forever. Our heartfelt thanks go to all the staff who made this possible.
Kindest regards,
Susan & team
