Adelaide Nursing Home

My very good friend Terry was here fir almost 2 years until he passed away in augest with dementria the staff are wonderful right down to cleaners from top nursing staff they all do great job noting to much trouble we were very happy with care terry got and we shell miss visiting the home even though we were told pop in and see us which was lovley very down to earth home Highley recomend.

The home isn't too big, so we chatted with the staff and felt they had connected personally with Mum, it is always clean and bright, we were able to take items in from home that made the room feel familiar and homey, her laundry was always done to a high standard. Basically, everyone was willing to help to make her stay as comfortable as possible during her final weeks. Losing a loved one is a terribly difficult and emotional time, but everyone at Aldelaide helped to make it as smooth as possible.

My friend spent nearly 2 years in this home. The staff were always pleasant, available and approachable. When asked about her care my fiend always said she was well looked after and that the food was very good. However, her room was hardly big enough for someone needing full nursing care. It was very cramped. Would have been difficult to accommodate a hoist. The washroom was tatty.There was no shower. The net curtains were hanging up, torn.

I am very happy with the care that my father received from Adelaide Nursing Home for the duration of his stay there.

The nursing home was so welcoming in such a difficult time. They looked after my dad so well, always with a smile and care. They reassured me the whole way that my dad was engaging well with them, eating, drinking, and allowing care. I knew he was safe and well, even though he didn't fully understand why her was there. They put on daily activities, had dogs and kittens visit. Always tea and coffee available. We can't thank them enough.

From the moment I arrived to view this home for my late Dad, I knew it was right for him. The residents in the lounge were all friendly, engaging and seemed content and happy. This is really the best indication of a good care home.

All the staff that I engaged with were nothing but helpful, understanding and patient. Dad said on one occasion that he care couldn't be any better and that he had 'No complaints whatsoever'. Even though he could be difficult at times, which is understandable given the situation, the staff remained 100% professional and caring.

It was a long haul to get Dad transferred from Lytham St Anne's to Hove, a task that took a disproportionate amount of energy from myself and my Dad. When he did eventually arrive after an 11 hour ambulance transfer he was utterly exhausted and I didn't think he'd survive. But with the excellent care he received and with the love and support of myself and my sister, he rallied and his stay at Adelaide was perfect for us all.

We were very lucky that Mum was placed at the Adelaide back in 2021, the care for her progressive condition has been excellent and she was very comfortable there until she recently passed away. Staff have seemingly boundless energy and compassion, and go beyond the call of duty to provide enjoyable experiences for the residents, as well as ensuring that dignity and comfort are maintained at all times.

My father was admitted to the Adelaide with a stage 4 brain tumour. His love from our home to the care home was perfectly managed; with care, consideration for his feelings and the least amount of stress. The Adelaide may not be as shiny and new as purpose-built homes, but we couldn't have asked for a better team or level of care for my dad. He was made to feel instantly at ease by the staff and it was like a home from home for him. The team listened to him, were patient & flexible with him and adapted to meet his complex needs. We would highly recommend the Adelaide, they made my dads last few months as comfortable as could be so that we could spend valuable time together as a family.

My godmother spent her last six weeks in this lovely home which has a warm and welcoming feel, it is clean and bright and all the staff we encountered were friendly and helpful, she was made comfortable and treated with dignity and I cannot thank them enough for the high-quality care and kindness shown right to the end of her life.

My mother was admitted for end-of-life care four months ago. Her needs became more acute towards the end but she was always treated with professional and sympathetic care. Her basic requirements of cleanliness and nutrition were met thoroughly. The staff were attentive, friendly and understanding with exceptional care from the senior nurses and manager which extended to their support with the family.

My dad's last few weeks were spent in this nursing home and he was very well looked after and cared for. The staff were friendly and kind and treated him with dignity at all times. We were always made to feel welcome and it was a clean and homely environment. He had a bright room with enough space to store his items. He was well-fed and frequently offered tea and biscuits throughout the day. He didn't get involved in the activities but there were lots on offer if he had wanted to. We are very grateful to the staff for making the last few weeks easier for us and they have continued to be helpful after. Thank you, we would highly recommend this nursing home.

My mother has been a resident for 12 years. Adelaide has gone above and beyond in the care, consideration and compassion shown to her and her family. The staff are caring, kind and respectful at all times. Thank you.

I could not have picked a more caring and compassionate home for my Mum. Every member of staff had a smile on their face and spoke to me every time I visited. Mum's care was of the highest quality and she was treated with dignity at all times. The home was clean, bright and airy and there were always activities on offer for Mum to take part in.

A nursing home we would definitely recommend.

Without exception the staff were kind and caring and the manager must be complimented on leading an exceptional team.

Good end-of-life service. Caring staff.

Adelaide is a fantastic care home. My mum and I couldn't have hoped for a better environment for her to spend her last few weeks in. The lovely staff provide a warm and relaxed atmosphere while being highly attentive and attuned to residents' needs. We were both kept informed about her medical condition at all times and any changes clearly communicated to us. It has a human and homely feel and is not cold or clinical despite the level of nursing care it provides. Mum had a vegan diet and they made every effort to cater for her, she was very happy with the thoughtful way they approached meals for her. Mum really appreciated the opportunity to listen to live music, do sitting exercise classes, arts and crafts, have local children visit, and group lunches and tea parties that me and my daughter were also invited to. Most of all she loved how the staff always made time to talk to her and how happy they were to chat, it was this that really made a huge difference to her quality of life.

My husband was looked after with care and kindness during his final year and visitors always welcome.

We can't fault the care our mother received. She was treated with respect and love by everyone who came in contact with her. The one-to-one care, encouraging Mum to eat and spending time with her was exceptional. The care involved with Mum's diet, i.e. making custard with cream to help Mum put on weight. Personal hygiene, Mum was regularly changed and kept clean and comfortable. The encouragement she received to be involved with the activities when able. It was all the little things which added up to make Mum's stay a happy one. Thank you.

Adelaide is a very well-run care home. Residents are treated with dignity and respect and all the staff whom we have got to know over the last two years are warm, friendly and welcoming. Residents who are able can enjoy activities or opt out if they so wish. Cleanliness is good as is the food. Overall the family are happy with the care being provided at Adelaide.
