Dad has only been at Millbridge for two weeks but I am impressed in what I have seen. The new building is very clean, fresh and bright, lovely gardens with the river. Staff are very nice, polite and attentive. Dads room is just right for his needs and nice that you can dress it up with home comforts. I am happy that Dad will be well looked after and cared for at Millbridge. Thank you for a good start in caring for him.

The food is prepared with care and of good quality taking many likes and dislikes into consideration.
The garden which is well kept with its boundary just beautiful.
Thank you for the lovely review, it is always lovely to get positive feedback.

We were very happy with the care our mother received during her stay in the coach house annexe. Sadly, the stay was only four weeks as her health worsened quickly and she died on the 14th August. The staff managed her final days with care and dignity for which we are very grateful. Reviewing the full facilities and menus offered by Millbridge is difficult, as Mum was bed-bound and unable to take full advantage.
Thank you for your kind review, our condolences go out to all the family.

My stepfather only had 3 months on and off at Millbridge and much of the time he was in hospital. He quickly referred to the place as 'home' and loved his room. Staff struck up a close relationship with him quickly and it was apparent he enjoyed his time there very much. Would recommend highly to anyone.
Thank you for your kind comments; we work hard to create a pleasant atmosphere for our residents and it is always rewarding to receive positive feedback.

Lack of care was evident, left my husband in bed gone eleven. No call bell, no pillow, lost most of his clothes. They seemed to think that my husband can't talk and therefore could leave him in bed till afternoon staring at a wall and then to be put to bed early to do the same. The staff had no knowledge of any of my husbands care needs when asked about medication and food needs. Removed my husband straight away. His room was disgusting and dirty never seen such a filthy room. Staff were very helpful while we were there but was evident was just because we were at the home.
An investigation of your concerns will be undertaken and, as per our Policies and Procedures, written response will be made within twenty-eight days.
Thank you for bringing these issues to our attention.
