During that time she was treated with dignity and compassion by all the staff both night and day. This care stayed the same even during the more demanding latter stages of her dementia.
The home was always clean and the meals were varied and of a high standard.
I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the home to anyone.

The professional care and dedication to all the staff at Aabletone for my father is first class. They all looked after him well. Very pleasant and friendly as they go about their work. Brilliant.

The impressive period care home is set in beautiful peaceful surroundings next to the botanical gardens. The manager is excellent with her patients, visitors and staff alike, as well as being extremely efficient in all areas. The atmosphere there is extremely welcoming, happy and friendly with plenty of smiles. The manager and staff work hard as a team and are always helpful and supportive to their patients and their families. There are plenty of activities available in-house and local trips out.
I am very proud of my team here at Aabletone, the care and kindness they show to residents is obvious in all aspects of their day to day life. Its extremely nice for the team to get such positive feedback and I will be sharing it with them and the team at head office. Many thanks for your lovely comments.
It was a pleasure to visit my sister at Aabletone as the staff were genuinely pleased to help. They took care of my sister and enjoyed their work. Nothing was too much trouble. I can't thank them enough. First class people worth their weight in gold. If the funds could ever stretch to it a bigger lift would be an asset. Other than that I loved the actual building, its layout was welcoming and homely. Exactly what I wanted to find when I was looking for the right home for my sister. This nursing home has it all.

My mother has been in Aabletone since the end of July having previously been in hospital for four weeks due to a fractured hip. The home is very welcoming with a bright and airy day room leading to a garden with a patio area surrounded by flowers. My mother’s room overlooks this lovely space and is very light and sunny. The staff are very caring, friendly and professional and my mum is now thriving despite her great frailty. Her appetite has improved and she looks so much better than when she was in a previous residential home. Requests are promptly dealt with and I am constantly updated on any developments that occur. I am very happy that my mother will spend the rest of her life being so well cared for.
Thank you very much for your lovely review. We are glad that your mum is feeling better now. It is extremely rewarding to know that our residents, family and friends are happy with the home, the care and the services we offer.
I very much hope to live out the rest of my happy days here.

The accommodation is of a very high standard and the management is excellent. They always ensure that I am fully informed of any developments.
I feel very lucky that my mum has found such a good home.

The staff are always helpful and seem very caring.
I have been very pleased with the care I have received at Aabletone. My worry is the staff are put among patients before being properly trained. There are times when they think it is not compulsory to make a bed. This is fine by me but there are times when I worry about patients who are not able to make their wishes known. I am sure there are staff that would like to give that little extra care but they have not got the time as they are rushed.
We are glad to hear that you are very pleased with the care at Aabletone.
With regards to your concerns about staff not being trained properly, we always ensure that new starters work on shadow shifts enabling experienced staff to give them further hands-on training. With regards to the...
