Review from Vanessa R (Daughter of Resident) published on 29 January 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

From the moment we arrived to view Queensmount for our Dad we knew immediately this was the place we wanted him to be. The staff were so friendly and welcoming and it just felt right. During his time there he received the best care possible and was treated with the dignity and respect he deserved. They made a very difficult time so much easier to bare and we are so grateful for that. We even visited after my Dad passed away so that other family members who were over from Australia could see where he spent his last days and were again made very welcome. Highly recommended.

Reply from Jayne Duck, Customer services administrator at Queensmount Care Home

So sorry to hear of your loss, please accept our condolences. Thank you for your review and such kind words. I hope that you and your family have peace of mind knowing that your dad was so well cared for in our care.

Review from D Jane A (Niece of Resident) published on 26 January 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My uncle was a resident of this care home for over two years. During this time, the care of his physical, social and emotional needs was extremely good. As a relative living away, I was kept fully informed at all times about any issues affecting my uncle. It was reassuring to know that he was receiving such good care. At all times he was treated with respect, patience and understanding. To the last he maintained his dignity. I certainly felt supported by the staff and part of the Queensmount family. In my opinion, Queensmount is a well-managed establishment.

Review from S D (Sister of Resident) published on 25 January 2018 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience
My brother was a resident at Queensmount Care Home for three weeks respite. From the minute he arrived to the day he left he was treated with respect, understanding and kindness. Everyone was friendly and the family visiting him were warmly welcomed at all times.
Queensmount is warm comfortable and homely. My brother does not like being away from his own home where he is cherished by my sister-in-law but he said he would be happy to return for future respite should it be necessary. I can't speak highly enough for the way my brother was looked after. He also enjoyed all the activities and entertainment provided.

Thank you to all the kind staff.

Reply from Jayne Duck, Customer Services Administrator at Queensmount Care Home

Thank you for your review and kind words. I'm so glad to hear that your brother enjoyed his short stay with us and was happy and well cared for. It is the little things like a smile or a little chat that makes all the difference. I hope that your brother comes and stays with us again for some respite care.

Overall Experience

I visited my friend once a week for several months. She was a bright and intelligent elderly lady who would, of course, have preferred to be in her own home, but since that was not possible she always said she was in the best place possible. My friend was well cared for by friendly, professional staff, in fact, she often commented on how kind and attentive everybody was to her.

Review from Jill M (Daughter of Resident) published on 5 January 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Since my mother entered Queensmount Care Home following a hospital visit in December 2017, my family have been greatly relieved and reassured to discover how happy, friendly and well-run it is. During this settling in period, the staff have been very supportive, friendly and helpful in facilitating as smooth a transition from her own home as possible for my mother.
My mother now enjoys the very well organised and stimulating daily residents activities and a much improved social life, instead of being on her own in her flat much of the time.
the catering is excellent with a varied and flexible choice of daily menus and we have enjoyed several delicious meals in the residents dining room as guests with my mother.

Thank you to all Queensmount staff for helping us through this difficult time with such understanding and kindness. My mother feels very safe and well cared for and we have peace of mind.

Thank you for your review. I'm so glad to hear that your mum is settling in and enjoying the activities, I'm sure she will make lots of new friends. It is lovely to know that you also have peace of mind knowing that she is well cared for.

Overall Experience

At the time of my initial enquiry I was very impressed by the warmth and help I was given. My husband suffers from Parkinson's Disease and needed three weeks respite care. Having visited him every day of his stay has been obvious to me that Queensmount Care Home is very well run in a very compassionate and caring way by many exceptional and devoted staff.

Review from M R (Brother-in-law of Resident) published on 10 October 2017 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

My sister-in-law spent approximately 18 months in Queensmount Care Home before passing away peacefully on 11 September 2017. We hear of so many alarming stories in the press. I cannot fault the care received by my sister-in-law during her confinement. It was friendly, kind and very professional. All of the staff were always helpful and considerate. Both I and my sister-in-law found new friends and they made her remaining life as joyous and comfortable as was possible. I was so pleased that some of the staff were able to attend her funeral.

So sorry to hear of your loss, please accept our condolences. Thank you for your review. I'm so glad to hear that you and your sister in law made new friends and your kind words about our staff. I'm sure this will be of comfort to you in the future knowing that she was well cared for.

Erika AssiJob Title:Financial AdministratorJoined: 2015

I joined Queensmount in May 2015 as a part-time receptionist. In 2016 I became a full-time customer advisor, later in the year, I moved roles as Senior Activities Organiser. With my past background in accounting, the role of Financial Administrator became available within the home and this has always been my dream job. I applied for the role and was over the moon when I was successful with my application

I love working at Queensmount as it feels like my second family. I enjoy chatting with residents and relatives and having a hands-on approach to ensuring every department is delivering the outstanding care which is reflected in our recent inspection report.

I have worked at Queensmount on reception since June 2016. I thoroughly enjoy my work here; I enjoy welcoming people into the home and making sure people are happy and comfortable.

I realise how difficult it is for families making the move from their own home to a care home and try to make it as smooth as possible.
