My mother has been at Westbourne now for a year and a half, having been at another care home for 7 years, but had to move due to some building issues which resulted in temporary closure. All I can say is, I wish I had found Westbourne all those years ago! My mother has fairly complex requirements and the team on the reminiscence floor treat her as an individual with the utmost respect, gentleness, patience and humour. Mum has genuinely thrived at Westbourne! I cannot speak highly enough of the team who come in every day to do their best work with our loved ones.
Oh Sue, what a lovely testimonial! So happy that we have lovely family members like yourself who truly appreciate our staff and all they do, it makes our days so much nicer! Our staff genuinely care and every day I am humbled by the amazing things they do. Thank you.
My father is very happy in the care home. He is very well looked after, enjoys the facilities and activities. He is happy with the food too. His room is lovely.

My father has received excellent care since moving to Westbourne Towers. The staff is all extremely caring, thoughtful and professional. The facilities are excellent and the activity programme is very extensive with regular trips out on offer and a full day of entertainment to take advantage of. The music in the evenings is particularly wonderful and quite unique compared to other care homes I have seen. The home always has a buzz about it and feels like a warm and happy place.
Thank you so much, it is particularly great that you have chosen us after having your mother-in-law and father-in-law here for some time. We all love your Dad he has a sunny personality and joins in in everything, he is so polite and charming, an absolute asset to our home.
Amazing staff on the 3rd floor. Looked after my mum so well. She was safe comfortable and happy. Her individual needs were respected. My mum was looked after with dignity and compassion, especially on her final journey.

Thankyou Sharon, your Mum was such a delight and the team loved supporting her, she always looked so lovely.
I have aphasia. Our group, Say Aphasia, meets at the care home every Monday morning. The staff at the home are very welcoming and helpful and provide the group with tea, coffee and biscuits, always with a smile.

Dad has lived at Westbourne Tower for over six years and regards it as his home. The staff are highly professional and also very kind and have been wonderful in supporting and caring for him as his dementia progresses. We recently celebrated his 100th birthday, with a lovely afternoon tea party and a spectacular cake! He is so happy living there and his family is so grateful that we never have to worry about how he's being cared for.
Thank you, we are all very fond of your Dad and his lovely smile. Our staff work hard and genuinely care, thank you all for being such a lovely family.
My father has been in Westbourne Tower for less than two weeks but I can already see a huge improvement.

He has started to eat again after starving himself for four months and he looks like his old self. The staff are all lovely, kind and caring and treat him with the TLC that he was denied before. The home is clean and nicely furnished and the food looks and smells delicious.
Thank you so much Alison. Your Dad is such a lovely man, always smiling. Thank you also for recommending us to your colleague, much appreciated.
I have been very impressed with the service and facilities provided by Westbourne Tower Care Home. My father is a relatively new resident but has already settled into his new environment thanks to the warmth, care and professionalism displayed by each member of staff I have seen working with him.

Thank you so much. Looking after your brother was a true privilege for us, and meeting his extended family and friends filled our home with so much positivity and kindness, we all miss him but hope we will continue to see you from time to time.
Dad is being well looked after and the staff have done whatever they can to help him. Unfortunately, he is deteriorating and the staff have offered suggestions on how we can make him more comfortable. We are glad we chose Westbourne Tower for him.

After researching several options, I ultimately chose to move to Westbourne Tower Carehome. During my visits, I was impressed by the warm and welcoming atmosphere. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, and I had the opportunity to spend time with other residents before finalising my decision. From the very beginning, I have been met with exceptional hospitality and service from all the staff. I am already feeling at home and have no regrets about leaving my apartment. Thank you for making my transition a smooth and positive experience.
Thank you so much, I love having you and your wicked sense of humour in our home. Your positive attitude to everything lifts all our spirits, and you settled from day one, properly making this your home.

After extensive research, we chose to move my father to Westbourne Tower Care Home. We visited several care homes before making our decision, and the warm and welcoming atmosphere at Westbourne Tower stood out to us. The staff's friendliness and adaptability made the transition seamless for my father. He had the opportunity to connect with other residents before making his final decision, which reaffirmed his choice. We are very happy to see him settling in.
Thank you so much Simon. Your Dad is a Great addition to our "family" and he has settled immediately. I personally love his sense of humour and winning smile, I can't believe his Uncle was with us 18 years ago and a lot of us remember him!
To put it in a 'nutshell' I would recommend Westbourne Towers Care Home to anyone who is in need of care or respite.

She was obviously very apprehensive about leaving her flat which they had shared for many years.
When she made the initial tour of the Westbourne Tower we were both very impressed so the decision was made to move in.
She settled in very quickly and we are all very happy with the care and attention she has been given by all the staff. Whenever we visit the staff are very friendly and professional and we have no worries when leaving her in their care.
She wasn't eating well at home but now she is enjoying the wonderful meals and indeed has put on a little weight.
A huge thank you to the Senior Director of Community Relations and her team for making this move such a good experience.
Thank you so much you both have been a huge support and we love to see your Happy smiling faces when you come in. I am so pleased your friend has settled, our team work hard and improve the life of our seniors.

Mum has been a resident for three months. She is much improved physically and in her mood. She seems to be enjoying life again. The level of care is excellent, and I have been very impressed at how quickly all the staff get to know residents and their families. Nothing is too much trouble, and it means a lot to us to know Mum is safe and comfortable. The variety of activities has opened her life up again.
Thank you so much, Jane, for trusting us with your Mum. She is a great addition to our home, always smiling and engaging; she has settled incredibly well and gets involved with most things. I think meal times are a favourite for her as she has a lovely chat with her table companions.
We received very quick comprehensive responses to emails when we made an initial enquiry. We were very impressed when we came to lock around, and I am delighted now that my father has moved in. The staff are very kind, there are lots of activities, and the food looks amazing. My daughter enjoys...

The staff are very kind, there are lots of activities, and the food looks amazing. My daughter enjoys visiting Grandpa now that he is closer to us, and the staff welcomes our visits, which is lovely.
Thankyou so much, your Dad has settled really well, always smiling, enjoying the mini bus outings and dipping in and out of everything that is going on.
Everyone is very kind.

My mother took up residence at Westbourne Tower in mid-July 2023. Initially, the stay was for a four-week period but she enjoyed the welcoming and caring environment so much that she intended it to be her forever home. I cannot praise the staff, facilities and accommodation highly enough and have recommended it to several friends in similar positions.
Thank you, Colin, she is a very welcome addition to our home, always embracing the activities (often winning!) everyone is very fond of her. It's lovely to see people who were lonely at home blossoming so well.
My wife is very well looked after.

Thank you, and thank you for your special care, we all enjoy your visits.
Perfectly contented here. The staff are excellent and the care is exceptional during hard work. Food reasonable - could be more choice of vegetables and salad.

I have been working in Westbourne Tower Care Home for over 15 years. I have progressed throughout the company from Care Assistant to Lead Care to Reminiscence Coordinator and now Deputy Manager. I am very proud to lead a team, many of whom have been long-service team members, who constantly provide quality care whilst keeping our core values at the forefront of everything we do.
Working at Westbourne is a privilege and we are lucky to support our residents and each other every day.

I have been here since it opened in 2006. I can’t believe how time has flown by. Although I already had the skill set I was working as a Bank Chef alongside my own business and was asked to take on the managerial role which was an easy transition. I trained and worked in London, Morocco, France and Italy before returning to the UK and settling in Bournemouth. My food specialities are multicultural and the residents love it when I do theme days. I have been a major part of this home being awarded CQC Outstanding, the CQC assessor loved my secret ingredient “ a bit of love”. I run a monthly Dining Committee where residents can influence what is on the menu, likes and dislikes and I love nothing more than walking around the dining room on a daily basis to ensure their wishes have been followed. I like to surprise residents with their favourite dishes, for special occasions. I have to say I love my job and my residents make me smile every day. I am proud to say I work here.

I have worked here since 2006, and the things that have remained constant throughout that time are the love, dedication and unfaltering kindness my colleagues deliver every day. No two days are the same; there is always something going on which makes you smile and our residents become part of our extended family. We are committed to filling their days with happy moments.
My role is to market our home and welcome new residents into it, dealing with professionals and family members. Making a significant decision at a critical time is made easy when we have a beautiful product, lovely food, a great activities programme (including minibus outings) and caring staff, all coupled with happy appreciative residents and family members, this is borne out by our positive carehome.co.uk reviews.

I am passionate about person-centred care and ensuring that our residents live their lives as well as they wish, always upholding their wishes and preferences.
