Although my mother was incapacitated for the majority of her time at the home, the staff did their best to make her as comfortable as possible, and for that, they have my thanks. A very professionally run facility, safe and secure. The care, sensitivity and empathy of the staff was fantastic.
Thank you so much for your lovely review. It is good to have confirmation that we are getting it right. It will give the team great pleasure to receive this.
From day one, the care and ethos of the home was a pleasant experience for my mum, she was treated as one of the family, and always took mums religion seriously, even during Welsh services (the chaplain was amazing).

My mother-in-law's stay at Fitzwarren House has been brilliant. She was clearly happy there & the staff were amazing. We felt completely reassured of her health, safety and wellbeing. They definitely go above & beyond with their care. Although mum has just passed, we will always be there to help & support the home in any way we can. We could not fault them. Excellent.

Security not good as anyone could access the building & the lift, then could access the patient area.

Thank you for your kind review. I will share with the team. Please be assured that the front door is only open during office hours. At other times you are required to ring the bell for the unit you require.
The staff have been extremely attentive and caring to dad over the last 2 years. They have time to sit with him and encourage him if that is what is required. They are careful and thorough with personal hygiene and all with patience and understanding through difficult times.

My dad had respite care for 3 weeks. All the staff have a genuine love of their work and are full of kindness and respect towards my dad, who has Parkinson's. The accommodation was lovely. Varied menu choices and quality dishes. Dad thoroughly enjoyed his stay.

My dad came to this care home in July and we cannot believe the improvement in him. He a much happier person and treated so kindly by everyone here. They take the time to listen and help. Nothing is too much trouble. Everything is of very high standard but the personal touch is second to none!

I cannot speak highly enough of staff dedication to their work. All demonstrate kindness and compassion towards residents, and encourage interaction in activities, and not forgetting those behind scenes who ensure everything runs smoothly. There's always contact between visits with any relevant updates on mum's condition, which is reassuring. Key to wellbeing is being treated with dignity, and my observations and her behaviour suggest this is satisfied.
