Could do better, instead of a good care home it could become an excellent care home with a few adjustments. I feel communication between staff could improve. Information that is relevant to a resident is not always shared between different shifts. I am not always kept informed about matters...
Could do better, instead of a good care home it could become an excellent care home with a few adjustments. I feel communication between staff could improve. Information that is relevant to a resident is not always shared between different shifts. I am not always kept informed about matters concerning my relative. The food is adequate, but the winter menu advised by BUPA Is a bit repetitive and boring.
Thank you for your review. Your comments are extremely important to us and our residents’ health and wellbeing are our absolute priority. We will discuss your feedback with the home’s manager to help them continually improve their service. The Bupa Customer Care Team.

On coming once a week to see a very good friend of many years, I found this home excellent. Everyone is very friendly and helpful. There is always plenty of activities for the residents to help them. On all of my weekly visits, everyone is pleasant and helpful.

I arrived at Waterside apprehensive, very low and depressed. The staff are welcoming, reassuring, competent and friendly with care and concern expressed at all times and always ready to go that little bit further to help. The food was excellent, this was commented on by visitors who booked a meal most weekends etc. that I was there. Patients were encouraged to meet with each other and use the day room, which made for more socialising and was beneficial. All female carers and an ensuite room made my stay even more enjoyable and appreciative. Any queries were answered quickly by a friendly helpful manager.

Staff and management work very hard to make the home a welcoming and pleasant place. Activities programme is good and facilities are well maintained, clean and tidy. Food and drink are good quality and resident wellbeing is a priority with GP visits, eye test, flu jab etc, all organised well. Staff are friendly and warm and most seem to genuinely care about the residents. Occasionally staff can take a long time to answer the bell but overall care is very good.

Mom joined Stepdown in June 2016 when the decision was made it was unsuitable for her to return home as her needs now requiring nursing care. As a family, we are grateful that Mom became a resident. Mom has settled well joining in activities and communicating with other residents. Mom's needs are met with smiles, her care with dignity and the environment calm. This level of respect has been shown since day one through each stage of Mom's needs and at times the staff have been a great support to us as a family. As a family, we find comfort in the respect shown to our mother and the comfort Mom experiences as a resident.

I have been at Waterside over 12 months now, it really is a home from home. I feel very lucky to be somewhere so lovely. Everyone is very kind and helpful, especially the carers and nurses.
