Very poor in all aspects. No care package had been arranged for nursing care and no management involvement. Communications between hospital/doctor/wheelchair services/physio were lacking. The bed extension was only resolved after 3 weeks of admittance. My main complaint was of 'manhandling' by one staff member. Disciplinary action is in process. Food is poor.

My partner has been a resident at Ardenlea Grove since May 2016 and during this time he has resided on both Pearl and Emerald floors. We have always found the staff to be extremely good. During the last two months, my partner has deteriorated and the staff have been so caring and attentive to his needs and mine and deserve recognition for this. Theirs can be a thankless job sometimes but they always remain cheerful and positive.
Thank you for your review of Ardenlea Grove, we are pleased to hear that your partner has been well cared for at the home. We appreciate your comments about the staff and will share this with the care home's manager. The Bupa Customer Care Team.

My mom enjoys staying at Ardenlea Grove. The staff on the Sapphire floor are very good - caring, helpful etc. I am a regular visitor to see my mom to check she wants for nothing and is happy. I happened to call in during the "St Patrick's Day celebrations", the lounge decorations were great, there was a lovely atmosphere and I was also offered to join in and made to feel very welcome. Irish music, hats and a quiz added to the fun. Well done for arranging this and thank you to all the team for what you all do to look after my mother. Keep up the good work and I look forward to attending future events - sounds like a busy calendar is taking place.
Thank you for your review and kind words. I'm so pleased to hear that your mum is enjoying all the different things that are on offer and hope that you may also join in with some more activities.

My mum came to this care home two years ago and this meant she had to accept her loss of independence as it became sadly clearer she would not go home again, she was in her late sixties. With tenderness and respectful care, my mum came to think of Ardenlea Grove Care Home as her home, she was bedbound but her life was still fulfilled and she managed to be positive and to look forward. All staff have been professional, caring and friendly. Thank you.
Thank you for your review. We are pleased to hear about your positive experience and appreciate your comments of our home and will share your comments with the home’s manager.
Mom moved into Ardenlea Grove in September when she was in need of greater nursing care and was starting to suffer from dementia. From the first day, I contacted Ardenlea Grove, I have continued to be delighted with the manager and the nurses' attention and response.

Thank you for your review. I hope that your Mum has settled well and that you have peace of mind knowing that she is safe and well cared for.

As far as we are concerned, night and day staff on Sapphire give beyond the care of duty. Hope they get paid accordingly. Personally, I found the services of the care assistant especially useful - helped with dressing etc and the night nurse was extremely helpful in washing me and cutting my fingernails.
Food is disappointing and often cold but here again, chef may have a limited budget.

My husband passed away on 19th June 2017 with his family around him. We would like to express our gratitude to manager and staff at Ardenlea Grove Care Home for the care (excellent) given to my husband.
So sorry to hear of your loss, please accept our condolences. Thank you for your review and kind words. I will pass on your comments and gratitude to the home manager and the staff at the home.
I was well looked after in all respects. The staff were friendly, caring and happy to help in all ways when needed.

When dad arrived here, he was very poorly. In fact, we thought he might die. However, the staff here have cared for and nursed him to such an exceptionally high standard, dad has improved dramatically. We did have a few teething problems, but a chat with the deputy manager sorted these out. We witness nothing but care and compassion from all the staff to all the residents - it is lovely to see as some are very challenging. Mainly, dad is happy and his health is improving - How wonderful.

My father moved to Ardenlea Grove a few weeks ago he has settled in well. The staff have all been kind, caring, thoughtful and professional. It is lovely to see all the residents and carers in the lounge together. A few more activities ideas- pets, guide dogs for the blind. More activities for the residents would make overall, I would definitely recommend Ardenlea Grove to others. This home's perfect.

My father's care was exemplary. The staff are kind, professional and caring, treating their patients with respect. Making their last days comfortable and giving family peace of mind. Rooms are comfortable for both patients and visitors. No request was denied.
