Due to these difficult times, we found the home has been very accommodating in allowing visiting on a regular basis at the window and lately in the pod. The visits are a morale booster for all of us.

Review from Rosemary M (Daughter of Resident) published on 16 June 2021 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

Mum came into the home at a very difficult time during the pandemic. The staff have done all they can to keep us updated on her health and to arrange safe visits. We didn't expect her to settle in as well as she has but the staff have been wonderful with this and she seems as happy as she possibly could be. She is certainly able to do and be involved in a lot more than she did at home and is being encouraged to eat properly again. Overall I am happy with the care she is having.

The only reservation I have is communication between carers and management, as residents, we tend to use our carers as having the information on everything and sometimes they don't know the answer.

Reply from Alison Horridge, Customer Advisor on behalf of the team at Leominster Care Home

My mother has lived here for a little over three years now. The care given to her is of the highest quality. All of the staff really do care and always treat her with kindness and respect. The home goes the extra mile to try to provide interesting, varied and stimulating activities, even through what has been an extremely difficult and challenging year for all care homes.

Reply from Alison Horridge, Customer Advisor on behalf of the team at Leominster Care Home

I have to admit you looked after my father and he had nothing but good things to say about his care, and all the staff I had any dealings with were 100% on the button. I would highly recommend you to anybody needing care. I cannot thank you enough for his care in his final months. True professionals through and through.

I would rate this care home with a 5-star rating because the care and support to the residents and family are exceptional. All the staff treat the residents with respect, compassion and empathy. They always go the extra mile and treat the residents like their extended family. Nothing is too much trouble for staff. Their duty of care is fantastic and I cannot praise them enough. My father is very well looked after and is safe and happy, which we are so thankful for.

The home is well run with happy and helpful staff. The service regarding general cleanliness and both general and personnel is very good. We are well catered for and the kitchen staff keep us well fed and are prepared to adjust the service if needs be. There is a variety of group activities if one wishes to join in or a well-kept garden to enjoy when the weather permits and visitors (in the normal course) are always welcomed.

Overall Experience
Could not wish for a better place for Dad. In these troubled times, it is reassuring to know he is receiving the best of care.
All the staff are excellent, most having been at the home for many years. Relatives have been regularly kept up to date with their loved ones via newsletters, video calling, and in the last few days with strictly enforced accompanied, social-distanced, visits.

All credit to the manager and her team.

When you walk into Leominster Care Home it has a quiet and peaceful atmosphere. The staff are very pleasant and helpful. The care is superb and the residents are made to feel as comfortable as possible. Cleanliness is a top priority and the meals are tasty and nutritious. For the more able, there are many activities organised to stimulate the body and mind. A super home. Well done to everyone.

Over the last 2 or so months Mum's health has gone down a lot. The staff are trying everything they can to make her comfortable and as pain-free as possible. They constantly try to reassure her as she is rather distressed. The staff are also very kind to me. My brother and I are very pleased that Mum is living here. I just worry her money will run out.

Reply from Greta Narbutaityte, Customer Adviser at Leominster Care Home

Thank you for you feedback. It is always nice to hear from family members feeling like their loved one is cared for and looked after. If you have concerns in regards to finance you can always discuss it with the homes manager or financial administrator to see how we can help.

Overall Experience

My mother was a resident at the Leominster Care Home from July - October 2019. During this time, all the staff were of the highest professional standards. They helped make Mum's last days as comfortable as possible, always acting with care and compassion. The home is a wonderful place - all the staff from the manager down work as a family to care for their patients. I would not hesitate to recommend this home.
