I came here to help my recovery from having a new hip joint after a very bad fall. I received a very warm welcome on arrival, offered food and drink which was much appreciated. The staff are kind and caring, nothing is too much effort. I have been supported and encouraged all the way. I would be happy to recommend this place to anybody. Excellent food, well presented.

Review from J G (Daughter of Resident) published on 19 September 2019 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

Both parents were cared for in this care home. My father was admitted first, deemed to be end of life. However, with the dedicated nursing care he received, he recovered sufficiently to live another 18 months. My mother was admitted following a fall in another home resulting in a fracture and hospital stay. Sadly her mental health declined, but again, she received excellent patient nursing care. All staff, nursing, admin and care staff were friendly and professional. All led by a strong manager.

Reply from Greta Narbutaityte, Customer Adviser at Leominster Care Home

Thank you for taking for sharing your story. We are sorry to hear about the loss of your father. Hopefully, you can feel like both of your parents received the care and dignity they deserve while in our care.

This was my second visit this year, whilst it was only for respite during my daughter's holiday. I found the staff as careful of my well-being as ever. It was just like being on holiday, lovely room, nice meals and plenty of care and attention.

Review from Geoff H (Son of Resident) published on 13 September 2019 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

When my father was transferred to Leominster Bupa home, he looked on death's door. He was practically comatose. Unfortunately, my wife and I had booked a holiday of a lifetime to celebrate her retirement and fully expected him to have passed away before our return. We returned to find him 'perky' and his old self. The fact he survived for another 18 months is a testament to the quality of his care.

Reply from Greta Narbutaityte, Customer Advisor at Leominster Care Home

Thank you for such a touching message. I have sent this through to the staff that looked after him and on behalf of the Leominster team we would like to thank you for trusting us with your parents care and if you need any further help please let us know.

My wife's stay was only a short stay but during this time, her care was impeccable. The nursing was of the highest standard and the cleanliness was excellent. We were made to feel welcome and treated with great dignity.

Thank you for your professional care.

Overall Experience

This care provider is very good, friendly staff, excellent food with plenty of choice. Facilities are excellent and there are always plenty of activities to join in with. The rooms are satisfactory but a bit on the small size, but this would be my only criticism. Overall it is a very good care home and I would recommend it to friends and family.

Review from Raymond P (Son of Resident) published on 14 June 2019 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Both of my parents lived at the Bupa Home in Leominster for the last 12 months of their lives after they had both been unable to continue living independently. The standard of care was always excellent and when both mum and dad were at the end of life, we were able to avoid hospitalisation so that they could both pass away peacefully in familiar surroundings with the people they knew. The staff were always caring and dedicated and there was always a cheerful atmosphere at the home.

I could not fault the service provided and would not hesitate to recommend Bupa at Leominster to anyone who needed nursing or residential care.

Very good care throughout the time my father was a resident. Support for the family in the last stages of fathers' life was excellent and allowed Father to die at the home and not in a hospital.

Overall Experience
It has the essentials to enable people to live a comfortable life whether they are old and frail or suffering from physical defects.
We have good food, one's clothes are washed and ironed frequently and entertainment is provided. One's room is pleasant with a TV and adequate furniture and a bathroom.

Whether the weather is hot or wet or cold outside, the temperature here is just right. People are happy here due, in fact, to the help given by the carers all with a smile.

Review from Nigel C (Son of Resident) published on 16 November 2018 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

We were impressed with all aspects of the care of my father. He was treated with dignity and consideration and we were always consulted if there were any issues presented. The care home was very well run and the administration a very high standard. One aspect which presented itself was that of specialist care for what I am sure is an increasing issue of our age, when mental health and dementia care specialist nurses would have been very valuable.

Overall Experience

We have been extremely pleased with all the care and support given to my father and for us as a family. My father lived at the home for nearly 3 years and in that time he has had tremendous care from all the staff. Their professional manner was exemplary. Nothing was too much trouble. Rooms were kept spotless, staff were friendly and accommodating at all times. The care and consideration given to my father and our family was excellent. I would definitely recommend this care home to others.

My observations make me compare this home to a four-star hotel, linen tablecloths, very friendly staff, a lovely atmosphere. Rooms and lounges are bright and cheerful.

An open reception area contributes to the general feeling of welcome.

Review from Boyan L (Respite Resident) published on 12 January 2018 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience
I was convalescing at Leominster Care home following foot/ankle tendon surgery at the hospital. My stay was excellent as the post-operation swelling reduced with rest and foot elevation. The nursing and care staff were very helpful and nothing was too much trouble they were all friendly and caring.

The only negative was that I could only have a shower once a weekly but was able to do it myself after the 4th day.

Reply from Jayne Duck, Customer services administrator at Leominster Care Home

Thank you for your review. I hope that you are now back in good health and are able to get around better after your surgery. I'm so glad to hear that you were well cared for while in our care and your kind words about our staff.
