Review from K U (Daughter of Resident) published on 31 March 2026 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
THIS IS THE WORST HOME EVER. My mother was lying on the lounge floor with residents walking over, she was left all morning and lunch without food or medicine and she was diabetic, the carers were lazy with no care when I visited mostly sitting and eating in there rest room, the manager was the worst so rude and when I seen her I thought what the hell, she's the manager. The hospital decided to put my mum in this home, I got my mum out but it took 2 weeks, DO NOT LET ANY HUMAN GO IN THIS HOME, please believe me, I have had experience with my loved one, my mother.

Review from Elaine J (Daughter of Resident) published on 4 December 2025 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
Mum was transferred from hospital to Allambie Court 2 years ago after she suffered a fall and deemed to need to go into a nursing home. My past experience of a loved one being transferred to a dementia nursing home was terrible. However, the whole Allambie Court 'experience' has been great: I've found all staff consistently very caring, considerate and thoughtful, to my Mum (and she can be difficult) and the various daily activities / entertainment is wonderful. They also helped me in my transition into this 'new space'.
The accommodation is a large Victorian house offering accommodation for a reasonably small number of 'guests', which means they individually receive more attention. Although the accommodation has always been clean, a big refurbishment has been underway in the last year, which is looking lovely.

I am the only relative of my Mum and live nearly an hour away. Although it would be easier for me to transfer her to somewhere local to me, I am more than happy with her care.

Review from Christine F (Sister of Resident) published on 1 November 2021 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
Had a lovely experience today. It was my Brother's birthday. Today we took him to The Chase (which is a walk up the road). How lovely to be able to have a change of scenery for a while, within walking distance. Then he celebrated his birthday with a birthday cake which the home supplied, and treats, celebrating with Staff and other Residents. My Brother was previously in a Nursing Home that didn't have local amenities. Thus, being in a wheelchair and unable to transfer, there would have not been anywhere to take him to socialise on occasions. In the Summer months, he's been taken to the recreation grounds, watching children play, whilst also enjoying the fresh air.

Review from Denice G (Daughter of Resident) published on 2 March 2018 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
Carers are excellent but extremely thin on the ground. Little or no time to engage on a one to one basis. Music, which I understand stimulates people with dementia was rarely played. At meal times some residents are not seated at a table they eat off trays!
There is no member of staff to book you in or out which is itself a fire risk! I wished to be involved with my mum’s care plan-failure to discuss with the family mums wishes in advance caused me great a lot of distress when she died.
Nurse saved mums life when she had a stroke and I will forever be indebted to her. Events coordinator took photographs on her own personal mobile phone. No idea about data protection!

Review from Sandy M (Husband of Resident) published on 4 February 2016 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
My wife has been a client at Allambie since August 2009 and I have nothing but praise for the care and attention the staff have given to her. In most assessments the word "challenging" is used --- and the staff coped.

Review from Lynne (Wife of Resident) published on 18 January 2016 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
Having had a preconceived idea of nursing homes, I was reluctant to place my husband in one. Allambie Court has changed my opinion, the staff are all wonderful and I'm very happy with the care given. Many thanks to all of the Carers who genuinely care about all of the residents they look after.
