The staff are very good but forgetful at times.
It is a great place. The staff are excellent and very friendly.
Staff are good and the food is excellent.
My Mum was brought to Blyth Country House Care Home approximately 1 1/2 weeks ago and has received wonderful care form all the staff during that time. Nothing is too much trouble for the carers/nurses/admin staff. From regular cups of tea to friendly chats and nursing care. Mum will be 94 on the 1st January 2020 and I feel relieved to know she is in very good hands now.
Cannot fault any aspect of care.
Mum was relocated here after her previous home stopped providing nursing care. The team were fantastic, supporting us through the transition. Mum is well settled and so much brighter. It's fabulous to see her so animated and trying to communicate. Everyone here is so friendly, considerate and caring. They spend time with mum which is great.
I didn't want my father in a care home but his needs were great and he needed to be somewhere that had 24 hour care - nursing care. Having looked at a few, Blyth Country House Care Home came out on top, with its countryside location, friendly and attentive staff, homecooked food and cleanliness. My father liked to watch the farm machinery come and go from his window and liked the company of the friendly staff. He always said, "nothing was too much trouble".
I like the home very much. I have got no faults whatever with it. The staff is very pleasant at all times.
A very good place. Excellent staff and food.
I feel this care home is a good one. The staff are generally very happy and to an awesome job. I visit regularly and personally always happy about my grandmother in this care home.
Entering a family member in this case my father is never easy. I have always been able to care for first mother, my uncle and lastly my father. Unfortunately, my father's health is more complex and challenging. The first few days were difficult for dad to accept but the staff when dealing with any care or distress dad showed great compassion. After nearly three weeks dad seems to have settled in very well and receives excellent care!
Dad was not in the best of health when he arrived at Blyth Country House but the care team have been very understanding and have encouraged him to move about and eat meals and he has gained weight. Before he came to Blyth he was bedridden and he now goes out daily in the wheelchair to experience the country environment which he is used to living around at home.
I found my visits to my Brother in Law mostly pleasing under the circumstances.
The staff were very good to my aunty who died age 101 years. They could not do enough for her and she really loved the staff.
The level of care from all staff is outstanding. All staff spent time talking to my aunt in her dying days, always ensuring that she was comfortable and pain-free.
The first time away from home, he was sat 22 hours on his own but now I know he is safe, especially at night and is being fed. I wasn't sure his carers at his home were feeding him or arriving when they should have.
A very good place. Improved in health and ability.
Everyone has been so helpful and knowing she is being cared for makes life a lot easier. A big thank you.
The staff are kind and treat my parents with respect.
I am pleased with our choice of care home as my parents' needs are very different but both are being well looked after.
My mother was here for a week. Very happy with everyone that looked after her. Thank you.
