My father was a resident for 6 weeks. We as a family were well informed by management and nursing staff. Our father's care was extremely good. He was safe and treated extremely well. The staff were all patient and always had time to chat with us. Rooms are clean and well equipped we wouldn't hesitate in recommending St Catherines to any future residents.

Absolutely first class! My brother was only at St Catherine's for one month on comfort/end of life care. We were more than satisfied with every aspect of the care he received. The staff were fantastic, keeping us informed, and very caring towards us. Everything was spotlessly clean and very comfortable to my brother and us as visitors. I cannot give praise enough! Please note we have had previous experience of care homes, so it was easy to compare.

They interact with mum very well and she has been eating a lot better than she has ever done due to the encouragement and time they spend with her.
Also, it's nice for us as a family to also have the interaction as well.

Found the experience to be very well organised, helpful and at ease. All in all my sister and I were more than happy when explained about what would happen next week with our mother.

Our mother who sadly passed away on November 10th 2017 was given care second to none, full of compassion, dignity. They always kept to us up to date with any medical changes and changes with her care staff. A head nurse couldn't do enough for her and us as a family. Would highly recommend St Catherines.

Overall I have no complaints. My father has been here nearly 18 months. However, at one point I don't think Dad was being put in pyjamas at bedtime which I strongly disagree with. Now I don't know whether this was due to him fighting with carers or not but handled rightly Dad can be talked round...
Overall I have no complaints. My father has been here nearly 18 months. However, at one point I don't think Dad was being put in pyjamas at bedtime which I strongly disagree with. Now I don't know whether this was due to him fighting with carers or not but handled rightly Dad can be talked round and he is always dressed during the day, so I think there has been a communication problem somewhere. I feel the night time staff don't seem to put enough effort in.

His room is well looked after and the food enjoyable. What really makes this place special is by far the staff and the lengths they go to. Well done to all and thanks for looking after my Dad.

I am really pleased with the care my husband is receiving here at St. Catherines. The staff are without a doubt caring to all the residents. My only concern is that there is not enough stimulation.

I find the staff to be very helpful and am happy with the care that they provide for my mother. I realise that at the moment, care providers nationwide are under pressure, but find that staff at St Catherines are happy to go the extra mile.

My husband has been in this home for the last 10 months and I have been happy with all aspects of his care. I have also received all the support from all members of staff I have needed. My husband has settled well in the home which has made it easier for myself and my family when visiting.
