Very noisy during visiting times. Children running up and down corridors. Patients calling for help and being ignored. Only two baths in two weeks. The staff were friendly, but sometimes when we needed to ask something there weren't any staff available that could answer our concerns. The décor was dated. Food was satisfactory. Medication suddenly taking a lot more, tablets throughout the day without knowing why and what they were for.

Richmond House was my dads home for the last year of his life. The home is well managed and families are encouraged to be involved in regular meetings and events. It's clean and my dad always enjoyed the meals and snacks. There are regular activities for residents. However the main reason we chose Richmond House was for the wonderful staff. From the moment it became his home he was treated with respect, dignity and humour. He received excellent care. During the last few weeks of his life he remained at Richmond House and staff ensured his wishes not to go to hospital were respected. He received tender, loving care from everyone and as a family we could not have made a better choice.
I have been looked after first class in every way that was possible.

My stay here has been most pleasant and beneficial made by the smiling, willing staff. Every whim has been dealt quickly and happily. The medical staff have been informative when I asked and when dealing with outside bodies and have fought my corner, and have helped my wife and family also. Well done Richmond House.
Staff have been helpful and very good to me. Sometimes I feel a little over fed. My room is clean and pleasant and adequate for what I need. I do need alternative accommodation and have my name down to stay permanent. Lets hope!
