Review from Ann H (Daughter of Resident) published on 7 October 2016 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

Whilst in the rehabilitation unit in Richmond House Dad has been well looked after and treated with dignity and respect. The staff have been helpful and have responded to questions about Dad's condition promptly and efficiently. Dad says he has no complaints at all.

Review from J P (Son of Resident) published on 25 April 2016 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

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.

Review from Susan G (Daughter of Resident) published on 5 April 2016 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

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.

Overall Experience

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.
