Over all time Abode Poulton has 3 reviews.
Our dad, grandad and father-in-law was at Abode for over two years and was always well cared for and was treated very well by all staff. His room was always clean and we knew he was always safe whilst in his room and walking around. All staff were brilliant with my father-in-law and always made him laugh. As a family, we were always made welcome to see him at any time and always had a chance to ask questions about his health, how he was eating and his general welfare. My father-in-law especially loved it when they had singers visiting or when they were listening to old songs. Thank you to the staff for all their hard work, for caring for our lovely dad, grandad and father-in-law, we always knew he was in safe hands, even in his final moments.
Thank you for your kind words, it was our pleasure knowing and caring for your loved one.
All of the staff and management have been amazing since he arrived quickly from hospital to make space to free up beds due to Coronavirus.
During this extremely testing time for the whole country, especially the NHS and carers such as your staff, I must commend all of your team. They are always cheerful and positive and enabled us to call round to the home every few days to chat to my dad safely through the window.
Most importantly, staff recently noticed early that my dad was not himself and called 999. The ambulance took him to hospital where he was treated for sepsis. If it wasn’t for this quick-thinking then the outcome might have been very different.
I just wanted to convey my thanks to everyone on a wonderful service you provide. The communication from the home has also been great with regular updates and we can see that he is being so well cared for and treated with so much dignity and respect.
My mother went into Abode Poulton during the summer of 2019. My sister and I took her from another home which was too large and noisy. Since she arrived here the lovely staff members have done everything to make my mother comfortable, including fixing her hair and nails. She is treated with the utmost respect and has been given the best of care. Every time I visit I find a clean fresh bedroom and the residents are all comfortably settled in the lovely lounge area, where they can be as sociable or quiet as they would like. My mother has a recliner and she seems very happy! The staff at Abode are genuinely caring people and they are always looking for feedback so that they can offer the most appropriate care. They all have a good sense of humour and seem to know how to handle even the trickiest of situations whilst always maintaining the dignity of the residents. I really enjoy my visits and being a distance away, it gives me complete peace of mind to know our mum is in such professional hands.
