Review from Helen B (Daughter of Resident) published on 18 December 2017 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
My father was moved into the Beeches as an intermediate placement following hospital admission prior to home care package being commenced. He went home in November and after a week he has now chosen to return on a full-time basis to the Beeches.
The decision for a permanent move was extremely hard admitting he is no longer capable of living home alone. However every single stage of this the staff have been truly amazing, in the respect and care shown to my father and how the whole family have been welcomed and supported. Nothing is too much trouble and the whole process has been so stress-free I will be forever grateful to every single member of staff there.
I personally have been so well supported and reassured through this difficult time it has been beyond words really. Knowing now that my father is safe, well cared for 24/7 is priceless and the relief this brings.We were so lucky to have found the Beeches and to have come under the care of such a fantastic team of staff.
