Carr Gate Care Home

Looking forward to going back home. I have been looked after well here and enjoyed it.

The staff do their best for us.

Carr Gate Care Home is conveniently placed for M1 users and for Wakefield residents. My care is satisfactory, staff are good, friendly and approachable. TV in the sitting room is too loud but you can usually get it reduced. Food is only fairly satisfactory.

Everything has been very good, nice bed and room kept tidy. Meals very nice and staff good.

My wife was accepted at Carr Gate Care Home in mid-December 2016 on a respite basis while I recovered from a hip operation. My daughter, son and myself are very pleased with the care at Carr Gate Care Home. My wife has settled quite well, she is eating well and her care by the friendliness of the team is very good. Today, Valentine's day has been celebrated by decorations, a female entertainer and dancing and tea and cakes. We are waiting for agreement of permanent residency.

I found this care home good in the way they cared for my mother and the dignity they gave her as she faded and passed away, my mother spent nearly 2 years at this home and I would recommend it to anyone who needs a caring home for relative.

Carers very good in looking after my father in his last few days. I would recommend Carr Gate Care Home to people looking for a care home.

My dad has just been admitted into Carr Gate Care Home. The staff are friendly and the home is adequate.

The place seems very cheerful and positive. It's clean and tidy and orderly. My sister-in-law seems well looked after and happy.

Reception excellent - visit excellent. Staff helpful and considerate.

I am satisfied my mum is receiving adequate care.

My mother went into respite at Carr Gate due to a recent illness. All the staff are very welcoming and friendly and nothing is too much all you have to do is ask. Mum settled in very quickly and the family noticed a change in her within a couple of days.

My wife has been resident for only two weeks and so far she has been quite happy and well cared for.

I particularly admire the young members of staff, in this day and age it's good to see such caring amongst the young. The recent improvements have enhanced an already good situation.

Always feel comfortable whenever visit both brothers, one for 6 years one 6 months. Staff most welcoming and helpful.

First class service all round, couldn't be more pleased. My thanks to all the staff.

I feel that my mother gets very reasonable care. I think that she can be challenging at times and I'm pretty sure the staff cope well with her, but more experienced caring staff would never come amiss.

The senior staff and management are welcoming and efficient. I am particularly pleased with the medical care on hand. The home has recently undergone a facelift and is pleasant, clean and tidy. Over the time my mother has been at the home I have had concerns that a small number of carers have been insufficiently proactive in their care duties. In addition I am not convinced that there is sufficient mix of stimulating activities either one to one or group. TV programmes chosen by carers are not stimulating.

My sister moved into Carr Gate in December 2015. She settled really well and all staff were eager to know about her interests and hobbies so that they could talk about them with her. All staff are very friendly and welcoming whenever i visit and always available to fill me in on how my sister has been since my last visit. My sister fell and was admitted to hospital- staff rang the hospital every day to ask about her well being and what she had eaten etc- they then rang me to fill me in and update me. I really felt supported by them.

Staff are extremely helpful.
