The staff and management are friendly and treat mum well, with respect and dignity. I think the staff are let down by a lack of quality food. They can only feed residents so much on a limited budget or whats ordered. Bedrooms, lounge, dining room are very basic, but I appreciate the residents illness don't allow for the best quality furnishes. I appreciate the chairs etc have to be practical. The garden needs tidying up, often broken chairs, toilets etc are left outside too long. There is limited space to sit with mum, often confined to the dining room which is not satisfactory, as we are unable to take her out anymore. No major concerns but things could be improved for both residents and staff.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback about your mother's care. We are pleased to hear that you feel our staff and management treat your mother with dignity and respect, and that you have observed positive relationships within the home. We would like to clarify a few points regarding meals and nutrition. Residents are offered daily choice from our menu, and there is no set "food budget" restricting what they receive. We work closely with residents to ensure their preferences are respected, and we monitor nutrition and weight regularly in line with CQC standards. Currently there are no concerns about weight loss in the home. We acknowledge your comments about the environment. While furnishings must be practical to meet residents' needs, we continue to review communal areas and gardens to ensure they are safe, tidy, and welcoming.
Kind Regards Carly Tighe Home Manager

My sister was a resident at Stockingate care home , she was happy there for 4 years , then things changed and I believe her care went downhill, I would not recommend this care home, I wish that I had removed my sister before she died in hospital.

We are truly saddened to read your comments and would like to extend our condolences on the passing of your sister. She was a valued member of our Stockingate community for many years, and our team remember her with great fondness. We take all concerns raised by relatives extremely seriously. In this case, your representations were fully reviewed internally and externally, including by the Care Quality Commission and senior company leadership. No evidence was found to support the claims of a decline in care. We remain confident that your sister continued to receive compassionate, professional and person-centred support from our dedicated team throughout her time with us. We recognise that the period surrounding a loved one's declining health and passing can be very distressing, and perceptions and emotions can understandably be heightened. We remain fully committed to transparent communication, and we would be happy to meet with you again should you wish to discuss

What an absolute gem of a care home (Stockingate). This home really cares about the residents. The staff are absolutely outstanding, and nothing is too much trouble for them. It’s like one big happy family. Always recreational games/karaoke/dancing with both residents and carers getting involved. The teamwork and team spirit is breathtaking. They go above and beyond in everything they do. I can honestly say this care home is second to none... thank you so much for everything you do for my dad.

I am so sad to leave this lovely home and all the staff as I have to move nearer to my family. The manager and staff at Stockingate have made me feel so welcome and special over the last few months and I will miss them all terribly. The home is wonderful with lots to do. I enjoy the singalongs and garden club. The food is great and there's lots of it as it's all cooked fresh on the day. I will miss everyone and I am sad to go. Best of luck to you all at Stockingate. God Bless and bye bye. Thank you for all your support, care and kind words.

My mother seems happy, comfortable and well fed. She has lost parts of clothing but has retrieved them and now has her name in them. We will be putting her own TV in her room shortly although she may not be staying there. As we live so far away.

At first I was not pleased with the home, twice I visited he was wearing other peoples clothes, I had taken him plenty of his own, but someone soon sorted it out and after that he always has his own on, and now I can't fault it. The staff are very nice in every way, and always ask if you want a drink. I visit every day and see how they treat everyone as if they are their parents.
