Mount Vale Care Home is a warm, friendly home. The management is efficient and well-organised. The staff are wonderful and do a really good job sometimes in difficult circumstances. My observation would be that there are occasions when they are stretched and staffing levels could be increased. This problem cannot always be solved by expensive agency staff some of whom do not always reach the quality of the lower-paid permanent staff. Neither do they have the same relationship with the residents. Food and facilities are of a good standard. There is a wide range of activities and visits which are very well organised and everyone is encouraged to join in if they so wish. I feel comforted that my husband is receiving the best of care at Mount Vale Care Home.

My dad was on the memory lane unit for 3 weeks for emergency respite care, throughout his stay he was treated with respect and dignity always, even when things were difficult. He was encouraged to join in activities and even enjoyed dancing! My mum and myself were always made to feel welcome and nothing was too much trouble. Staff were always polite and went the extra mile. We have now found dad a new home nearer to family and friends but I will always be grateful for the care he received and will recommend Mount Vale always.

The decision to move my dad into a care home was a hard one to make, not helped by lockdown happening soon after. However, once we could begin visiting again it was lovely to see how settled he was and it had definitely become home to him. This made us confident it had been the right decision and that Mount Vale was a good choice. The communication and efforts to continue contact in its various forms despite all the restrictions were wonderful. The care and compassion that the staff showed my dad was excellent. Thank you.
Kind regards
Helen
Just absolutely excellent. The care and love they show my mum is outstanding. During the lockdown, they have sent photos and updates and began garden visits as soon as it was possible. Can't recommend enough.

My Dad has received a very good quality of care whilst resident at Mount Vale. The nurses and care staff have taken a great deal of trouble to ensure Dad was well cared for. This was obvious whenever we visited him. They were also very caring with us as a family, which counts for a huge amount.

Hi, I’m Sue.
I began my career in care in the early 1990s, starting as a Care Assistant. Over the years, I have progressed through various roles, including a Regional Support role, and have gained a wealth of knowledge and experience within the care sector. I have had the privilege of managing multiple homes, including working as a turnaround manager.
I am passionate about building strong teams and creating a positive environment where residents can live their best lives. Ensuring that residents receive the highest standard of care and have the best possible experience is something I truly care about.
Outside of work, I am a proud mum and have two dogs who bring lots of joy to my life. I enjoy crocheting and can never resist buying more wool! I also love going to the pictures every week and enjoy listening to music.
I feel incredibly proud of my career in care and remain passionate about making a difference to the lives of residents, their families and the teams I work with.

Hi, I’m Camille, Deputy Manager and Registered Nurse at Mount Vale Care Home.
I used to work in a different care home as a nurse, supporting residents with a variety of nursing and complex care needs. My experience in care has taught me that good nursing isn’t just about medications, observations and care plans; it’s about knowing the person behind them. Everyone has a story, and I’ve always enjoyed getting to know it.
One of my favourite parts of my role is leading and supporting our clinical team. I love coaching people, sharing knowledge and seeing someone grow in confidence. I try to be the person I wish I’d had around when I was learning: someone approachable who will help rather than make you afraid to ask questions.
I also genuinely enjoy spending time with our residents and learning about who they were before they came to live with us. They’ve had careers, families, adventures, romances, mischief and entire lives before we ever met them. Sometimes their stories are much more interesting than anything I could find on Netflix!
Outside of work, I’m a committed documentary binge-watcher, particularly anything involving true crime, investigations, war, soldiers or medicine. I also love House and Grey’s Anatomy. Apparently, working in healthcare all day and then coming home to watch fictional healthcare is my idea of switching off! On a good day, you may also find me in Wetherspoons.
I don’t have pets of my own, but I’ve managed to acquire several honorary ones! I’m friends with Ruby, a Spaniel–Black Labrador cross, and I’m the proud god-fur-parent to two cats, Whiskey and Kobe.
I take my work and responsibilities seriously, but I don’t think that means we have to be serious all the time. Care can be challenging, and sometimes a little kindness, a good conversation, and the right joke at the right time can completely change someone’s day.
At heart, I’m a people person. Whether I’m supporting a resident, coaching a colleague, solving a problem or simply making someone smile

Jack and Pals Therapy Dogs visit Mount Vale Care Home each month and have been visiting for over three years with their owner, Wendy. The team consists of Alf and his grandson Billy, who are both Border Collies. Jack, the founding canine pal of the organisation, visited for many years until he passed this year. Their visits aim to provide companionship, friendship and spread happiness to all they visit each month. Many of the residents have been dog owners themselves and enjoy chatting to the team about their own dogs. Billy and Alf are Wendy’s own dogs, who have been temperament assessed and then insured and registered with Jack and Pals Therapy Dogs as being suitable dogs to carry the title of therapy dog. They also compete in agility and obedience, but most of all enjoy a good cuddle with their family and friends.Jack and Pal’s mission is to bring the exceptional benefits of therapy dogs to the residents of Mount Vale, and they do this free of charge, relying on donations from fundraising events, regular or one-off donations.

I first joined the military in 1978, chasing my boyhood dream of becoming a Royal Marine; unfortunately, I left the following year due to ill health and injuries sustained during training.I also served at RAF Leeming in the Operations Centre, MOD Harrogate and RAF Fylingdales as Senior Non-Commissioned Officer in charge of the Communications Centre.
