The positive things about the Mountains are.
Care & Nursing staff. There is consistency in this staffing group. They all demonstrate positive regard for residents. They actively demonstrate excellent dementia care knowledge. All residents are treated with respect, kindness and warmth.
The activities staff are engaged with residents making every effort to individualise activities.
There has been turnover in the management team, nevertheless they are visible and accessible. They are proactive in their engagement with residents and family members.
Levels of communication are good. Staff greet people warmly and are welcoming.
Our relative is now receiving the level of care he deserves.

The staff are always busy but always maintain a cheery, positive and caring attitude to the residents and always approachable if we have any questions.
My mum seems very happy and contented there which means the world to us.

What was a particularly difficult time for us as a family navigating the system which was made much easier by Sue and all the staff at The Mountains, who made us feel at ease through all aspects, from the home assessment to her admittance.
Having visited my Mum at The Mountains on several occasions we can see that she is well cared for and is receiving the specialised care that she needs. The staff at The Mountains do a fantastic job in very trying circumstances and are always pleasant and friendly.
I would have no hesitation in recommending The Mountains Care Home to others.
Thankyou so much for your feedback and I am so pleased that we have been able to support you as well as your Mum. The staff at The Mountains are very committed and value the privileged roles they have as carers. They work very hard to ensure every resident is cared for with dignity and respect and I know that they will appreciate this lovely review

I really cannot rate this home highly enough, the staff here are quite exceptional. The patience and care they showed my husband has meant so much to me. The fact that he settled so much more quickly than I expected was due, I am sure, to the gentle humour, support and stimulation offered to him by people who cared enough to take time to learn his likes and dislikes. The home is always clean, fresh and welcoming, my husband always neat and clean and his room immaculate and comfortable - a lovely environment and a credit to housekeeping and catering staff. My husband's health issues have always been addressed promptly and with utmost care by staff I could trust implicitly. Management and staff are never less than friendly and approachable and I would not hesitate to recommend the Mountains to anyone and offer my sincere thanks for all their care.

Every time I walk into the Mountains care home I'm met with smiles and friendly comments from carers, and it doesn't seem to matter how hard they might be working! I appreciate their positive and calm attitude so much, especially as sometimes I arrive worried about Mum or rushed off my feet, and their calm accepting and patient attitude works like a soothing balm at those times! I can see how well Mum responds to this kind of treatment. Although Mum has advanced dementia, being a teacher and a very active kind of person, and a naturally born leader, she has always loved people and with her outgoing nature has always been a magnet for likeminded people. I love the way the carers recognised these qualities in her and encourage her to be herself. You're all a complete Godsend - thank you so much for all you do for Mum!
What a wonderful review Rachel..... thank you so very much. Mum is a beautifully kind natured lady. It has been lovely to share memories of travel with her through you and your family.

What a wonderful review Rachel..... thank you so very much. Mum is a beautifully kind natured lady. It has been lovely to share memories of travel with her through you and your family. It is equally reassuring to know that she has an amazingly supportive family who clearly love her dearly. We love to hear stories about you all and enjoy your visits to the home. Mum and i can often be seen to be arm in arm, humming or singing and certainly dancing! She is truly a lovely lady and we are both humbled and proud to be a part of her life.
Dad's...
Dad's behaviour has become even more challenging, but the staff are wonderful with him, respectful, patient and kind. They are also very kind and supportive towards my sister and I, always keeping us well informed. Any health issues are dealt with quickly.
Although Dad doesn't really respond well now, there are activities every day for residents, and his dietary needs are now being met, with help feeding if he needs it.
My sister and I are so grateful to have found the Mountains and it's wonderful staff, and have no hesitation in recommending them.

Thank you so much for your kind review |Wendy... we fully appreciate and understand that dad often finds it difficult to express his needs and his presentation can often be upsetting for you and your sister. However, there are moments when he can and will engage in activity and he particularly likes the sensory work. We make every effort to maintain dad's independence where possible and he is still able to make decisions regarding his menu choices, drinks and other basic needs. There are also times when dad can engage in conversation about his working life, these are special moments too. I will share your lovely feedback with the team and I know they will be happy to hear such positive comments. Of course, if you need support at anytime, please do speak with myself or any other member of the team. We are here for you as well as dad. Take care.
I have been meaning to write a formal review for some time as Mum has lived at the Mountains since last October and I have been very happy with the care she receives. Just over a week ago Mum received a visit from her sister, and two great friends, who Mum has not seen for over a year. As I felt it...
Personally, I too find all staff very committed and very supportive - the nurses, carers, housekeeping, activities team- and I have had excellent communication with the new Manager.
Many thanks all!

Thank you so much for your wonderful review Stephen. It is so nice to hear that your families first impressions of the service are positive. I will certainly share your feedback with the team as it makes such a difference to morale when they hear words like 'committed' 'very warm' and 'caring'.

Thank you for your feedback. it was an absolute pleasure to support you and your husband for your first experience of respite care. We are thrilled that you have confirmed another three weeks respite with us this month and we hope to meet your expectations and push those ratings to a 5 star review. See you soon.
I am particularly grateful for the kindness, tolerance and patience and the smile of all the carers, without exception. They help make the sadness of my wife's condition a little more bearable, and I am very grateful. What would we do without all the immigrant carers?

Mum is very happy in the mountains care home. The staff are very professional, courteous and caring, saving me a lot of worry and frequent phone calls. Communication is very good and the activities are excellent. I was emotionally exhausted and feeling terribly guilty at placing Mum into care but now when I visit it comes with the warmest welcome and I can enjoy quality time with Mum. It's a great comfort to see her, well cared for and happy. So thank you all for such a brilliant and vital service.
