I have no previous experience of nursing homes but the care and attention given seems to be satisfactory and patients appear to be comfortable and reasonably content and clean.

My mother has been in The Beeches for nearly a year now and although things have been difficult for us at times, the staff have been very supportive to us as a family throughout this time. They are always there if we need them for advice and help. They are very attentive to all the residents and there is a happy atmosphere at all times.
Living away I was especially grateful for this good place for my father. I saw and heard of only exceptional personal care and attention in every way.

Since my husband moved to The Beeches I have been impressed by the level of care and support that we have both received. Kindness and support shown to us both from the staff.

Mum has only been in the home for a couple of months but I have been very pleased with the care shown to her by the staff. I am relieved and feel assured that she is being well looked after.

Our mother has been in the Beeches since January. She is very well looked after and has a lovely room. The staff are kind and helpful and friendly. I would definitely recommend this nursing home to anyone who is looking for a place for their relatives or friends.

My only gripe is there doesn't appear to be a lot of activities/entertainment on offer for stimulation.
Perhaps some knitting needles/crochet hooks etc, packs of cards or dominoes or puzzle books etc. left in view or placed on tables when they come back to the lounge.

We are pleased to hear that your aunt has settled well into The Beeches and that you have been happy with how supportive the staff have been.We continually strive to improve our activities for residents within all of our homes and we always value comments regarding how we can improve our service. Indeed, due to feedback received we have recently started a knitting club in The Beeches. We will also look at providing other easy to use activities that you have suggested.

First impressions mean a lot to me and from my first visit until now, the staff have always been friendly, welcoming and open with answers to any questions I have had. Home is not too big either and is easy to navigate. Everyone has been very supportive and understands that this environment is new to the resident, and the family, so offer tips to help you get through things. Nothing is too much trouble, and any issues are addressed relatively quickly depending on what it is.
General maintenance for things like light bulbs could be dealt with more quickly though, as I had to ask three times for a bulb to be replaced in Mum's room. There is only one maintenance man who unfortunately has been off for a number of weeks so would be helpful if a 'relief' was available for these situations. There is a refurbishment plan in place with new carpets due for the upstairs lounge, along with redecoration of some main areas according to the recent newsletter. The home is well kept but is a little tired in some places which the refurb should address. This does not have an effect on the cleanliness of the home.
Rooms are good sized, with sturdy furniture and nicely decorated. Residents can personalise their room however they want. Each room is deep cleaned before a new resident moves in too. The ensuite is spacious but does not have a shower, however the bathrooms are very spacious with either a bath or wet room shower with all the appliances that are likely to be needed.
Home has their own minibus which was one of my reasons for choosing it, however it is unfortunate that there is only one volunteer driver who at time of writing this review, had been unable to take the residents on outings for quite a number of weeks. The Manager is very keen to get outings back on the agenda but getting another driver is quite a challenge. This is such a shame as the bus is sitting idle when many residents would love a wee trip to local garden centres, parks or theatres. I really hope this is addressed soon.
The daily menu is displayed in reception and sounds really appetising. Main meal is at lunch time with a lighter tea in the evening. Kitchen will accommodate special requests as far as possible, but it's worth keeping in mind that the menus are controlled from Head Office and not on site. There seems to be a lot of soup and sandwiches on offer for tea regularly, so would be good to hear that more choices are considered for this.
Overall I'm happy with The Beeches after Mum being here for two months.

Thank you very much for your detailed feedback. We are delighted that you are happy with the care your Mum has been receiving and that you are made to feel so welcome when you visit. As a company HC-One strive to provide adequate cover for all departments within the home including during periods of absence so that a quality service can be maintained. As part of this we also strive to ensure that appropriate activities are arranged for our Residents including regular outings. Unfortunately it has been difficult to recruit volunteer drivers therefore at present outings are limited but we are continuing to recruit to increase the number of outings.
