Mum seems to enjoy her time here. She says everyone is very nice. I find the staff very nice also. I do have an issue with Mum's washing. There is a notice on her toilet door saying that her washing must go home, but often I go and there is no washing there. Then I have to go looking for her clothes as they seem to go missing.
Thank you for your review; we value all feedback as this helps us to improve our service where required. Thank you for your positive comments regarding our home, we will closely monitor the issue you are experiencing with your Mother’s washing and put measures in place to resolve this.
I am particularly well cared for at this house.

Unfortunately this care home experienced a pretty severe drop in standards in 2017, however all agencies have been involved in trying to 'right the ship'. Many improvements have been made and it is to be hoped that progress will continue. Any problems, when drawn to the attention of staff and the temporary manager, seem to be resolved. 3 years ago the home seemed to be excellent. Hopefully the same high standards can be achieved again.
Overall, pleased with the care given to mum during her stay at Drummohr Care Home. The staff and management are all excellent and the food is first class.

Drummohr feels like "a happy home". Dad's weight was very low when we arrived. With the help of masses of good wholesome food and snacks, we see a difference in him. Dad is offered to take part in lots of activities and encouraged with other stuff.
After years of caring for dad and the challenges that were brought with them, we are now able to just enjoy dad knowing he is in good hands.

Drummohr Care Home staff are genuinely friendly, caring and endlessly patient. I couldn't wish for a better place for my father, who is not an easy character to deal with. Medical attention is prompt and of a high standard. All my father's wishes and requirements are dealt with promptly and with a total acceptance of his own peculiar foibles. Standards of cleanliness are also consistently high. I would unhesitatingly recommend Drummohr to anyone who is looking for a care home for a family member.

I am delighted with the care my mum is receiving at Drummhor. The home has a lovely relaxed ambience, a very homely feel. The residents spend time in the lounge where activities take place or some like to sit in the foyer to welcome visitors. The staff are all wonderful and treat all residents with respect, in fact, they are so very caring. The food is all cooked freshly on the premises great variety, something for everyone and plenty of it. Very clean and no smell.
My mum (age 89) has been a resident in Drummohr for nearly 2 years. I had a great deal of fear and trepidation when I first arranged for her care in the home. Mum has Alzheimer's is doubly incontinent and has severe impairment of intelligence. However she has not deteriorated that much in the 2...
"Happy atmosphere", "Plenty of activities", "Clean facilities-bathes/showers/wet rooms".
"Pleasant staff", "Lovely one to ones with staff and mum".
"Treat mum with dignity when attending to her incontinence need", "Lovely meals- staff encourage/help mum to eat", "Mum has good mobility so is able to go to tea dances, shopping trips with staff in the homes mini bus".

My gran entered in to Drummohr on 23/12/15 with history of low quality care and a very anxious family. My gran is diagnosed with dementia. I myself work in care and have experienced this industry in various locations and numerous roles and I am in awe at the way the manager runs the care home- creating a loving and welcoming environment at all times. The manager is so hands on making sure she is familiar with every guest and their families between her and the senior carer my gran has come on extraordinarily, they have literally given her her life back. They do not label my gran as another lady with dementia, they see the person that she was and is. I am so grateful to the staff at Drummohr especially the manager and other staff who deal with her on a regular basis, keeping her safe and happy, all that we want and more.
I have nothing but praise for all members of staff. The care my mother-in-law receives is splendid. She has been in home, no issues. A very clean and pleasant bedroom, well serviced and kept very tidy.

For my aunts birthday, the family had planned to take her out for a meal, but unfortunately she wasn't fit enough. Instead the staff arranged for us to use the private room and they supplied all the food including her cake. Thank you Drummohr Care Home.

Mum has moved into Drummohr Care Home in December 2015 when it became apparent that the residential care home where she stayed could no longer give her the care she needed. She was diagnosed with alzheimers in 2008 and her behaviour was becoming very challenging. I have found the staff very good and very professional when working with mum. The staff are very helpful and willing to listen to any concerns I have, either about mum or myself. I am very happy with the care mum receives.
My mum has been in the home since November last year. She is very happy. They look after her very well.

Home staff are very welcoming to both my family and my father. Nothing is too much trouble and they are very approachable. My father is very happy there and is bring looked after as if he was one of the family.

The home is lovely, all the facilities are good and the staff are great. Only downside is I wish there was a snooker room.
