Review from Polly (Regular Volunteer) published on 23 April 2019 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

I’ve been volunteering weekly in Chamberlain Road Nursing Home for the 3 years and think it is a wonderful care home. There are a few things that led me to this opinion:
1) The residents I’ve got to know all enjoy living there.
2) The staff have always been extremely friendly to me and I’ve only

ever seen them behaving in the same way towards residents. They are approachable and always happy to help.
3) The care home is in good condition and is always clean.
4) There are lots of activities and events on offer for residents to join in with. These include trips to nice coffee shops, watching strictly come dancing (and other similar weekly programmes), festive events and creative workshops. These are completely optional and attendance by residents is highly variable but I think residents largely enjoy them when they do attend.

Review from Anne A (Stepdaughter of Resident) published on 26 June 2018 Submitted via Postal Card • Report

Overall Experience

My stepfather lived at Chamberlain Road Nursing Home for 16 months until his death peacefully at the home. The staff were great at helping him settle in and to cope with the death of my mother and the immense loneliness that came with it. He settled in much faster than I expected and I think considered

many of the staff to be friends and not just carers. I visited him frequently and was invariably welcomed and made to feel as if I was in his home, occasionally staying for a meal - lovely food. Staff turnover is low. It does feel more like a real home than many other care homes do and I am so glad it was there for my stepfather when he needed it.

Review from Robin R (Husband of Resident) published on 28 March 2018 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

The home and its facilities are excellent in every respect, but it is the staff who make this home exceptional. The management is professional through and through, the staff are highly trained - as one would hope for and expect - but they all bring genuine kindness, compassion and respect to those in

their care and their families. It has been a constant reassurance to know that my wife is safe and extremely well cared for and that is because the staff inspire such confidence and trust. I cannot praise them or thank them enough for the way in which they not only look after my wife but also show such care and understanding to me and my family.

Review from Philippa p (Daughter-in-law of Resident) published on 22 March 2018 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

My mother-in- law lived here for the last 5 years. She was a very independent lady and it was only her failing sight at aged 97 that compromised her ability to care for herself.
The staff were very tactful in the way they kept her sense of independence whilst managing her increasing need for care.
The

low turnover of staff meant that she was able to make long-lasting friendships with the nurses and carers, who were also able to plan and anticipate her care needs well.
In the last 18 months, my mother-in-law developed vascular dementia, which Chamberlain staff managed with skill and tender care.
My mother-in-law died aged 103 peacefully and with dignity. The staff couldn't have been more helpful and supportive to us all.

Review from Susan M (Daughter of Resident) published on 15 March 2018 Submitted via Postal Card • Report

Overall Experience

My mother now 101 has been in Chamberlain Road Nursing Home since January 2010, this is now eight years. I have always been very pleased indeed with the professional care she has received, changing and adjusting over the years, and I have been especially grateful for the real quality of care in the

true sense that she has had at Chamberlain, as I am her only child and have to be away for months at a time. I always know mum is safe and happy.

Review from Sue T (Daughter of Resident) published on 18 January 2018 Submitted via Postal Card • Report

Overall Experience

My mother was only at Chamberlain Road Nursing home for a few weeks before she passed away. I cannot even begin to thank all the staff for their extraordinary kindness and compassion they showed her. The level of care was superb in every way.
I cannot fault a thing from the beautiful rooms, delicious

food but most importantly the wonderful staff.
And not a whiff of wee ever in any part of the home, unlike other homes I've been in! Beyond fabulous. Thank you for everything.

Review from Mags E (Daughter of Resident) published on 8 November 2017 Submitted via Postal Card • Report

Overall Experience

My mother lived and as cared for at Chamberlain Nursing Home for the last two and a half years. She has always been looked after in a respectful, dignified and personal way. Her vegan diet has been catered for and she was encouraged and enabled to personalise her room as much as she wished.
As a visitor

I have always been welcomed and the staff have always made themselves available to discuss any issues.
Of particular note has been my mothers end of life care which I was very happy with and made this time much easier to cope with.

Overall Experience

I am always welcomed and acknowledged when I go to see my mother. I am asked if I would like tea or coffee. Nothing is any trouble to any of the staff. My mother gets on well with staff.

Review from S M (Daughter of Resident) published on 28 December 2015 Submitted via Postal Card • Report

Overall Experience

Warm, caring, approachable staff who give excellent care to my mum also making me feel very at home. Staff attention to details is spot on, eg my mum's light weight china coffee cup at the dining table. The social/leisure staff run an excellent programme, including weekly 1/2 day but trio and arts and

craft sessions. Food is well presented, small portions, very tasty and staff provide alternatives according to what residents would like. Relatives are very welcome at meals also.
