My mother is always sitting clean and tidy when I visit. Management and staff are so friendly at all times, nothing is ever a bother to them. If there are any changes with mum's well being I am informed right away. The home is kept so clean and tidy at all times. Mum is very content in the home. She loves getting her hair done and taking part in the activities.

Review from Jean T (Daughter of Resident) published on 28 January 2025 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

My mother is always in clean clothing and comfortable in clean, warm bedding. Also, for me, the simple thing of no hairs visible on her face is so pleasing to see, especially since there is little verbal communication and I sit quietly beside Mum. The staff have always been kind, helpful and respectful. I have never received an unwelcoming demeanour. Also, the care home is kept very clean, tidy and fresh. I would just like to say thank you on behalf of myself and siblings.

Reply from Gavin Kelly, Director at Marina Care Home

I would recommend Marina Care Home to any person looking for care for a family member. My wife has been in Marina Care Home for over 4 years and is treated with great support and dignity. The staff at Marina Care Home are so helpful and friendly. The food and support my wife gets are second to none. Her clothes in her room are always so clean. It's great to know that Marina Care Home is on the top twenty care homes list. I'm so glad that I got my wife into Marina Care Home.

Review from Catherine M (Niece of Resident) published on 7 May 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My aunt was a resident in Marina Care Home for eight weeks, after two weeks in hospital, before she was able to return home. She received care that was first class. It was care of a personal nature and was evident from the very first evening she arrived after being released from hospital. I visited her two to three times each week during her stay and saw first-hand the personal relationship she had built with the staff and the excellent caring attention she received with staff often going above and beyond their duties. Whilst my aunt was delighted to be able to return home, she was very sad to leave the personalities she had forged a bond with.

Reply from Gavin Kelly, Director at Marina Care Home

Many thanks for taking the time to place a review regarding your aunt's recent stay in Marina, We are delighted to note the high level of care your aunt received and that she enjoyed her stay in Marina. We hope that her health continues to improve as she settles back into her home.

Marina Care Home staff have been excellent in every way. As a family, we have been so very impressed with Dad's care. Everyone is so very friendly and thoughtful, seeing to Dad's every need.

Review from Nicholas C (Son of Resident) published on 21 September 2023 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience
My father came into Marina Care Home on 18/7/23. he died 2/9/23.
During that period Dad's care by all the staff was excellent. The care and support they gave Dad and ourselves was first class.
Nothing was ever a problem. They went over and above to be supportive. Food and cleanliness, were second to none.

Highly recommend this home, and thank you to them all. The scores reflect this home.
