Overall Experience

Many thanks to Marina Care Home for allowing me to bring Mum to our house for Christmas dinner, Mum thoroughly enjoyed it and it meant a lot to me and my husband to also have my so-loved sister and brother-in-law join us for dinner with Mum, a very enjoyable evening had by all. Mum was looking so well and her mobility has come on so well now, being able to walk on her own etc. The best and much loved wee Mum that I/we could ask for. Love her so much.

Reply from Gavin Kelly, Director at Marina Care Home

Review from I T (Daughter-in-law of Resident) published on 5 September 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I have always felt welcome when visiting my mother-in-law who is a resident in The Marina Care Home. The staff are friendly and helpful and whenever I ask for something to be done for her, they are always very obliging. The atmosphere is relaxed and homely within a safe, person-centred and caring environment which is very reassuring for families visiting their loved ones - thank you!

Overall Experience
My brother is treated with great respect and dignity. He is part of the family there and is so happy. He is well looked after and is fed by a member of staff.

Any time I visit, which is often, the home is clean, my brother is clean and tidy and the staff are so attentive. In my opinion, the best care home in all of the area.

Review from J B (Son of Resident) published on 21 August 2022 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

My mum spent the last three weeks of her life in the Marina Care Home. During that time the care and attention she received was second to none, she was treated with dignity and wanted for nothing. The staff were caring and attentive which meant Mum spent her last days' pain-free and in comfort.

Reply from Gavin Kelly, Director at Marina Care Home

Thank you for taking the time to send a review. It was lovely to note your comments and the positive opinion you have of our team at Marina during your mum's stay with us and hopefully, this gains you some comfort at this time. If there is anything you need please do not hesitate to contact us.

All the staff are very caring and approachable. Nothing is too much that you can ask them eg: another cup of tea for the resident - everything is done happily.

Review from Christine M (Daughter of Resident) published on 29 June 2021 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

My mum is a resident of the home and I visit regularly. I visited today as Deputy Chair of Mid Ulster Council. I was made very welcome and was introduced to some of the residents and the caring team. Some of the residents were having their lunch. Spoke with the manager for a short while too. I could see residents are happy and well cared for.

Reply from Gavin Kelly, Director at Marina Care Home

Many thanks for taking the time to submit a review and for taking the time to visit the home in your capacity as Deputy Chair of the council. We hope that your mum has settled in well to Marina and you enjoy your personal visits as we progress towards more normalised visiting.

Review from Orla B (Daughter of Resident) published on 25 June 2021 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

My father was admitted in July 2020. In the last year, in my experience, all staff have treated my father as if he was their own family member. He is always clean, warm, happy and well-fed. He is treated with dignity at all times and his feelings are always at the forefront of his care. I would highly recommend Marina Care Home from my own experiences.

My mother was very ill when she was admitted to Marina Care Home after suffering a stroke. She now eats, sleeps well, talks to everyone and loves the attention from the staff. The care from the nurses, cars and all staff is exceptional and I highly recommend Marina Care Home.

My mum has been here for quite a while now and has been extremely well looked after. The staff are very friendly and caring. My mum is always happy when I visit and she likes the staff also. She is always clean and tidy looking and her bedroom is clean as well. If I had to, I would stay here myself.

Review from Dympna D (Sister of Resident) published on 27 January 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My sister has been cared for in Marina Care Home for almost 10 months and we, as a family, are delighted with the care she receives. Anything we ask for is never a problem. Every visit made was always a pleasure, they even provided a cake for birthday and wedding celebrations. Every phone call is answered, and more importantly, they returned calls when asked to do so. My brother-in-law receives so much reassurance from staff which helps and contents him so much. We would recommend this care home to anyone in need of care. Thank you all so much.

Overall Experience

My father has been here since 8th February 2019 after we were told he had 3 months to live. As you can guess, due to the amazing care he receives, he's still here. In March this year he was diagnosed as diabetic but, again due to his brilliant care, he's now off medication for this condition because they got it under control. During this pandemic, they have kept everyone safe and well and provide the love and attention the families can't at present.
