I was visiting my friend when I needed help, carers were there immediately. All the staff were friendly and helpful. My friend is very comfortable and is certainly well looked after. The atmosphere in the home is warm and friendly.

Mother was sent to this care home by NHS CHC after having a hip operation. She has mental capacity but the care home is completely unsuitable for such a person since there is no segregation from people with dementia. She became depressed with the environment and after three weeks was re-admitted to hospital with a heart attack. Four hours passed after she first reported feeling unwell before an ambulance was called.
The laundry service lost at least two items of her clothing since it does not mark the clothing but relies on residents or relatives to do so.
Most of the staff were cheerful and helpful and treated her with care and respect.

Most importantly, the staff are very good. They are very friendly and kind towards my mother and we feel that she is well looked after.
The food is also quite tasty, offers a huge variety from day to day.
Our only issue is the cost, particularly was we do not benefit from any government assistance and changes in management.
I am very happy about my experience at Buckingham House. The facilities are excellent, the care specialist, the food good and the organisation well managed.

Mum has lived at Buckingham House for nearly two years and has consistently been cared for in a kind, gentle and professional manner. As her needs have increased so has the level of support both she and we ourselves have received. The staff treat her as an individual and will always work with us to resolve any minor problems that arise, suggesting solutions to issues and being flexible in their approach. We are confident that she is in good hands and that her life is as safe and happy as can be in the circumstances.
Can't fault the care given. The care assistants are lovely with my dad.
Couldn't wish for a better care home.

The food is good but the evening meals need subsidising with a sandwich sometimes.

My friend, who I visit, was sitting at the dining table, having finished her lunch. She was asleep. The carers cleaned her up and moved her into the lounge into her chair. I'd like it if she could be cleaned up better, like a wash of the hands and proper face wash. Otherwise, crusty food is left on the face and it's quite unsightly. Carers are nice and friendly and chatty and generally very helpful. Sometimes there's a strong urine smell, maybe more changes are needed.

My 92 year old mother spent the last 6 months of her life in Buckingham House following a severe stroke that left her totally dependant on nursing care. I chose Buckingham House because it didn't have an institutionalized feel to it and because the manager at the time was so warm and welcoming of my mother. I could not fault the attitude of the staff towards her. They took time to feed her, they were kind, gentle, caring and respectful. I didn't always think they made use of the information we provided and we had a few problems with clothes- belongings but overall i was satisfied with mums care.
