My parents have now been in your care home for 19 months and I cannot fault the care they receive. Nothing is too much trouble for your managers and staff and they are very approachable if I have a problem or question. 'Care' is the appropriate word!

Staff work hard but at times, there are just about enough of them. Agency staff, on the whole, have been good but one having said my husband was wet because he had spilt his drink so didn't see the need to change him, should have been told off by regular staff but wasn't. I insisted he changed him.

Staff are very pleasant and friendly. My brother has improved greatly since he has been at Prince George House but I would like my brother to have a bit more physio on his left hand.

I am glad to hear that our staff provide a pleasant environment and your brother has improved since he been with us.With regard to your comments on physiotherapy, as this is a service provided externally from the home, the respective General Practitioner will be asked to make a decision on your brother’s needs. However, I can confirm that we have already taken steps to inform the GP, in order that an assessment can be made.

I can’t fault Prince George House. The staff are all incredibly kind and caring and I have absolutely no doubt all those cared for are in great hands.

I am very pleased with the care my husband is receiving. He says he is not happy here and wants to be at home and I do find it difficult to deal with this, I know he can't come home but I do get upset each time I leave him.

Very pleased with care. The resident would appreciate more one to one conversation. Realise this is difficult as many residents and the friendly approach taken now is well received.

Following an extremely unsatisfactory and distressing two week respite stay for our father during June 2018, my family and I are still struggling to secure a face to face meeting with both Prince George and Care UK Management, despite letters of communication and numerous phone calls to seek a satisfactory resolution to an extremely unsatisfactory and distressing experience with this "care home", Prince George House, Ipswich.

Thank you for your recent feedback regarding Prince George House.We are sorry the care we offered your father fell short of expectations, however, following our meeting with your brother in which we agreed on different strategies of support, this improved and was most helpful. This meeting was invaluable as, although we do everything possible to help people settle in quickly, some residents do take some time to accept all aspects of their care from new people. We recognise there was an occasion when personal care was not provided promptly and we have apologised for this.
We are always keen to improve our care delivery and you have subsequently met with the senior management team to talk things through. Prince George House is a highly regarded Ipswich home – the Care Quality Commission rated it as good and it enjoys very favourable ratings on this site where everyone is able to record their experiences. Direct relatives and resident engagement and feedback also remains very favourable from those using the service regularly. Once again we would like to apologise that your experience has not been to the standards that we constantly strive to achieve.
At Prince George House we operate an open door policy and would always encourage any residents or relatives with any concerns to discuss these with our home manager at the earliest opportunity.
The carers and staff at this care home are very good and helpful. More recently in August 2018, they provided a private room and buffet to celebrate her 95th Birthday.

Visits to the Prince George House are enjoyable. My husband is well looked after and is safe. A few more daily activities would be of benefit to some residents. Rooms are very warm so some form of air conditioning would be useful, (I do appreciate we are experiencing unusually hot weather currently). Some form of exercise would be good for the younger residents (gym or pool).
Thank you...
Thank you for your recent feedback regarding Prince George House. We are delighted to hear that you enjoy your visits to the home and would be extremely likely to recommend our service to others. We are pleased to hear that you feel that your husband is well looked after and safe.Thank you also for your comments regarding the room temperatures and activities at the home.
Regarding the room being warm, as you already mentioned, the weather has been extremely hot recently and we have taken additional measures to provide comfort to the residents. All our suite corridors, lounge and dining areas are air-conditioned and we have provided extra fans in the rooms where possible. The family are also welcome to bring any equipment they feel would help. Residents have been encouraged to occupy the lounge and dining areas, which tend to be cooler.
With regard to activities, we currently have 4 lifestyle co-ordinators within the home, with at least one every day (including weekends), organising activities for the residents. We have recently arranged a men’s club, motorbike events and summer fete games specifically aimed at involving younger male residents. We are also planning to put a small gym area in place to encourage exercise. At Prince George House we have an open door policy, and you are always welcome to visit and share any other ideas you may have.
We are always grateful for feedback, positive or negative, in order that we can continually work to improve our service. Once again, thank you for taking the time to pass on your comments.

The cheery greeting from reception.
The daily encouragement from the activities team, maintenance man.
To have ice cream and jelly that she fancied, and wine gums.
The friendly housekeepers - and the carer who visited on her day off to say "Hi" on mum's birthday! Wow!
What can we say?
In mum's words, "Fantastic"!

I joined Care UK in 2015 after achieving my nursing qualification in Romania and working there as a Nurse.
I was looking for a new challenge and decided to apply for a nursing job in the UK. Care UK was recommended to me, and I’ve been here for the past eight years.
Moving to the UK and succeeding in my role in a completely new health system has been the biggest professional challenge in my career. I’ve risen the ranks, starting as a nurse and moving from Clinical Lead to Deputy Manager and now Home Manager.
To do this job well, it’s important to be caring and compassionate, have effective communication skills, problem-solving skills, leadership and resilience. My favourite part of the working day is when I feel that I’ve made a positive difference in someone’s life. I aim to do the best I can to fulfil my job role while practising kindness.
Since I moved to the UK, the residents at Prince George's House and my colleagues have become my second family, and I love and value them all as much as my own family.
When I’m not working, I like to chat with my son and his family who live in Romania. I also unwind by reading, listening to music, playing training programmes to improve my language skills, watching films, and travelling.
