The website claimed that the home was highly experienced in dealing with dementia, but our experience was that it was very limited and detrimental to our father's well being. Limited staff and limited activities.

Hello,
Thank you for taking the time to post a review. We take the privacy of all our residents very seriously so we are unable to discuss individual cases on a public forum. We are sorry that the needs of your father could not be met by our team and hope that you have found a more suitable home for him.
With best wishes,Daphney

My mother moved into Porterbrook Care Home in Sheffield just before Christmas 2016. She is a different person now and has thrived in the excellent environment of the care home and with the care provided by staff and management. It's a new care home and there is clearly time available for the staff to spend with the residents - as there aren't many yet - but I'm sure the level of care will continue when it's full capacity.
5 star care home. As good as any 5 star hotel with excellent staff and facilities.

Brenda is one of our residents and has recently taken on the role of being our in-house Librarian. Brenda says, “I like being useful, and I love to write, but don’t do it often now. I love looking through the books and their covers and choosing which ones I might like to read. I’ve been told we might be starting up a mobile library for residents in their rooms, and then I will be stamping or using tickets for the books.”
