I would like to say a massive thank you to certain staff who have made a massive difference to my uncle's quality of life. After a challenging few weeks, Susan switched from carer to activities. My uncle had not experienced any activities or 1:1 until this point. He is now joining in any activity on offer with the encouragement of Susan and nurse Heather. We have seen my uncle thrive which has had a positive impact on not only my uncle but also my dad, his brother. My uncle now says he loves living at Penrose. Thank you Susan and Heather. It's really lovely to hear that you see the peron we have always seen. Please note my ratings below are since the involvement of Susan and Heather.
Thank you so much for taking time to complete a review and delighted that your uncle is settling in his home. We work hard to create a warm and inviting homely settings for all our residents and we will share this with the staff members you have mention and the positive impact they have created, thank you.

We were treated at all times with respect, sympathy and encouragement. The care for my mother was above and beyond - she was treated with compassion, kindness, respect and dignity right to the last. The care and kindness shown to all the family was more than we could ever have asked for - 10 out of 10! Would certainly recommend Penrose to anyone else.

There are no words to describe the wonderful care and attention given to patients at Penrose Court. My husband spent his final days there, during his time there he received care of the highest standard. Care was also extended to myself. A first-class facility in every aspect.

My wife had a major operation on an ankle and was bed bound for five weeks, followed by limited mobility in a leg plaster cast. During the time she was in Penrose Court Care Home she received exemplary care and attention. I was also made very welcome during my visits. Her room was roomy with an excellent television and brighter windows, with a view of the ever-changing neighbourhood. She is now home but if ever she needed to go to a care home for respite and the like, I would have no hesitation going back to Penrose Court.
Thank you so much for taking the time to complete a review and we are delighted that your wife is settled back home. We work hard to create a warm and inviting homely setting for all our lovely residents and families and we are delighted that this has been your experience from the outset and thereafter.

My dad has been at Penrose Court for a little over two years now. He is very happy and very settled. We spent Christmas Day with Dad at the home, also having a Christmas dinner.

We couldn't thank the staff enough.

I live some distance from my aunt, so I am unable to visit as often as I'd like! On the last two occasions, her trolley tray looked unclean, and she said she had not had a shower for some time, owing to the fact that there is only one hoist in the home.

I live some distance from my aunt, so I am unable to visit as often as I'd like! On the last two occasions, her trolley tray looked unclean, and she said she had not had a shower for some time, owing to the fact that there is only one hoist in the home. She could not recall when her hair was last washed. I mentioned this to reception, and they booked her a salon appointment - surely, her hair being washed should be during a shower!
Thank you for your comments and it is disappointing to see the above area of concerns, which we continue to address. Please be reassured that we have more than one hoist in the home and we continue to review our care and equipment we have at Penrose Court. Please feel free to come and discuss any concerns when you visit at Penrose Court.

Hi, I am Jay. I am part of the activities team and I run Cut and Glow, our in-house salon here at Penrose Court.
I have been with Penrose since September 2018, just before it opened. I started as part of the care team and then transitioned into my current position. This is not my first time working in a care home as I have previously worked as an activities manager. This is the first salon I have run but I have been cutting hair for 38 years, I know I do not look old enough. I have held a number of jobs over the years, but they have all revolved around people as this has always been a passion. The best part of my job is interacting with the residents.
My passion for activities, particularly arts and crafts continues outside of work as I have my own crafting business. I also love spending time with my family, my favourite afternoons are spent watching Jurassic Park with my grandchildren.

Paul is the weekend receptionist here at Penrose Court
Paul joined quite recently and has been here since the beginning of February but is often told by colleagues and residents alike that it seems like he’s been here for a lot longer. This is Paul’s first time working in the care environment but is finding it very enjoyable and rewarding.
Paul’s background hails from the Civil Service, where he took early retirement after spending over 30 years at the Department of Transport but wasn’t ready to give up and when this job came up it was a 3-minute commute from my home by foot. Paul is also a Magistrate for Hertfordshire and Bedfordshire since joining the bench in 2008 and the requirements here at Penrose Court allow Paul to continue making a difference to the local community.
Paul’s passion for making a difference to people is fully satisfied in this job by the interaction with the residents and their families.
