The care and support my mother received during what proved to be her last month of life was exceptional. All staff were as supportive to us, her family, as they were to Mum. The thoughtful care, concern, communication and compassion were wonderful and made the experience of Mum's final weeks and days so much better than they might have been.
Thank you for submitting a review about your mum's care at Scissett Mount. We are very pleased that you are happy with your mum's care and treatment in her final weeks of her life. We pride ourselves on ensuring the care needs of people in our care are met in a person-centred manner.
Mum has been at Scissett Mount for three months and is very happy with her care. The staff are very pleasant and helpful. When there have been problems, the management have taken the issue on board and dealt with it.

Having visited my close friend many times, I have always been warmly welcomed and find the care home to be very well run, friendly and exceptionally clean. My friend has settled in well and loves her spacious room and says she is well looked after and seems very happy. The management and staff are very friendly and approachable and are always around to answer questions and provide support. There is a great mix of regular activities and this includes events in the care home and opportunities to go out into the community. There are different outside spaces where residents can walk, sit and enjoy the fresh air. There is a lovely onsite vintage cafe where both residents and visitors can mix over a hot drink and cake.
I came to the care home never expecting to go home and have been given such exceptional care and support to improve my health and mobility that I am returning home against all my expectations. I have always been treated with dignity and respect and I feel I am not leaving carers but leaving friends.

I felt listened to and safe.
The team encouraged me to remember things in a way I could by engaging in conversations related to my interests.
The two weeks have flown by and if I require respite again in the future I would not hesitate to contact them.
The outdoor area at the back is peaceful and calming.
Thank you so much for your kind review, we would love to welcome you back at any time.

Staff are friendly, caring and patient. Continuity of senior staff means they pick up trends in residents' condition. I have never heard a raised voice from staff. Rooms are a good size, clean and with a nice view from most of them. Not the cheapest home available but the level of care and general atmosphere makes it worth it.
Our friend seems happy and settled. She has a lovely room, which is light and airy. The staff are always friendly and helpful whenever we visit, and our friend says that they are lovely.

From the day my wife was admitted, I have seen nothing but dedication from every one of the staff. They will always go that little bit extra to make sure my wife is comfortable. The food is very good, and the staff always make sure drinks are available.

I chose Scissett Mount after going to look around and meeting the manager and deputy manager. You could tell they were passionate about caring for the elderly. Mum is very happy, clean and well cared for, but the main thing is I know she is supported at all times by all the amazing staff. Mum has dementia but sometimes says, “I love this hotel”.
Thank you for your lovely review - It is an absolute pleasure taking care of your Mum. Thank you for your continued support.

My husband was admitted from hospital after a fall when he broke his wrist due to his MS. He usually uses two sticks or a frame to walk. From the very first moment he was admitted, he was made to feel welcome, safe and nothing has been too much trouble. Every member of staff we have come into contact with, whether carers or management, has proved to be kind, caring and professional. It is a testament to all that every resident has seemed happy and content. I would not hesitate to recommend this care home.
Thank you for your comments. It was an absolute pleasure to meet both of you and from all of the team at Scissett Mount, we wish you both well.

“Nothing is too much trouble,” says my mum. The staff are so lovely, helpful and friendly.
“I feel so safe and looked after,” says my mum. The staff are extremely well managed and often pop in on my mum to check if she needs anything.
Any medical issues have been dealt with speedily, and the manager has rung us to keep us informed.
We have nothing but praise for the home, manager and her team. We feel confident in approaching the manager regarding any aspect of my mum’s care. She is completely on the ball, even though my mum has only been there a short time.
The best thing we did was move my mum to Scissett Mount.
Thank you for your lovely words. It is an absolute pleasure to be involved with your Mum's care. Thank you for your continued support of Scissett Mount.

When I call, staff will take the phone to Mum and make sure she can talk easily. Mum is generally happy at Scissett Mount. I was very happy with how they dealt with the passing of my dad in circumstances. Thank you all again.
Thank you for your wonderful feedback and your continued support.

Fantastic home or my brother who has dementia. Arrived in a really bad state, as he has been neglected by people who were supposed to be looking after him. The carers are really good, and he is happy being there. They will go out of their way to help him. He has really perked up in the short time he has been there. These people are an asset to their profession.
Thank you for a lovely review. We look forward to continuing to support your brother and yourself. Thank you for your continued support.
My mum spent 3-weeks there on an intermediate assessment placement after being discharged from the hospital. She'd been diagnosed with vascular dementia after suffering a bang to the head as a result of a fall at home. In the 5-weeks she was in the hospital, she was extremely confused, and I was...
Whilst in the care of the manager and her fantastic team at Scissett Mount, she made an amazing recovery, so much so, that I was able to bring her home yesterday. I'm sure that the care she received played a big part in her recovery, and we are so grateful. I understand that returning home in my mum's circumstances is extremely rare.
Whenever I rang or visited, all the staff were so understanding and professional.
The home itself is very modern and fitted out to a very high standard. I wasn't allowed to go onto the floor or to see her room due to Covid, but the reception area and grounds are very pleasant and quiet.
Thank you for your kind words. It has been an absolute pleasure. We are very happy that your Mum has made it home. We wish all of you the very best in the future, from all of the team here at Scissett Mount.
Mum has only been at Scissett a short time, but my sister and I are very happy with the care and kindness from everyone.

The home is very welcoming, the staff are extremely caring and dedicated. All the facilities are excellent. They gave Mum kindness, support and excellent care and also provided our family with emotional support. I have no hesitation in recommending Scissett Mount.
