Dad had a very quick transition. Had a fall at home on 2nd September, resulting in a bleed on the brain. I was told it was unsafe for him to return home as he lived alone. The hospital wouldn't would not discharge him until he he had a safe place to go to. Phoned the care home, to be told they couldn't take him until the 8th October. When I explained the situation, they fast tracked everything to accommodate his needs. He was discharged to honeysuckle house on the 29th September. Big change for dad, he has lived in flitwick for 66yrs, independently for 3yrs after my mum passed. He still has a voice. He has mental capacity. He has had alot of changes all of a sudden, but he was scared he wouldn't be listened too. They listened, So far, so good. Respect to all the staff.
Many thanks for your positive review, we were pleased to have been able to assist with your dad's admission and settling into Honeysuckle House, we welcome all feedback and continue to strive to give our residents the best care personalised to their requirements
