Review from Chris M (Son of Resident) published on 29 August 2023 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
Can not rate Shearwater high enough, Mum has been there 18 months now and she is happy, safe and always smiling. The events they put on are fabulous, a big thank you to the team.
I live a long way away so my sister picks up most of the support for my mum, but whenever I visit she is always happy, clean and content. All I want is for my mum to be happy and safe, Shearwater provides me with that surety.

My wife and I would like to say how pleased and grateful we are to all the staff of Shearwater for the excellent care and support they all gave to our mother.
We were so pleased to know she was safe, well cared for with good food and clean environment. Most of all, they all treated her with respect and dignity.

Inspection ratings
We rate most services according to how safe, effective, caring, responsive and well-led they are, using four levels:
- Outstanding - The service is performing exceptionally well.
- Good - The service is performing well and meeting our expectations.
- Requires Improvement - The service isn't performing as well as it should and we have told the service how it must improve.
- Inadequate - The service is performing badly and we've taken action against the person or organisation that runs it.
- Not rated - we have not yet rated this area of the service, this is normally because the assessments we have carried out have been focused on other key questions.
