My aunt has never eaten so well and says all the food is delicious. Plenty of activities to keep her amused. I'd recomend this home to anyone worried about a relative who can no longer look after themselves. It is fabulous.
Thank you for sharing your experience of the care home with others. I am glad we are able to provide a positive experience for your aunt which in turn offers you, as a family member, peace of mind.
My mum is at the stage where she can no longer stay at home herself. Renfrew is a care home close to where she had lived for most of the last 55 years so we were keen to view it. From the first visit, the friendliness and attentiveness of the staff came through strongly. The room that my mum has been in for the last 3 or 4 months is secure, comfortable and is getting more personalised with time. Mum is in a much safer environment now and that makes everyone, including herself, more relaxed and able to enjoy the good bits of life with less worry.
I have only rated good as I am not there all the time, but what from I see I can't complain.
The staff do a great job.
My father was placed within this care home for 6 months. The home is poorly run and the staff are shouty, rude and inexperienced. Experience with dementia is zero. Handovers between staff are non-existent, there are no qualified nurses on hand and other users personal notes were placed in my father's care notes in error. The gardens are locked and activities to stimulate are non-existent. I would avoid this care home at all costs.
We are sorry to hear that this has been your experience but we do feel this does not reflect the positive stay that residents at Renfrew Care Home have. We do try to resolve any concerns that families raise with us and tailor our care accordingly. At times due to individual support needs access to...
