We are so pleased you are happy with the level of care you receive. You're not difficult at all, you just keep us on our toes-and we wouldn't have it any other way. It's our pleasure to care for you and we thank you for your review.
The most important thing when I moved into the care home was that I felt safe. Having had several falls prior to moving in so this was important. I have a nice room which I enjoy. I am happy to call West Cliff Hall Care Home 'My home'

All of the carers are helpful, friendly and not too busy when you need help. The residents are very clean and spacious with excellent views. The staff are also helpful and friendly, always have time to listen to you. When he was in his last home he was in his room most of the times, so got very depressed. He is very happy at West Cliff.

Having visited my grandmother in law I have found the place very clean, very friendly and when I have visited her in the dining area the food looks excellent. She looks very happy and well in her self.

Building lovely, staff cheerful and good facilities. Unfortunately my Stepfather was seriously let down though. Alarm bells rang 2 days in and met manager to discuss. Lots of encouraging words but sadly had to remove Dad 2 days later. Unable to maintain medication timings, unable to manage his...
Hope they've improved and hired more staff but I would urge anyone to caution before placing a loved one there.

My mum was very agitated and upset when she moved in but staff have been wonderful, patient and kind to me and mum. Things have settled well and I've been impressed by the professionalism of all staff. Nothing has been too much trouble.

We can't thank everyone at West Cliff Care Home enough for looking after our mum and keeping her safe, also for keeping us well informed on any changes throughout her stay, between February 17th 2024 - 19th of August 2024 when our mum sadly passed away peacefully and in no pain.

We can't thank everyone at West Cliff Care Home enough for looking after our mum and keeping her safe, also for keeping us well informed on any changes throughout her stay, between February 17th 2024 - 19th of August 2024 when our mum sadly passed away peacefully and in no pain. On the last visit I made on the 19th, carers were keeping a vigil on her every fifteen minutes. My mum was made comfortable with a view out onto the garden where squirrels and birds could be seen. I was able to say my goodbyes to my mum and my visitors were very dignified. We were able to set up a community tea at the college where I work. The carers brought along the residents including my mum to enjoy sandwiches, savouries and cakes, baked and served and music performed by students. As I could join my mum it made for a very special afternoon. A big thank you to everyone at West Cliff Care Home. The carers, catering and activities staff, cleaning staff and management. All carried out their duties to a professional and high standard. Many thanks again from all the family.

Firstly, I would like to send our condolences for the loss of your mother, I would also like to thank you for taking the time to write such a compassionate and heartfelt review. All the staff at West Cliff Hall make sure they show each resident the care, kindness and support they need daily. We also like to care and support the families and friends who visit their loved ones at the home. It is lovely to hear your mother could attend the community tea you had organised at your workplace, memories which will last forever. We always make sure our residents feel part of society and can still do all the things they are used to and more. I would like to thank you once again for your wonderful review and I will be sure to pass your comments on to the team at West Cliff Hall.

Today mum didn't get a morning coffee. Lunch today was chicken curry or vegetable curry! No other choice. Dessert, was banana and pudding, when my mum asked 'what is the pudding' the person said pudding.
Obliviously the person did not know what the pudding was or didn't understand English. Mum asked for toilet paper early morning and didn't get them until 3:15pm. Today the room has not been cleared or hoovered.
This is just one example of many in the past few months.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention, we are very disappointed you have experienced such a negative visit to the home to see your mother. We take all feedback very seriously; our aim is to provide the best possible care to those we support at West Cliff Hall. We do give more than the main choices on the daily menu, we would have been able to facilitate other alternatives around the lunchtime service, the chefs just need to know what the residents would enjoy eating on that day. As the team work hard daily to provide a safe, happy and calming environment for all our residents it is very unfortunate to hear your feedback about the cleanliness of the home. Please rest assured I will be passing your comments on to the senior management team so they can contact you directly. Once again I can only apologise for your experience on your visit, and we strive to move forward.
I am happy here. Love the food. The staff are great. Have made friends. It is very clean. I am happy and content.

We cannot thank the staff enough for the care and love they gave him. He was always clean, shaven and fed. The staff were caring and compassionate and always on call. My dad always had a smile on his face and often told us how much they looked after him. Both my sister and I can't thank you enough.

Dad's stay started poorly due to the room he was put in. One of your carers was very empathetic and compassionate to his problems and was instrumental in getting Dad moved to a much better room (an excellent room). This enabled Dad's stay to be more enjoyable.
