My mother and I are no strangers to Care Homes. My dad was in two and my mum is now in her forth. From my first visit to look around the home, everyone has met us with a smile and made us feel extremely welcome. The rooms are a good size and the food is of better quality and greater variety than anything Mum has experienced previously. The vast majority of the caring and nursing staff have gone out of their way to make Mum feel at home, but particular mention needs to go to the Activities team. Not only are they hard working and innovative, but they have gone above and beyond to get to know Mum and get her involved in all sorts of activities. She has been out of her room more in the last 3 months than in the previous three years.

My Dad has only been in the care home for one week. All the staff have made him feel so welcome and talk to him if he is feeling anxious or sad or just having an off day. This is all new to my dad as up to a week ago he was living on his own. I find all the staff are always happy to answer my...

It was a good decision. My family have all been and are very happy with what they see, and are so pleased that I am well looked after.
There are activities to join in if you wish, a cinema and a large lounge and a garden to enjoy. Also a "CAFE" where we can entertain our visitors. The staff are all friendly and so helpful. Brunel has given me a home and more.
It is a real pleasure for us to care for you, and your kind words are very much appreciated by everyone here.
From the moment we arrived the staff were very attentive and organised every thing we needed to get dad settled in.
My mum is also here on a different floor and the progress she has made is fantastic.
We could not ask for better care .

The care for my mother, who was dying, was faultless. The care staff and nurses did everything and more, to ensure mum was comfortable and felt cared for and loved. The care staff also provided care to us as family at this very stressful time. They kept us informed, sat with mum when we were away and gave us love and support.
The staff are caring and show interest in the patients. There are lots of activities for the residents. Staff are alert to medical conditions. The Home is clean and tidy. The outside space is well presented. Staff are pleasant towards relatives and make them feel welcome and included.

The reception was clean and both staff on desks were incredibly welcoming and polite. It was clean and pleasant, bright, and the atmosphere was positive from the get go.
Walking through the corridor you could see all the posters and programmes for the week and upcoming events, the lifestyle team clearly go above and beyond in organising activities catered to the residents.
I was fortunate enough to meet the dementia ambassador who gave me an insight into how those living with a cognitive impairment recognise the world around them, and I was even more fortunate to sit with some residents and get to know them and their life stories.
Everyone at the home was an absolute pleasure to speak to, if I had to put a relative into care i would 100% choose Brunel
We're grateful for your kind words and pleased you feel our team is making a positive difference to those that live with us.
The Brunel Care Home was excellent in all areas of the respite stay. It was pleasant week with everything provided. Management were efficient and friendly and helpful. Food was good and varied.

She really enjoyed the entertainments and the creative classes laid on, also the Christmas Carol service. Mum frequently reported back that the food was delicious, especially the puddings!
Thank you all, for the genuine love & care given to my lovely Mum, you are a great team.
Thank you for sharing such a heartfelt message. We're delighted your mum settled in so well and enjoyed the friendly team, activities, and delicious meals. It means a great deal to know she felt so loved and cared for.
Mum arrived at Brunel House in Nov 2024 with some trepidation, however, the staff were absolutely wonderful & she soon settled in. Mum said on many occasions how happy & content she was & that she had made the right decision to move in. Mum loved chatting to the staff & fellow residents, taking...
Mum, myself & my sister were given peace of mind knowing Mum was safe, loved and cared for.

The rest of your homes should use Brunel as a blueprint for the best care of both residents and family. Mums death was very quick but your staff not only took time to look after Mum but also us, as family. The speed of Mums death was a shock but I can't fault all the home did. We we consolled, not just by carers, but also cleaners, maintenance and chefs.
Many thanks to you all, you know who you are!!!
Thank you so much for writing this kind review at such a difficult time for your family. We appreciate your lovely words and we will share them with the team who work very hard to ensure all our residents and their families are cared for. You will always be welcome at Brunel House.

I love interacting with the residents at Brunel House as I carry out my administration duties. I provide support to the Home Manager, Deputy Manager, relatives and residents, as well as other departments within the home.
My biggest achievement whilst working here has been understanding the payroll admin, because it was very difficult to get to grips with. It felt like learning a foreign language!
When I'm not at work, I like to spend time with family and friends; we go to the cinema or to the races.

I've worked at Brunel House since 2016. I enjoy working in Reception and meeting all the relatives (they actually become friends after a while).
I have met a lot of very interesting people and shared many ups and downs with them. I believe it's nice to see a friendly face when you walk into the home and try to give a happy vibe to visitors.
I also get the chance to make friends with a lot of the residents and help them in whatever way I can.I work with a lot of very nice, caring people of all age groups- I like that, especially as I am one of the oldest members of staff!

Hi, my name is Stacy and I am the Dementia Ambassador at Brunel House. My role as an ambassador is to promote person-centred care of the highest standard. I have recently qualified as a trainer with the Alzheimer's Society, this will play a key role in raising awareness and understanding of dementia, and make a positive difference to our residents by empowering our team to develop good practice.
I have worked within the care sector for 19 years and have been at Brunel House since 2013. Whilst at Brunel House I trained as a Care Practitioner and have also worked as an Activities coordinator.
Delivering activities and social events remains a big part of who I am. To make someone smile or hear them laugh, to be the person who has brightened someone's day, to be the ears to listen and the arms that comfort, to redirect thoughts and feelings that may shadow them at times: this is the best feeling in the world.
I live locally with my husband and two daughters. Family is everything to me and we spend our spare time creating cherished memories.

In her spare time, Iesha likes to go on 'adventures' - do ask about those when you meet her. She also enjoys playing bingo and spending time with her family.
