Quarry House

I would certainly recommend Quarry House, if you are looking for somewhere, where your loved one, can be looked after and receive a high level of care.

We chose Quarry House because they had a Specialist Dementia Unit which our family needed badly to take care of Dad. They were kind, caring and compassionate from the start. Dad could not stay at home due to extremely challenging behaviour at times so after quite a search, Quarry House helped him and us. Sadly Dad passed away so could not return after a stint in hospital. I would recommend Quarry House to everyone as they did Dad proud. Thank you so much.

We have already recommended the home to other people.

The staff are helpful, friendly and accommodating. They check on Mum frequently and do their best to meet her needs.

My friend with dementia is contented to be living at Quarry House. The staff have got to know her, her likes and dislikes, and are kind and respectful. They encourage her to join in the activities that she enjoys. The nurses are alert to her medical needs. Her general health and well-being have improved in the year since she came to live here.

Quarry House Care Home is an outstanding care provider who has cared for both of my grandparents. Both of my grandparents have enjoyed their time at Quarry House and all of the staff have been very supportive of them and us as a family. The care they have received is outstanding and tailored directly to meet their needs. Well done Quarry House and thank you!

My mother entered Quarry House Care Home for palliative care and she has been so incredibly well looked after. I don't believe staff could do more. The rooms are light, bright and cheerful. The nursing staff are so very kind, thoughtful and nothing is too much trouble. Most importantly, my mum feels safe and comfortable.

Quarry House is one of the best nursing homes I have been in. I was a care assistant for many years. The care and food is excellent and the family is looked after as they are going through a very difficult time, my family could not wish for better care for my husband's end of life. Thank you.

Although Mum only had eight weeks in her new home, she was happy, safe and her family could visit when they wanted to. Thank you again, to all the staff at Quarry House, for your care, empathy and kindness throughout Mum's time with you.

A huge thank you to all the caring staff for the care and support you gave my husband and family. The team made this challenging and sad time much more bearable knowing he was always cared for and in safe hands with the team was comfort. The staff are amazing and always made us feel welcome whenever we visited. As a family, we can not thank them enough.

A caring, well run and nurturing environment. Stimulating activity programme and good involvement of relatives. It was a difficult decision to move Mum into care but Quarry House provided a safe, caring and comfortable life in her final years and fully justified its choice.

Quarry House is an excellent provider of health and social care and the staff went out of their way to make sure our mother lived with dignity. The home is clean, airy and fresh. The rooms are spacious and are all en-suite, ensuring privacy. The staff were friendly, including management who were also accessible. There was a wide variety of food and lots of different activities, including trips to the countryside and the seaside. The staff were diverse, which meant they were culturally sensitive and attentive to our mother's needs. This was a home from home and we are confident that our mother got the care that she needed. The grounds are very beautiful and as a family, we were always encouraged and welcomed at Quarry House. Highly recommend.

My mum has been at Quarry House for a year and it has been a difficult year due to covid restrictions, but we have been kept up to date on things going on within the home. Mum seems very happy and kept clean and looking well, each time I visit. The staff are very friendly and helpful. The receptionist is brilliant.

My mum lived in Quarry House for 9 months before she passed in February. In later years my mum had dementia, not terrible I must say, but enough to change her personality, which could be trying for all concerned. She was demanding and would often ask for a cup of tea every five minutes, then just drink an inch from the top. She certainly did not want to leave her house and go into a care home, but following a fall and her being immobile, everything changed. Mum's sense of humour was often brought out by the staff who she loved, they treated mum with dignity and respect, wrapped up with a lot of fun and laughter. I often spoke to the staff who had good words about their employers, they enjoyed their work and it seems their employers were good to them. A good combination I feel. I don’t have enough words to thank each and every one of them for their help and support. Together they ran an amazing care home which I have recommended on many occasions. I will miss seeing them.

I cannot express how grateful I am to Quarry House Care Home, after my mum had a series of strokes. Every element of staff, from nurses to carers, cleaners and admin were so caring and respectful to both Mum and myself. Mum was on the meadow floor for five months, where they offered activities relevant to her and obliged her every need. Each and every staff member always had a smile and a gentle word for her whenever they ‘popped in’. As a stressed-out daughter of a very unwell resident, I was given support from the beginning. The home was always clean, fresh (no institutional smells at all) and looked tidy. I’m grateful for that. Thank you.

I consider myself very fortunate to be at Quarry House. I have a nice room overlooking the garden. The staff are very helpful and pleasant. The food is good and fairly varied. The activities are excellent and hopefully, when we have learnt to live with this pandemic, life will be better.

Dad was originally placed at Quarry House for a dementia pathway 3 assessment. This was his second assessment, the first being at another care home in Bristol. The assessment period lasted a number of weeks, during which time, we visited as much as we were able during the Covid restrictions. From day one, we were impressed with everything about Quarry House. Every member of staff we came into contact with were so friendly and helpful and you could tell that it was a well-run home. Dad has now been there for 10 months. We were lucky that he was able to remain there, following the assessment period. We are very pleased with the way he is looked after and are always contacted, should he have a fall, or if he is unwell. The home has very good facilities and is always clean. They have a wide range of activities and our initial view of the staff, has been confirmed, as everyone treats Dad as part of a large family. We know he is being well looked after and couldn't wish for a better place for him.

My auntie needed to move into Quarry House due to her Dementia needs increasing. The transition from her own house to care has been bumpy but the staff at Quarry House have been exceptional, managing the challenges this has brought for her and her Dementia behaviours. At every point, we have been informed and any questions or concerns have been answered promptly. The trained and untrained staff, including the receptionists, have been professional, accommodating and caring making the transition for the family an easier ride too. I would highly recommend Quarry House.

My mum has vascular dementia. I just want to hug her and kiss her. She is unaware of my presence. I can't go to see my mum very much and that hurts, as I don't drive. I miss mum very much - so much it hurts. She's my world. Plus I have health problems. This home is absolutely amazing. The care they provide for my mother is excellent. They're very caring and kind. I would recommend this home to anyone. It's 1st class.

Mum has been at Quarry House (Adelaide wing) since it opened. She has vascular dementia and unfortunately, she cannot make conversation or acknowledge that we are with her when we visit which is heartbreaking during the covid pandemic, as all we could do really is sit and hold her hand and watch TV together, which now obviously we are unable to do, so visits are terribly difficult not being able to hug mum but we are so so very grateful to all the wonderful staff who do such a fantastic job there. I cannot praise them highly enough. They give relatives peace of mind to know that they are being well cared for. They make visiting as comfortable as possible during this difficult time, I would like to name people individually but there are so many behind the scenes that I have not met - the entertainment and food are fantastic and all homemade, it is always clean and tidy and most importantly, homely - they are angels. Thank you all so very much - keep safe.
