Staff are friendly and kind, the home is light and airy, well laid out and with nice furnishings. Food is very good with great variety, the food is shown to the residents so they can select, rather than picking from a list. Nice cakes in the afternoon with tea.

Entertainment previously lacking but much improved now. Will hopefully get even better, with more trips out etc.

The building may be brand new, but the team all know each other of old and this shows in the atmosphere.

Since new manager took over early June 2017 St Ives House my overall marking for this home has gone from a 05 to + 08. My husband has been an inpatient since February 2017. In August this year until September 2017 I was out of the UK I asked the manager to keep an eye on my husbands "overall" care. On return, I found him very happy and well cared for. The manager's overall awareness is "spot on" and clever. 9/10
Beautiful home very well managed and run. The staff couldn't be more helpful, caring and empathetic. Food excellent and well balanced.

My mother, who suffers from mild Alzheimers, spent a week of respite at St Ives House recently. She is normally cared for in her own home by myself and my siblings. This was her first stay in a care home. The staff were very friendly and caring and she was given a bright room, as I had requested. She enjoyed her meals and slept well. There were only a couple of negative things concerning her stay. Other wise we were delighted that our Mum enjoyed her stay and even joined in with the activities that were organised for the residents. We feel she benefited from the stimulation of being with caring staff in a lovely setting. The home is spacious and light indoors, with views of the beautiful grounds and has a lovely atmosphere. Mum was able to access her large en suite shower room and on returning home she has said several times, "That was a lovely place."
My mother has Alzheimers and needed full-time care. She moved into St Ives at the end of March. It is a beautiful care home, very well thought out and planned. The courtyard is a triumph, as is the bistro! We have had quite a few wonderful lunches with my mother. The staff are wonderful, so very...
To my knowledge, not once has she asked to return to her home of over 55 years.
Excellent. Very happy with all the meals. The bedroom facilities are excellent.

I’m Emma and I’m the very proud manager of St Ives House. I have worked with Care South for over 20 years, managing a number of their care homes in Dorset. My earliest memories of wanting to be a carer come from my childhood; Mum was a carer and it was great meeting her colleagues and being there with the residents.
I believe in a loving, caring environment for our residents; there is nothing better than spending my days with them and hearing about their life experiences, they constantly amaze me. I love my job because no two days are the same at St Ives House.
