My Dad enjoys his time at daycare, excellent activities to keep the mind active. Lunch and afternoon tea very good and great to know my Dad has had a hot meal during the day. All staff are excellent, very caring.

Overall Experience
How can I comment on something that is as near to perfection as you can get. (see all boxes ticked apart from one which was marked 'good').

The standard of the meals must receive mention - they are prepared to a very high and served standard with each client requirements attended to without question.

Review from Lynn M (Daughter of Resident) published on 31 January 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My mother looks forward to her visits to Birdston Day Care. Every single member of staff is friendly and helpful. Their kind and enthusiastic approach encourages my mother to join in the many excellent and varied activities during the day.
The centre itself is always warm with a cosy cheerful atmosphere. There is a high standard of cleanliness and the meals are well suited to elderly people.

I can relax when my mother is in Birdston Day Care as I know I am leaving her in safe caring hands.

Overall Experience

I feel that Birdston provide an excellent day care service. My mother uses this service twice each week and she looks forward to meeting up with ladies that she has met there. I have found the staff to be very pleasant and helpful. The 2 days that my mum attends allows me a break as well due to my mum finding it increasingly difficult to be on her own as she gets older.

Birdston Day Care is the highlight of my mother's week. The service she receives and the kindness shown to her by all staff is what makes this centre stand out above all others.

All my mother's needs are catered for to the highest standard and the wide variety of events and activities ensure that both mentally and physically, my Mother's wellbeing will continue to thrive in a happy and safe environment.

Overall Experience
I am completely happy with services at Birdston Day Care. Although mum can't really tell us herself what she'd done and how she is treated., she always goes happily, which I guess means she is happy there.

All the staff, both clerical and medical, are excellent and nothing is ever a problem to them. They always take care of mum. I get regular updates on her care. I only wish the service was freely available to all those who live alone and need it.

Review from Scott H (Son of Resident) published on 16 January 2018 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

Ever since my mother started to attend 'Birdston Day Care' she has done nothing but praise the time she spends there. The quality of the service provided is excellent. From the staff to the facilities, the activities and catering are remarkable. I live in Fife and I am pleased that my mum has a great time and the conversations I have after my mum has been to the centre is very interesting for me. We increased her days from 1/week to 3/week and I am so glad we did. I attended the recent Christmas lunch and I had a great time. Seeing first hand the care and attention everyone received was truly remarkable. Thanks.

Review from Jonathan T (Regular Volunteer) published on 16 January 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Birdston Day Care is an extremely enjoyable place to come to for care and support. Clients have the opportunity to mix with other people and there is plenty of daily activities they can take part in both in the morning and afternoon. Occasional day trips are organised from the day centre and clients are accompanied by two or three carers depending on numbers. The centre also has two voluntary workers who assist the seniors and the other care staff with the different aspects of support offered to attend clients. The centre manager and two seniors are always on duty to help any concerns.

Review from S S (Granddaughter of Resident) published on 29 August 2017 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

My grandad has recently started at Birdston and I cannot praise the staff and centre enough. It has been fabulous! The staff have made such an effort to settle my grandad and as a family have reassured us so much. I am delighted my grandad has a place here as he is already really enjoying it, especially the food. We have already added on a second day. The playlist idea is great and makes settling so much easier, hearing familiar songs definitely boosts the moral.

Overall Experience

My Dad attends a few days per week and enjoys his time there. Staff are friendly and helpful and keep me up to date with how my dad has been with his eating, drinking and how he has interacted and enjoyed his day. This allows myself and my husband to have some me time with the knowledge that Dad is safe and well looked after and that gives me complete reassurance.

My father has attended Birdston for a couple of years now. He enjoys going and always speaks warmly of his experience.

My dealings with the team at Birdston are always professional, helpful and friendly. I am confident that the care at Birdston has played an important part in my father being able to continue living in his own home over this period.

I have already recommended the centre to a friend. I appreciate the collect and drop off service and the friendly attitudes of the staff. My husband always enjoys his lunch but unfortunately isn't able to participate in many of the activities. However, he particularly enjoys days out and would appreciate more of these.

Review from Jack R (Son of Resident) published on 20 March 2017 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

This provider is very helpful and understanding. My mother has Parkinsons and Parkinsons Dementia. She likes going to this daycare centre two days a week as it is getting her out into an environment with other people so overall it's very important to us in giving more balance and social benefits to my mums week and life. There are sometimes my mother can be very tired in the mornings due to her conditions and the centre has been understanding when I take my mother there a few hours later or if she is too tired sometimes which we appreciate a lot as it's accepting her individual circumstances which are potentially challenging. When she goes there it is giving her a better quality of life and I have found the people who work there to be very tolerant and understanding regarding my mum and very helpful. Therefore this is overall a very positive experience for my mum despite her conditions.
