Review from Gina K (Daughter of Resident) published on 12 December 2018 Submitted via Postal Card•
Overall Experience
As mum has only recently arrived at Southlands, our experience is limited to a week of staying here. However, apart from a minor accident which could have been prevented, the response and care has been very good.
The peace of mind knowing she has assisted care as required is good value for money.

Review from P C (Son of Resident) published on 29 November 2018 Submitted via Postal Card•
Overall Experience
My mother, aged 100+, went to stay in Southlands for 10 nights whilst her bathroom was replaced in her independent living flat. We didn't realise that respite care was available until we popped in. Despite our lack of appointment, we were welcomed and shown the accommodation. When my mother was having a good day we took her again unannounced. Our experience was exactly the same. Great lengths were gone to welcome, integrate and to allow my mother her independence. Help was always on hand when needed. All of the staff introduced themselves to her and popped their heads in to make sure that she was well and happy. We can not praise Southlands enough. It was perfect for my mother's needs.

Review from Julie S (Daughter of Resident) published on 26 September 2018 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
Overall Southlands is a very good facility offering a high standard of care support to its residents. My father has lived there for over year now and any problems we have raised have quickly been resolved. They offer a varied daily menu to choose from, the food is usually very good. The apartments are cleaned weekly and there is a high standard of housekeeping throughout. To the outside there are wonderfully maintained gardens with an array of flowers, plants and shrubs.
One needs a good level of income in order to live there and sufficient capital to buy an apartment. As with all care facilities, there is a significant cost.
