Helpful and caring staff. Very busy and work hard. Look after me very well, coped with my mental health state well. (Sorry for that) food is great! Staff are funny, can have a laugh with them. I wouldn't choose to live in a carehome, unfortunately I have no other choice at the moment. The staff are
making my stay manageable and I thank them for that.

Old Gates is a very good place and they look after people very well. The activity lady took us out and we had indoor and outdoor games.

The experience has been excellent, due to being in hospital then transferred here to Holly House, through the staff and seniors' support and help. I have some more independence again and they helped me get back on my feet again healthwise. Staff really friendly and helpful. Staff really easy going
and no pressure, very patient. Going to really miss it here, going to be a wrench leaving as I have made a lot of friends with staff and service users.

I arrived, having gone through a horrendous period in my life I was met with a loving and caring set of staff. This has given me the confidence to move forward with hope for the future. This was reinforced with continued support, kindness and affection from management and staff. I was treated like
royalty. This is indicated by the plus (+) sign on the form below. How come I got so lucky! Cheers.

From the moment she arrived, the staff were so friendly and supportive both of Mum and family. Mum also seems happier and cleaner than the previous place, so very happy.

The care home has been very good to Mum; they treat her with dignity. I have no problems with them at all, plus she is still eating and drinking with their help.

I feel safe living here, which to me, is very important. I'm being introduced to things and activities etc, that I would never normally do or consider, and find myself enjoying them and asking about the next event. Staff are really helping me to improve my confidence and get around inside and
outside of the home. I'm beginning to appreciate more the gardens here, and it's really starting to feel like home now.

I am pleased with the way the staff are attentive to anybody's needs, and it is a very pleasant atmosphere - always seems clean.

All staff are brilliant, so kind and caring. Good with Mum and me. I like to treat them all now and then. Please just keep on doing what you're doing. Mum had a massive stroke and has been in Old Gates Care Home for five years through the care she is still with me. Thanks.

From the first day here I have been very happy with the management, carers, reception and the ladies in the kitchen. The food is good with lots of choices and all the carers are lovely with my husband. They will do anything he asks for with a smile. They have special mattresses for his comfort which
is good and he is comfortable being here and likes it very much. We are very lucky to have been able to be here as it was our first choice and everything has been great.

My nanna is in the Holly unit. She is now 99 years old and has always been very active apart from now she is bed bound. The carers and all staff at reception etc have gone above and beyond so my Nan can keep some dignity. Nan is at end of life - the carers have explained what is happening and
answered all questions appropriately. They are amazing humans - don't get enough recognition. Thank you to all involved.

Since my mum has been at Old Gates, we have been amazed at her improvement. This is down to the care, attention and professionalism of every member of staff. From our first enquiry to the present day, everyone has been incredibly helpful and fully supportive of Mum and her family.
