Thank you for your comments.
We are sorry that we had to give you notice to take your mum from our Care Home. We did so in your mum’s best interests because she needed a Nursing Home. Although we gave one month’s notice we continued to care for her for 4 months until a vacancy arose in the Nursing home of your choice.
Most of your family’s visits were around meal times; at which times Residents’ activities are not carried out. All of our residents who currently sit in the conservatory are mobile and able.
When a resident’s abilities deteriorate, as was the case for your mum, 2 staff are required to toilet, until a suitable Nursing Home can be found for them; the staff levels in the main lounge can momentarily be lower during that short time.
Our staff are very caring. We do not employ agency staff but go to great lengths to recruit dedicated carers.
