My Mum, Marion absolutely loves being in Abbott House. The staff are so lovely to her and very caring aswell. They always have activities on for the residents and the residents are really well cared for by the staff members. Abbott House is really clean and welcoming to every one. The atmosphere is very homely. The rooms are always spotless clean and nothing is to much for the staff to do. Mum has been in Abbott for 3 years now and wishes she had gone in there earlier. The food is excellent to and always a variety to choose from. I wish all care homes were like Abbott House, warm friendly and the staff faultless.

Mum has been in Abbott house for 6 mths and is very settled . Staff are just lovely and most importantly there is so much going on for residents that she has a whole new social life which is great. Thank you all .

On my last visit Abbott House had a friendly atmosphere, the staff greeted me by name which is welcoming. I had prearranged a time to sit and discuss care plan and needs. This provides a family centred approach to care for my mother in law, with good communication between staff and family.

Thankyou to the very welcoming staff who are able to answer questions. Lovely garden area outside. Dad is being treated respectfully and everyone is patient with him. Food very good and staff are monitoring his welfare.

Mum has been a resident for some years now and treats it very much as her home. All staff, the manager, the office team, those in the kitchen and those providing care go out of their way to meet the foibles and preferences of the residents. The manager has brought some long-needed stability, long may it continue.

Content with services provided, staffing levels are subject to cost constraints so not ideal, the staff there do their very best and are friendly to my mother in addition to provding the services required.

Our mother has been a resident for 10 months now. On admission she was very confused, resisting any help from everyone including her children but within a very short space of time and with the care and attention shown by each and every member of staff, she has adapted very well and now joins in with a lot of things. The team are fantastic, whether they are care staff, laundry staff, kitchen staff or admin, everyone goes out of their way to make the residents feel cared for and their families and friends feel welcome.

Mum is now 101 and has been at Abbott House for more than five years. She is looked ate very well, even though she is very frail and can be a bit stubborn and difficult at times. The staff are attentive, open, friendly and conscientious and appear to work happily together under caring management.

Both my parents are now residents of Abbott House and they couldn't be happier. The care they receive is excellent and nothing is too much trouble. All the staff are very friendly and visitors are also made to feel very welcome. The home receives excellent service from a nurse practitioner at the neighbouring surgery and it is very reassuring to know that she is on hand to deal with any health concerns etc. The recently appointed activities coordinator is also an added bonus and she is already very popular with my parents. The food is excellent with plenty of choice and the kitchen staff go above and beyond to accommodate special requests.

Since my auntie moved into Abbott House in September 2023. She has been very happy at Abbott House this was the only care home she wanted to go and live at. The cares are kind and professional and helpful with her. Always clean and tidy at all times. Auntie is looked after very well. I am very pleased with the care she receives.

Since my Father-in-law has been a full-time resident I have found the care home is run to a very high standard. The rooms and other areas are kept very clean. The staff who look after the residents are first class and very polite. Also, the support staff are also very polite and go above their work to a good standard. I hear from my Father-in-law that the food is good and with 3 good meals a day. The nursing staff I find are very kind and good at what they do. I put the good running of the care home down to two very experienced managers.

The care and empathy from the staff at Abbott House have been exemplary. My Mother has had a few falls and the 'Team' have looked after her over and beyond to ensure she is comfortable. Our mother is very happy at Abbott House and has been there for quite some time.

Abbot House is warm and friendly. My mother is very happy there. It is bright, clean and residents cared for with kindness and compassion. Communication is clear from the management team and questions answered promptly. The activities for residents are varied and stimulating.

My mother is in Abbott House because she has dementia. She is very happy there and the day-to-day care is second to none. The staff are lovely and treat the residents with the respect and care that they need. I'm very happy with the care my mum has and the way she is looked after... would totally recommend it to anyone. Thank you to all concerned.

Mum moved here about a month ago, what a warm welcome she received! Professional staff, providing high-quality care in a friendly environment with stimulating activities and great facilities - and a menu to be envious of! Families and friends actively encouraged to get involved. Can't recommend highly enough!

I am POA for a male resident with dementia. The staff are universally kind in my experience and have a good rapport with the residents. His physical wants are well taken care of but there are persistent signs (lost remote controls/absence of batteries/lost teeth) of carelessness, particularly in relation to his mental well-being, which I attribute to management. He still has a lot of intelligence which deserves stimulus.
30 April 2024
I have found the staff to be caring and facilities good. My stepmother is very happy here and I feel she is safe. I do feel that there are insufficient opportunities for residents to exercise when they are able, which likely leads to further physical deterioration. However I appreciate that this may be a resource issue.
