Albany Care Home provides a really excellent standard of care. The staff are friendly, caring and genuinely interested in all of their residents and relatives of their residents. Both of my parents had to move into care at short notice this year after a crisis. The relief at seeing them now safe and
well looked after is indescribable. The staff facilitate them being together as much as possible. The food is excellent. The activities coordinator is wonderful. Can't thank you enough for your care.

The staff at Albany, the whole team, have been really wonderful - it is a pleasure to visit, and when I leave each time I feel confident that the standard of nursing and personal care will be exemplary. The building and furnishings look very smart following the refurbishment and the standard of
catering is exceptional. A huge thank you to everyone on the staff for their compassion and dedication to the residents. I feel truly blessed to have found this place. My love to you all!

In my profession, I have visited many care homes. Albany is are of the best, if not the best! Why? Because all the aspects you list, care/support, food etc. are excellent. But best of all. carers and other visitors are always welcome and made to feel they are part of the team doing the best for each
resident. Albany is also very adaptable and flexible in adjusting to my special meals for hospital investigation at short notice.

I've visited my friend in the Albany twice since she moved in on Tuesday 27th May. Her room is large and light with a lovely view. Her room is large and light with a lovely view. It is well equipped with modern furniture. The staff were very welcoming and friendly. The first visit was in the morning
and we were both offered coffee. Yesterday afternoon we were both offered a cup of tea and a lovely piece of cake. My friend is adapting well to her new surroundings and speaks well of the care she is receiving.

My first visit to this lovely home. I was very impressed. We went for a relatives meeting and sat in the dining room. The other relatives we met all helped at the home, one way or another. The tables were laid like an expensive restaurant. The home is being decorated and is light and bright..
The staff are warm, friendly and caring, even to visitors, and striving to be better. Some residents were watching the tv in the lounge. My sister-in-law was comfortable in her room.

My mother has been a resident at the Albany for over 3 years now and the care she has received since she has been there has always been excellent. The care staff are all brilliant with the residents and I feel they all do a fantastic job there. All the staff there are very friendly and welcoming and
I think a sign of how good the care home is, is the fact that the majority of the staff are the same as when my mum first went in there. The activities at the care home are always very good and I have taken part in quite a few things there with my mum. The activities organisers are both very bubbly and do a great job there, organising some great things for the residents.
The food at the care home is always very good and prepared by an excellent and friendly chef and his team.

All of the staff were incredibly kind and considerate. Nothing was too much trouble and Mum enjoyed the activities and fireworks on New Year's Eve. As a family, knowing that she was safe and happy meant we could finally relax. I would wholeheartedly recommend the Albany Care Home. In comparison to
others I have visited, this is five-star. Thank you to the manager, carers, receptionists and cooks, you are a great team.

My mum loves it in the Albany Care Home and loves the carers, staff and managers. Last year she said she'd had the best Christmas in years and birthday. She was made such a fuss of, it really was/is fantastic. The best thing for me is knowing she is well cared for and I have peace of mind that she
isn't in pain or suffering. Thank you to everyone there, you're the best.

My dad very quickly felt safe and comfortable here at the Albany Care Home. He is very happy with the food and says the staff are very friendly and helpful which has also been my experience. The staff and nurses always have time to talk to me and update me on Dad's care and progress. My dad's room
is always clean and tidy. I am very happy with my dad's care and treatment that he is receiving here at the Albany. I cannot fault the staff at all.
