We received this outstanding review on carehome.co.uk! A massive well done to the incredible staff team ππ
"Mum moved into River Meadows after her previous care home were unable to meet her needs. From initial telephone conversation to discuss Mum's needs and subsequent visits to view we as a family felt that Mum would be moving into a kind, caring environment where staff really cared about the residents.
From day one Mum has been cared for with kindness and when Mum was presenting challenging behaviours due to her Alzheimer's, strategies have been put into place to help Mum overcome these behaviours.
Mum's general health and well-being have improved dramatically and staff are quick to notify the frailty nurse/GP should they feel Mum's medication needs to be reviewed.
Mum's room and the communal areas are extremely clean with staff constantly cleaning where and when needed.
Food is varied and appealing and Mum is enjoying the variety of meals on offer, initally she was not eating so staff were preparing a separate meal that she would eat.
All staff appear to really enjoy their jobs which benefits the residents as their positivity shines through in the care that they give"
