our mum is in this care home. I can't believe how well she has settled. she is deaf and all the staff have gone the extra mile to communicate with her. we went to see her the 2nd day and she was sat in the lounge. something I never thought she would do so quickly. in a week she looked so much healthier. I can't thank them all enough . so if your thinking of somewhere for someone. I highly recommend this care home.

I started working here at Life Care in August 2019 as the Deputy Manager, I have several years experience in care working my way up through from care staff to management. As a complete new member of staff who is passionate about delivering good person centred care I wanted to share my knowledge with the care team and improve things alongside the fantastic registered manager. All staff have with open arms welcomed the positive changes we have put in place and braced the new management style. All staff were re interviewed for their jobs to ensure we had the right team in place to improve and deliver the best care. We do every one of those care staff, cleaners, cooks, activities, admin, maintenance, operations work together as a team to enhance the lives of our beautiful residents. We now have a fabulous activity team who have engaged well in getting to know the residents, and what they love to do , to ensure they build their activity around their needs, hobbies and likes. We have incorporated families to join us with party's and occasions to celebrate our wonderful care home and have received some outstanding feedback from all the changes within. We are working closely with the council who visit often and have had nothing but good reports back, as they can see just how hard we are all working together to ensure we sustain all our positive hard work. Our staff are embracing all the new training and feeding back positively on how they feel this has been the best training and made them feel empowered within their roles. Our owner and operations manager are supportive and there if we need them, and nothing is too much trouble. I have like i said only been here a short time, and working in care is by no means an easy job , but I can honestly say each and every staff member and resident make me smile each day, and this makes it all worth while. Life Care is a fabulous place to work and an Outstanding Care home.

I first started working at Life Care in 2012. I have always enjoyed working here. I have worked as a carer, kitchen assistant, activities and administrator. We have recently had new management take over and lots of changes and improvements have been made. Both new managers are passionate about caring and have a lot of knowledge which they are sharing with us all. The home is now looking very Dementia friendly and a lot of new training has been implemented which carers have given good feedback about. I can see that all care staff are very caring towards our residents and work well as a team. It is not an easy job being a carer but they all work hard to ensure our residents have a good quality of life. We've also recently had new activities coordinators start who have improved the atmosphere of the home and the day to day life for the residents, having different ideas of things for them to do and participate in each day. The home has also been getting families involved more, with events/parties going on and more things being planned for the future at the moment. I would not have stayed working here for so long if I did not believe Life Care is a good care home where residents are treated with dignity and respect and provided with the care which they all deserve.

I have been working at Life Care since my arrival in UK - 7 years ago. The home had ups and downs throughout those years. I can say that I have never felt this comfortable in my work place as I feel now. All the support and encouragement we all receive from management, the opportunity for personal development. All staff are hard working and experienced, all very good in their job.I am confident to say that the care we provide is good. I want to say to all residents, relatives, staff and management - thank you for the trust

Outstanding home now, since new manager and deputy been appointed, so many changes , staff supported, families feel included and listened too. Staff seem happier and happy in there job. Nothing is too much trouble May the good work continue , the CQC rating certainly does not reflect life care as it is now. I can certainly recommend anyone to place there loved one here, they are well looked after and the care is very person centred. Well done all for such a fabulous job

I haven’t worked here long but would like to say that if I felt it wasn’t improving, friendly and a care home that put residents first with all aspects of care then I wouldn’t work here. Management is 100% and this is shown within the environment and the roles of the staff. I very much encourage you to come and see for yourselves just how it has changed and look at residents faces smiling. We all work hard to provide the best for our residents wellbeing, happiness,independence and all aspects of care. I can honestly say under new management now we maintain excellent standards and will continue to do so. Well done to Maggie, Michelle and the wonderful staff!

My Aunt is currently residing at Life Care. We were very worried about placing her in a care home but her being at Life Care has put our minds at rest. All staff go above and beyond to ensure she is happy, clean and healthy. Thank-you Life Care for looking after my Aunt so well. Xxxx

We have had the pleasure to provide musical entertainment to the lovely residents of life care homes. The staff were very approachable and caring for all the residents needs. They joined in with the musical interludes and got the residents involved and alone even had a little dance aswell. On both visits everthi g was managed in a professional yet caring manner and we look forward to returning in the near future.
