TESTIMONIALS
My dearest mum went into Carleen Care Home in 2019 with dementia. The nurses carers and cleaners always made my mum feel like it was her home and family. I as a son was very close to my mum and felt comfortable with the loving care she received, I cannot recommend Carleen enough and a big big thank you. Mum passed away in January 2024.
My mum was discharged from hospital into a care home which my brother and I deemed unsuitable and therefore we decided to move her. We visited many care homes but were immediately impressed by the friendliness and professionalism of the staff at Carleen. There are care homes with more extensive and modern facilities but with my mum having severe dementia the main priority was to get her into the care of staff who really cared and this is what Carleen delivered.
Being a nursing home it really helped to have medical staff who were fully alert to my mother’s needs, able to liaise effectively with the GP/hospital and accompany her to appointments. Carleen staff were always quick to keep us informed of any issue or potential issue. All staff regardless of role or rank were always very welcoming of visitors.
My brother and I are very grateful that Carleen made my mum’s last 15 months so peaceful and comfortable. The quality of the staff alone gives me no hesitation in recommending Carleen.
My wife moved into the home in March 2021. She is well settled and feels like it’s her home, she is very happy and has built some great friendships within the home with staff and service users. The staff are very attentive and her needs are very well attended to.
As her husband, I’m kept well informed of any changes or needs, the communication from care staff and nurses is outstanding. There are more expensive homes in and around the area but the level of care and attention is not there.
The home holds events where all the families and friends can attend. Carleen’s mission statement is a true reflection of the care my wife receives.
