“People continued to receive safe care and support. People and their relatives told us they felt the home was a safe place to live and they felt safe with the staff that supported them. Comments included, "Oh yes I definitely feel safe. The staff are kind people and they have a chat with you"”
“This is an outstanding care home. From the moment we checked my brother into Elmstead sixteen months ago, he became a changed man. He had been listless and depressed, but the very dedicated and sympathetic staff soon helped give him a new purpose and spirit. We were impressed not only with the standard of personal care he was given but also with the standard of cleanliness, food, and activities. And remarkably, Elmstead has remained Covid-free as the pandemic raged around them - a tribute to the very high standards this home maintains. Communication, too, has been first class.”
Brother of resident, 13 July 2021, carehome.co.uk
“At a very stressful time, and after extensive searches, we, as a family, could not be more grateful to the manager and staff at Elmstead for giving us the reassurance that my husband is in a loving home. It's perfect!”
Wife of resident, 30 June 2021, carehome.co.uk
“My mother has only been at Elmstead for a short time, but the difference this has made to her has been amazing. Mum is settling in far quicker than I imagined and is very happy. She is enthusiastically joining in the many activities on offer and is beginning to build relationships with the wonderful team. I cannot recommend Elmstead highly enough and can only thank them for the kindness, care and support they have shown.”
Daughter of resident, 8 June 2021, carehome.co.uk
