We are most grateful for the wonderful care our friend received during the seven years she was at The Cumberland Care Home. When she first arrived there she had numerous care needs. These were met with compassion and understanding. As her needs changed so did the care. The staff were always friendly,
welcoming and supportive. We are thankful for all our friend received.

Reply from Debi OSullivan, Operations Manager at The Cumberland

Thank you so much for taking the time to write this positive review. We are delighted that you were happy with the care your friend received and hope she is settled in her new home.

I have found all the staff to be very kind and welcoming. My mother has settled in well, despite being very anti-care home in the past. No one wants to put a parent in a home, but as it may be the safest option, the excellent care at The Cumberland is to be commended.

My husband went to stay at The Cumberland 5 weeks ago. I can see him whenever I like (within reason). My husband has Alzheimer's and is fully incontinent, he is so well taken care of day and night, especially night. That is when his sleep pattern has changed, he's up and down all the time and poos himself
and his bed, but the staff (night staff) are on it. There is a sensor on his bed so they know when he gets up and they wash and change him as often as he needs to be changed. Very happy with The Cumberland. I feel happy that my husband is safe in their hands and well taken care of.

The care that my mum receives at St Brelades is very good.
I obviously can only comment on what I see and hear when I am at the care home visiting Mum.
The staff all seem lovely and are very friendly. They often pop into Mum's room when I am there and have a chat with Mum and myself.
Since Mum
has been at the care home, which is a couple of years, she seems better in herself than before she went in there. The staff seem very caring, and nothing is too much bother for them.
Recently, I have seen a lot of work being carried out at the home, which is good, as it was looking a bit unloved after Covid times.

The staff at St Brelades are caring and helpful. My mum is always clean and tidy, her hair done, her nails done. On the odd occasion, she is in her slippers and pyjamas because she does not want to get dressed, they are always very apologetic and explain the reasons why she is not dressed for visitors.
The staff are always happy to make time to discuss any questions or concerns I have regarding my mum's health or care. The staff are always keeping the ladies entertained with crafts, music, film afternoons, memory tasks and seasonal fun.

I have visited on two occasions and have been very impressed. The staff are friendly and helpful, always resident-focused. The atmosphere is clean, yet homely. Visitors are welcomed, served refreshments etc. Having worked in a number of care settings I am impressed by this one. Residents appear calm
and settled and enjoy a variety of activities.

My mother recently passed away at St Brelades aged 98 after five years of wonderful care. She was very happy there, as is her sister who is still there. The staff are always kind and gentle and welcoming to visitors at all times. The end of life care she received was so much better than if she’d passed
away in hospital. A big thank you to all the staff who worked especially hard during COVID to keep everyone safe. My mother couldn’t have been in a better place.

Reply from Debi O'Sullivan, Operations Manager at St Brelades

Thank you for writing such a lovely review. We appreciate your kind comments especially at this difficult time. We miss your mother and have fond memories of the times we shared with her and will continue to speak of her fondly especially with her beloved sister. I will pass your kind comments on to the staff.

St Brelades

from Rowena E (Daughter of Resident) published on 24 June 2022

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

My mother was at St Brelades for just over four years. She entered under different management, and I worried greatly when there was a change of management about 18 months into her time there, but they retained crucial/long-standing staff. (Some staff members have been there 14+ years, form strong bonds
with the residents and are passionate about making a difference to those in their care).
At the end of my mother's life, I visited the home at obscure times - into the evening and over staff shift changes. My mother's room was fairly central to the home (ground floor), but the staff would not have known I was there. I heard only kindness spoken to the residents, some of whom could be quite challenging.
My mother was not the easiest person, but she was treated with compassion and respect throughout. At the end of her life, it was very clear that she had been looked after by staff who knew her; knew her likes and dislikes, and had built a positive relationship with her; all of which is essential.

Reply from Debi O'Sullivan, Director at St Brelades

Thank you so much for writing this review; we do appreciate it. We are very touched by your kind comments about the care we provided your mother, who is greatly missed and remembered with much fondness by the entire team. Thank you for trusting us with the care of your mother; it was a privilege to be of service and to know you as a family.

The Cumberland is a care home for ladies with dementia and has been home to mum for the last 10 years. The Cumberland is always clean and the staff are very welcoming and extremely good caregivers to all residents nothing is too much trouble and mum is cared for in a kind and supportive way at all times.
I would not hesitate in recommending this care home.

An "all ladies" home is unusual to find (in my opinion) but it suits Mum so well. The Cumberland isn't huge but that just means much more personal attention for the ladies. The staff are so friendly to me and helpful, and understanding of my feelings as Mum's condition declines. They are so caring with
the ladies - it does come across as a big family. There are lots of activities organised and I am so happy I chose The Cumberland for Mum.

Thank you for taking the time to write this review. We are delighted to hear you feel the Cumberland is such a perfect choice for your mum. We do like to think of ourselves as one big family so it is especially heartwarming that you feel we come across in this way. It is an honour to care for your mum and to work in partnership with you.

From the first day until now, Mum has been cared for with kindness and dignity (I would say even love). Nothing seems to be too much trouble and everything is done with a smile. The management and staff have done an amazing job during the pandemic and there has not been a single case of COVID in the
home, staff, or residents. I would not hesitate to recommend The Cumberland to any family looking for a safe and caring home for their relative.
