Review of
Alexander House
from Nicholas M (Husband of Resident) published on 14 April 2025

Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

My wife has dementia & was somewhat lost & confused upon arrival at Alexander House, but within a couple of weeks she had settled down & was relaxed and cheerful thanks to the amazingly attentive, cheerful & friendly staff all of whom are incredibly professional at everything they do. The rooms are

comfortable, well maintained, well ventilated, well furnished, clean & hygienic and all have an emergency call system. The food is tasty, plentiful and attractively served and professionally prepared on site by a suitably qualified cook with a wide choice for everyone each day, as well as welcome snacks also being made available between meals, (including welcoming coffee & biscuits for visitors whenever they arrive). Alexander House has a fully qualified Manager, "in post", and a Senior Member of Staff on duty at all times 24/7. They have an amazing Activities Manager who ensures that no-one is ever isolated, bored or lonely. This is a Team at the top of their Game doing an amazing job.

Overall Experience

My mother-in-law was a bit unsettled when she first went to Alexander House but with the support and dedication of the carers soon started to enjoy being part of the family. Her bedroom was always clean and kept tidy and she always looked forward to her meals. There were always activities, painting,

craftwork and dominoes to keep her busy. Sometimes they would have visits from outside venues, small animals for the residents to hold or just watch which made most days entertaining and fun. It certainly made our life a lot easier knowing she was being well cared for, so thank you everyone for doing such a great job.

Freshfields
from R S (Daughter of Resident) published on 21 February 2025

Overall Experience

My dad has been lucky enough to have his care provided here for the last 12 months. The home is well led by a proactive, approachable caring manager, who delivers an extremely high standard of personalised care, treats every resident with dignity and respect, and the staff genuinely care for the residents

and their families. The activities staff deliver a wide variety of events on and off the premises and the facilities are superb. The home is kept spotlessly clean, clothes are carefully laundered, and all meals are of high quality. I am very impressed with Freshfields, and I would be happy to live there myself.

My dad had a short stay at Alexandra House after a long stay in hospital. The care team were fabulous. He really enjoyed the food during his stay. My dad wanted to go home, and the staff supported him to be independent again.
Great care great team.

Overall Experience

My dad has dementia and was so confused when he first went into Alexander House, but after 6 weeks he had settled down and seems to enjoy it. The staff are amazing with him (he can be difficult at times). The food is great and also the snacks that they are always eating. I can't thank them enough, it

makes me feel a lot better knowing he's in good hands. There's always things to do during the day, the ice cream van came the other week and also baby lambs came. The manager always has time for a chat, so a big thank you to everyone for looking after my dad.

Overall Experience

As the parents of our disabled son recovering from a bad fall we have been very impressed with the care from all the staff (from nurses to carers and cleaning staff and cooks), all were very friendly and helpful and certainly helped our son’s good recovery. The food was excellent and varied, the cleanliness

was good and the home had a very pleasant atmosphere.

Denison House Care Home

Overall Experience

Well, I've tried and tried to log in to the ombudsman to complain! I rescued my mum in law from Denison House, March 21st 2024, after months and months of neglect. Residents neglected, left to rot in a chair all day with zero stimulation or entertainment. Management unable to find my mum's contract.

My mum was a mess with an extremely sore bum. so much so she could hardly sit down. Cream never re-ordered or applied. Lost a lot of weight, fingernails long, hair a mess and hairy chin not shaven. Also, two of her valuable rings missing, rings that previously would not come off her fingers. In December 23 they put over a 4 grand backpay on us from April 23. Thank heavens for the new home. Our mum is a new woman! Happy, eating, bum healed, stimulated/entertained, hair done, nails done and chin shaved for dignity. Denison House needs shutting down, in my opinion!

Overall Experience

Mum has now been in Alexander House for 18 months, the manager and her wonderful staff are nothing short of angels on earth. Not only do they cater to the resident's needs, but also take time out of their busy schedules to help and reassure the families of those who live there. The addition of a member

of staff recently is a bonus! Mum loves the pamper sessions, the games, the crafting, the visits from the chicks and the lambs. Keep doing what you’re doing #Team - you’re doing a great job!

Just wanted to commend the staff at St Anthony's Care Home. My friend was there for a period of time before his recent passing. The staff were always friendly, courteous and caring. I couldn't think of anything they could've done better in the time leading up to his passing, so grateful for everything

they had done for him. I can only say thank you and keep up the good work.

Overall Experience

This place is awful, management lie. Meds given to suit their needs. My son was not bathed, lying in bed until 12 o'clock in a bed full of faeces and urine. Many occasions staff, 3 of them eating cake, talking very loudly in his room and totally ignoring him. There's so much to write but the one thing

I will say this place is dangerous. Reported to the council many times and about other residents, even staff have expressed how terrible this place is and how management are terrible. Avoid avoid avoid.

Overall Experience

My husband was taken to Alexander House temporarily after a fall, he struggled to walk without assistance mainly because of dementia. The facilities and staff were first class and each day there was a different activity to keep the residents active, sadly he had to leave as a permanent place became

available at another care home, I would highly recommend Alexander House to anyone looking for a care home!

My mum has been a resident at Denison House for two and a half years, and in all that time, she has received kind, caring and loving attention. Denison House has a warm, friendly and welcoming atmosphere, and the staff are always most obliging and helpful. We, as a family, are happy and grateful that

our Mum is safe and well looked after. Thank you to all the caring staff.

Overall Experience

We reluctantly made the decision that my mum was no longer able to care for my dad at home, having looked after him for 16 years since his Parkinson's diagnosis. I can only reiterate comments from previous reviews that the staff are caring, compassionate and friendly and nothing is too much trouble.

We are also warmly greeted on each occasion that we visit Dad. We think Denison House is excellent and would highly recommend this care home.

Overall Experience

My husband had been in a different care home for 18 months in another area, I managed to get him into Denison house in early April 2023 and can I say the level of care, the competence of the staff to do their job and most of all how my husbands need and dignity are managed gives me the confidence as

such it allows me to sleep at night in the knowledge he is being properly looked after which I didn’t feel before. The care home itself is perfect as my husband has a ground floor room which suits his needs and is always clean overall I am very happy with Denison's house as a whole from the lovely caring staff to the food and facilities.

Review of
Alexander House
from Martyn W (Son of Resident) published on 15 January 2024

Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

My dad initially went into Alexander House for 3 weeks of respite care whilst I was on holiday. On my return, Dad asked me if he could stay permanently as he felt much safer with 24-hour care. At home, he was very anxious about falling. This told me that in the initial 3 weeks, he was happy with the

environment there.
The staff are very friendly, they make everyone feel welcome and it is evident that the ethos is one of care and dignity. Sadly after another three weeks, my Dad fell very ill and he passed away at the home. I cannot praise the staff enough for the way they cared for him in this difficult time and also for the care and respect they showed to my family, nothing was too much trouble. Dad slipped away peacefully, he could not have been better looked after.

Overall Experience

My 95 and 89 year old parents were booked into to Alexander House for 2 weeks respite while we made alterations to their house.
My Father has very limited mobility and poor eyesight and his needs well perfectly catered for.
The staff are first class. Very professional, friendly and couldn`t do enough

to make their stay as comfortable and as safe as possible.
Visitors were welcomed and always offered tea or coffee on arrival.
I would have no hesitation recommending Alexander House as a safe and caring environment for the elderly.

Overall Experience

I intended to keep my mother at home as long as I possibly could but had to place her in a care home due to unforeseen circumstances. I can say 100% that since my mum has entered Oakhaven she has thrived. The staff are exceptional, and the level of care so good I almost feel like she has been left with

family.
My mum has great company, fantastic stimulation thanks to a brilliant entertainment programme and a lovely clean room and sitting area. The staff are attentive and really engaged with the residents. I have no hesitation to recommend Oakhaven.
