Overall Experience

My experience has been so positive every time I have visited my dad in the home. The care has been exemplary and nothing is too much trouble. All staff are wonderful. I love that all activities pursued are put on social media as I live in Morecambe and I can see what Dad is up to and see him smiling

happy face.

Reply from Amy Batchelor, Customer Relations Manager at Sid Bailey

Thank you for your wonderful review, I am so pleased your dad has settled well and you are pleased with the care Dad receives. Thank you.

Overall Experience

Since September, my uncle has been resident at Montagu Hall Care Home. The care and attention he has received in the time he has been there has been magnificent. He was not in a good place when he went in but he is now so much improved, which is all down to the skill and care from the staff that he

has received. Thanks for all the wonderful work.

Reply from Julie Afsar, Care Home Manager at Montagu Hall

Thank you for completing a review of the home. Your uncle is a character and it's been lovely to see him settle and become part of the Montagu Family. He makes the staff smile and loves to chat with them. I will ensure that all of your comments are passed on to the Team.

Overall Experience

My father felt very well care for. All staff are caring, happy and friendly. He was treated with dignity. Nice rooms, loved the 3/4 double bed. I felt my father was safe at all times. There is a fantastic selection of activities for residents. The staff put my worries and concerns at bay. I felt I mattered

too. The touches such as having a glass of wine with lunch were fantastic. My dad won't be going anywhere else for respite.

Reply from Julie Afsar, Care Home Manager at Montagu Hall

Thank you for taking the time to complete a review for the home. We appreciate all your comments. It was lovely to read that your Father felt cared for and also that you felt that he was safe. All of the staff appreciate the comments made and I will ensure that I pass yours on to all of the staff. Families are also included into the Montagu Hall Care Home Family. We look forward to seeing you all if and when your Father comes back to visit.

Overall Experience

My mum has been at Sid Bailey since May 24. She has dementia and has recently had a stroke which has meant that she now needs much more care than before. The home has been amazing at attending to all her needs. Nothing is too much trouble and my concerns are always answered. Her room is beautiful, the

food is lovely and I couldn't wish for Mum to be in a better place. Mum is happy there. I would highly recommend it.

Overall Experience

During every visit, all the management and staff make time to interact with me. They are very friendly, clearly well-trained and my mother is treated sensitively and professionally. The atmosphere throughout the care home is calm and very designed. Food is excellent externally, the grounds are well

tended and there is plenty of parking. Overall, I could not ask for more.

Reply from Julie Afsar, Care Home Manager at Montagu Hall

Thankyou for taking the time to complete a review for the home. I will ensure that I pass on your comments to all of the staff Team. Our Residents, Families and friends are important to us all and we aim to ensure that everyone is welcomed and treated with Dignity and Respect.

Overall Experience

We visited a number of care homes in the area and found that Montague Hall care home stood above the rest by a long way.
Mum went on several occasions for respite care and looked forward to going back. She said it was like going on holiday.
The staff show how much they care for the clients time and

time again. They made such a fuss of Mum on her 90th Birthday.
Mum moved in on a full-time basis and is so pleased.
Highly recommend, please go and have a look for yourself.

Thank you for you kind comments, being in the company of your mother is a pleasure every day.

Very welcoming place. Clean, bright and cheerful. Happy and helpful staff. My friend's room is lovely if a little bit impersonal. She hasn't been there long so that could change as she settles in more. The food looked appetising, menu was displayed for everyone to see.

Unfortunately, my experience with this Care home when it comes to looking after residents with dementia, they have all the talk but do not actually know how to treat challenging behaviour. It's a shame because the home is lovely.

Reply from Amy Batchelor, Customer Relations Manager at Sid Bailey

As a home, we pride ourselves on the genuine care and compassion our residents receive. All of our team receive training relevant to the demographic of the residents we provide care for and in keeping with our core values. This is evident from other reviews and compliments received at the home. I am sorry on this occasion you feel unhappy, our manager's door is always open if you would like to discuss your concerns further. Thank you

Overall Experience

I went to see a resident with a friend and we were welcomed and knew where to go and find our friend. Once with her, we were impressed with the loveliness of the care home staff who were smiling, helpful and kind to our friend. We would have made a cuppa but a nurse there made us 3 one and biscuits.

Our friend is adjusting of course and hopefully, she will settle and join in with activities and garden and go for a walk in nice weather. We left feeling reassured she was in a fabulous environment in a lovely room.

You only get one chance to make a good impression and it was my first visit and I was really impressed. Receptionist, helpful and friendly. The home is beautiful. I visited all nursing homes in our area and this is the first class but unfortunately, some people will not be able to afford the experience.

My stepmother has been a resident for the last 3 months and has settled in very well and we as a family are happy that she is safe, well cared for and content in her surroundings. The staff are always popping in when I visit. Offer drinks and chat to her. She always comments on how nice the staff are

and she enjoys the food. We can see that she is thriving at Montagu Hall. She now has started to join in the activities with other residents and the social media photos are good.

Reply from Julie Afsar, Care Home Manager at Montagu Hall

Thank you for completing a review of the home. We try to ensure that all photos are uploaded so that families can see all the home's activities. It is lovely to see your relative start to take part in the activities at the home. I will ensure that I pass your words on to all of the staff team.

My relative transferred to Montagu Hall from a previous care home. The care she has received from this care home is second to none. The home is beautiful, comfortable and well-maintained. All the staff are kind caring and readily accessible. There is a lovely friendly atmosphere in the home with lots

of interaction between staff and residents. Visitors are welcomed in a warm friendly manner. Rooms are excellent, bright and comfy. Menu superb. Highly recommend this care home. I feel very confident leaving my relative in the care of Montagu Hall. Thank you to everyone involved in my relative's care. Call in and have a cuppa and look around. You won't be disappointed.

Reply from Julie Afsar, Care Home Manager at Montagu Hall

Thank you for taking the time to complete a review of Montagu Hall. It means a lot to all staff at the home when a positive review like this is seen by them. All of the team works hard to ensure that every resident is supported to live their life in a person-centred way. Choosing what they want to do and when they want to do it and how the staff can support them, without taking away their independence.

The Staff are all friendly and helpful. The home is always very clean. My relative is happy and well looked after. The room is well equipped with a nice view of the garden. I like the photos and updates of activities on social media.

Reply from Julie Afsar, Care Home Manager at Montagu Hall

Thank you for taking the time to complete a review for the home. Ensuring that our Residents are happy and are encouraged to take part in the home's activities is paramount to us. This is so they have the choice to take part, ensuring that person-centred care is maintained at the home. Social media is important, as this continues to update Residents' family and friends who are not able to visit the home as often as they may like.

Everyone is helpful and thoughtful with my mum and her family.
Rooms are of a hotel standard and resources support my mum's independence.
Staff work hard to engage all staff in activities provided, despite individual levels of ability.
Management have worked with our family, pre-entry of Mum to the

home and now she is a resident. Thank you.
