Review from Walter A (Son of Resident) published on 10 April 2018

Overall Experience

My mother became a resident of Villa Scalabrini (VS) in Nov 2017 following diagnosis of an incurable brain tumour. From day 1, mum was made to feel welcomed and treated with respect. At all times, the care mum received was outstanding, never more so than in the last month when she became very frail

and unable to do anything independently. Nothing was too much trouble for the staff and she was cared for in a way which enabled her to maintain her dignity until the very end. We consider ourselves blessed that VS had space for mum when she needed it and that she was able to spend her final months in an environment where she was safe, comfortable and cared for with love.

Overall Experience

My mother has been a resident for 3 years, her care has always been excellent.
The staff are very caring and always make sure mum is well dressed and well kept.
They arrange birthday parties and ensure mum attends the daily activities including mass.
The home meets all my mother's needs of daily

living and they are always polite, pleasant and welcoming to visitors/relatives.

Overall Experience

After realising the difficulties of caring at home my father went to The Scalabrini where we immediately saw a difference in him.
The level of care was incredible.
It was so personal as though tailored for him.
He loved his personalised room but most of all the interaction with the carers.
Nothing

was too much and especially the way difficulties were handled.
Also the interaction with the family.
We were astounded. Five stars. Priceless.

Overall Experience

I am so glad we transferred my mother to this home and wish we had done it sooner, She had been in 2 care homes prior to coming to Villa Scalabrini in November 2017. The care, staff, atmosphere are second to none. Not only am I happy with the way my mother has settled in and is being looked after, it

provides peace of mind for the family to know she is in a healthy, nurturing environment. Keep up the good work!

Overall Experience

Mum is finally happy after two years of being miserable and very depressed. The staff are very friendly, caring, attentive and affectionate - just what mum needed. Wish I had taken her there sooner! My husband was so pleased to see her happy, smiling and having fun again.

Overall Experience

My mother sadly passed away in November having been at Villa Scalabrini for the last 3 years. She was wonderfully looked after by the staff there. They were extremely kind and caring, and incredibly patient with her, particularly given she suffered from Alzheimer's. We are very grateful to all the staff

and management there for having made her last few years as pleasant as they could be.

Overall Experience

Mum was very happy here. She told us that they were all very kind. The food was excellent, cleanliness excellent. It was like belonging to a large family.
Mum passed away in September. They could not have been kinder. She was in hospital for a few days before she died and management went to see her.

Mums passing has been so much easier knowing that she was happy in the home.

Review from Vincent (Son of Resident) published on 17 March 2017
Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

From February 2009 until November 2016 my Mother always received the care she needed. Carers spend much time interacting with residents. Group activities help generate a more stimulating environment. Considerable resources were invested in upgrading the internal and external environment, especially

for residents with dementia. The home was always clean. Visitors are always welcome, subject to safety and security. Family members are encouraged to raise any concerns and suggestions with the home’s management.

There was an ongoing programme of staff development, including dementia care. Throughout Mother’s stay the caring attitude of staff was impressive. The home has a low staff turnover rate and many staff were present during Mother’s stay.
During her final days, Mother was treated with the utmost sensitivity. The staff showed care, respect and compassion which helped family members achieve closure.

Reply from Gentil Goncalves, Assistant Director at Villa Scalabrini

It's very encouraging to know that people such as relatives and friends of our service users appreciate the work we do. This boosts our morale and propels us to do even better.
Thank you

Overall Experience

My nonna has been at Villa Scalabrini for a very long time now, and in all the years we have found them to be caring and compassionate towards her and the other tenants we have seen. They have taken excellent care of my nonna and do such a wonderful job of looking after her. I would highly recommend

Villa Scalabrini!
