Overall Experience

My mum has been very well cared for for over 6 months now, the staff are brilliant in their care and attention to detail. Food is excellent including their birthday cakes. Mum really enjoys the company and activities too, and is much happier now.
The home is really clean and mum's personal care is

excellent too. So all in all an excellent place to live. Thank you.

Overall Experience

Rose Lawn has been home for my mum for five months now. It is an exceptional place. Knowing that Mum has first-class care 24 hours a day is priceless.
It is clear how much staff put residents' wishes and needs at the heart of what they do. Residents are consulted on a wide range of issues, from choosing

their menu and giving feedback on activities to having input into Summer and Christmas fayres.
The range of activities organised every week is amazing. From crafts, hymn singing, Pilates, musical performances, and quizzes to dance demonstrations, there's never a dull moment (but no pressure to join in if it's not your thing).
The location of Rose Lawn couldn't be better. It is on the flat and a short walk into town. My mum even gets to watch rugby matches from her room! The home is well maintained and definitely does not have a "care home" feel (or smell!) about it. The residents can even enjoy the company of a couple of pets.
Thank you to every member of the Rose Lawn staff for what you do.

Overall Experience

Unquestionably Rose Lawn is a happy home where every effort is made to ensure the well-being of residents. The staff comes across as a well-managed, united team, happy to walk the extra mile. The food is excellent in terms of both quality and quantity and activities are appropriate to the needs of the

limited number of residents able to take part.
My views are based on a recent respite stay. Should the need arise I would look to Rose Lawn again with confidence.

Overall Experience

In the time my Gran was there, she was always happy with her care and complimentary of the team. They looked after her with care and compassion. As she entered her last days, they really made things as easy for us as a family, as they possibly could. They were with her as much as possible when we weren't

able to be with her and I know that Gran will have felt loved and cared for in her last days.
After her passing, they were understanding and supportive. I was very grateful to the whole team.

Rose Lawn Care Home is a bright, clean and cheerful home. Staff, without exception, are kind, caring, and thoughtful; residents are treated with respect and nothing is too much trouble. As a visitor to my late partner, I always felt welcome and a member of staff would always be available to answer any

questions and offer me a cup of tea. The food is excellent and was much enjoyed by my late partner and myself on occasions when I stayed for lunch.

Overall Experience

My Aunt has been a resident at Rose Lawn since 2019. She has dementia and there were initial difficulties around the legal aspects of her admission and whether she had capacity etc. From day one, Rose Lawn were very supportive and guided us through these difficulties and have continued to be fantastic

ever since. They are a real family of staff and residents and they have cared for my aunt - and more recently my Mother-in-Law also - extremely well during their time in their home. They are very professional with their handling of any medical matters - quickly getting on to Doctors, District Nurses, and hospitals as and when needed. There is always something going on activities-wise. Trips to the town, the seafront and even holidays away often take place. Since my aunt was admitted to hospital recently they have kept in touch and made efforts to update me on her progress whilst I was working away. I would not hesitate to recommend Rose Lawn to anyone looking for a home for their loved one.

Overall Experience

Both my mum and my aunt live in Rose Lawn, they are very happy and settled which was a huge concern for me when they moved in especially as they didn’t move in at the same time. However it soon became apparent that the staff are genuinely very caring, nothing is too much trouble and they treat all the

residents with the greatest respect and dignity.
My mum was unwell before Christmas and the staff immediately became aware, called an ambulance and made sure they had all the necessary documents ready for the crew when they arrived. When she returned from the hospital they put in extra measures to ensure her safety and care.
I am confident that my relatives receive excellent care from very hard-working and friendly staff.

She chose to remain there after having respite care when 95.

Rose Lawn is a caring and compassionate community which makes residents and their families immediately feel 'at home'.
The home is clean, tidy, airy and bright and well-managed.
The staff are hard-working and will go above and beyond for the residents.
The food is varied and there is plenty of choice,

even for fussy eaters.
The activities for the residents are well-led, stimulating and numerous. The community events are a pleasure to attend.

Mum has been a resident in Rose Lawn since October 2022. Initially for respite but following another fall in her home she decided she wanted to move in permanently because she’d enjoyed her stay there.
All staff are amazing and deal with Mum with kindness, respect and patience. Treating her for the

individual she is and she seems very happy. Obviously, it’s a huge decision to undertake and for me personally, it’s been made so much easier knowing she’s relaxed and cared for.

We brought my brother to Rose Lawn from another care home where he was very unhappy. When he arrived at Rose Lawn in October 2023 he looked ashen grey and was weak and depressed. The excellent care that he has received at Rose Lawn has given him a new lease of life. He has put on weight, has much more

healthy colour, he is stronger and walking better. He is very content. He has received excellent medical care and attention to personal comfort. He finds the staff all cheerful, helpful and kind. I can't thank Rose Lawn enough.

My mother moved to the care home at the end of November as I had relocated to the area and wanted her to be nearer to me. There were a few teething problems at the start as she didn’t know the area but the staff there have been very nice to her and made her feel welcome. The food is good, her room is

tidy and she is kept comfortable and clean. I think she is hoping for more outside activities when the weather improves.

Overall Experience

I volunteer with activities at Rose Lawn. It is easy to see the compassion, empathy and knowledge that the whole team go about their day with. The door is always opened with a smile and a warm welcome and nothing is ever too much trouble. From the cleaner to the manager, everyone is always smiling and

appears to know the residents well. The residents appear happy and always talk about the Rose Lawn team as if they are family. I cannot praise the activity team enough for going above and beyond. This year they supported a lady to a botanic garden, which was over a 3-hour journey each way. Well done!

Unfortunately, my aunty was only in the home for a couple of months before she died. However, the care and attention given to her at that time was exemplary. Nothing was too much trouble and all carers appeared to love their job. They were angels indeed and deserve praise indeed. Also, following her

death, they made sure I was okay and if I needed any support. Fantastic!

My first visit to my uncle since he moved in. Spend two hours in his room with him so I had a fair chance to fully assess the home. What I saw was certainly more than satisfactory and an improvement on his previous home. The staff were friendly and attentive, the food looked very tasty and his room

was clean and tidy.
