On visiting my aunt at night l found the Red House difficult to find as there are no signs and no lighting to the forefront of the driveway, and after entering the drive into the house, I found it awkward to park. Could do with the grass area removed and making it a decent parking area. No lights at
the front door, although there is a large light above the door! We were then told to make our way to the side of the house leading down the left side through a locked door with a combination lock, again no lighting to which l had to provide a torch. Once through the gate we made our way toward the small conservatory area, again no proper outside lighting, only solar-powered lights on the floor, half of which were not working! Very, very poor indeed. Seems to me the whole lighting or lack of it needs looking at ASAP. This is just a small part of the health and safety issues that need looking at. That's without bringing the slabbed pathway into it, it's an accident area in waiting! Appalling!

Reply from Connah Clewlow, Manager at Red House

I am sorry to hear about your concerns regarding the outdoor facilities at The Red House. You will have noted that the home does have outdoor lighting installed, which follows the entirety of the homes' outdoor paths, but unfortunately this recently malfunctioned and although the repairs have been booked in, owing to Covid delays this has not yet been completed. As a temporary measure, we installed solar lighting which our other visits have found to be more than adequate.

Other than your journey from the driveway to our visiting booth, you have not provided any further information about the home and the excellent care we strive to provide. It's a shame that you have marked down many other important aspects of our service, without experiencing them properly. We would appreciate if you could make contact with us directly to outline your concerns, so that we may look into this and resolve them immediately. We are always looking to improve our service so all feedback is welcome.

My husband has been in this care home for 15 months now, he is treated very well with respect and dignity. The staff are cheerful and helpful. If I need to speak to management over a concern I can go to her and find her very helpful. I would have no hesitation in recommending this home.

Prior to my mother arriving at the Red House, there were some delays and complications with the local authority. The Red House management was very patient and understanding and did everything that they could to help resolve the issues. My mother has now been at the Red House for about two weeks and
she has been made to feel very welcome The staff take really good care of her and show her lots of love and affection and that is helping her to feel settled. I cannot praise the staff enough and when we visit, we are made to feel very welcome too.

Reply from Virginia Bowen, Managing Director at Red House

My mother has been a resident for nearly 3 years now and is very settled at Red House. She enjoys the food, the outings she goes on, the activities and the incoming entertainment visitors. Her health has been well monitored and, although her dementia has increased over the years, I know she appreciates
the care with humour that she receives from the staff. The manager and staff have shown all of us nothing but kindness; any request is promptly and efficiently dealt with.

My wife has only been in the home for 5 weeks. My first impression was a little disappointing, the entrance was looking tired and in need of decoration. This, however, is made up for by the wonderful care provided. The carers all seem calm and helpful, the food is of a good standard and plenty of it.
Her room is excellent with views over the garden which see loves. I spoke recently with the manager regarding my wife's progress and she produced a care plan that explained all the needs she required and her care history since she had been there. They have got to know her so well I could have written it myself.
One thing that would be very helpful is a sign outside with the home name on it!

Carers do an excellent job at Red House. My mother has been a resident since last December and we have no complaints whatsoever. Management is very good and my mother's needs have been fully met. The care and welfare of the residents are their main priorities.

The staff and management are excellent and provide a superb caring service to the residents and family alike. They go above and beyond to care for the residents. I am very impressed with the support offered to a number of clients for whom I am the appointee and manage their finances.

They provide a good environment and safe care for elderly residents with dementia and we have been very pleased with the care given to my mother. There does not seem to be a lot of activities - but we realise that she may not recall everything and so we may be misjudging this.
Overall - very satisfied.
Thank you.

Very caring staff throughout the home; good personal care to residents, care is clearly based upon each residents particular needs. Staff are always cheerful and welcoming, home is clean and homely.
Food needs catered for individually, would recommend the home.

I have nothing but praise for the Red House and it's staff. Putting my mother into care was a difficult decision, but was the right thing to do. The staff are lovely and my mother is clearly happy and well looked after. The staff are courteous and friendly, and willing to answer any questions. The atmosphere
is good and feels well managed. I'm glad that we chose this home.
