Overall Experience

Home is good, but mother is just left in her bed. She is profoundly deaf, and registered blind, and due to being immobile cannot stand or sit up on her own. But could do with occasional change of scenery.

Reply from Ronnie Cavanagh, Digital Marketing Executive at Balmoral Care Home

Thank you, Vincent, we really appreciate your feedback! If you would like to contact the Home Manager, she would welcome the opportunity to review your mothers care plan with you. Thanks again for your review.

Overall Experience

On the whole were very pleased with mums care, but think her hands should be washed/soaked in water as her nails are filthy. Also feel the room needs painting. The staff are always friendly and answer any questions we ask. Mum seems happy most of the time which puts us at ease.

Reply from Ronnie Cavanagh, Digital Marketing Executive at Balmoral Care Home

Overall Experience

My mother was a resident here for seven months before her death. At all times, she was treated with patience and dignity. She was very happy here and the staff were always respectful and aware of her needs. They were also polite and friendly at all times to all members of all the family.

Overall Experience

The staff have been so caring and considerate towards my mum even tough she is suffering from dementia and has had quite a few challenging episodes. They have taken into consideration both her needs and her relatives.
She is now in the latter stages of her life and I could not wish for better care

from both the nursing and care staff.

Review from Anne T (Wife of Resident) published on 10 March 2017

Overall Experience

My husband has been in three care homes recently and this one has proved to be the better. First and foremost are the staff, cannot fault them at all, they are a credit to your company. I cannot praise them enough. If my husband has to permanently reside in a care home I wouldn't hesitate to use Balmoral

Care Home. Just two things that could be improved on;
1. The size of the rooms for someone with reduced mobility, it is very difficult for them to manoeuvre.
2. The food. I stayed with my husband for Xmas lunch. It was dreadful, some is Ok but could be improved on.

Overall Experience

Mum has been in Balmoral just over a year. I visit regularly and have been made to feel very welcome by all the staff that I come into contact with on Windsor. They do an amazing job, sometimes under great pressure due to not enough staff. My mum has dementia and after no longer being able to care for

her at home she went to live at Balmoral. The staff keep me up to date on how mum is and will contact me directly to update me on anything that is urgent. I class the staff on Windsor as heroes, as without their help, I dread to think where we would be.

I visit frequently on Wednesdays to take part in the activities day. Overall, view of the Balmoral Home is that of a well run, clean and friendly establishment. The key to a good home is the staff who are friendly and committed to their charges.

Overall Experience

Very caring helpful staff. My mum has been in the home since February 2016 and has settled in well. In March my mum was unwell and had to visit hospital. Staff organised an ambulance to transport my mum and I to the appointment. Recently, my mum's clothes have not been washed according to care labels

and some have shrunk. Mum is always dressed and clean when we visit. Overall very pleased with the care mum is receiving.

In relation to the food at Balmoral, we have some very exciting changes coming up which will certainly brighten up the menu - I will talk further in person about these. We’ve also just last week updated our menus to reflect preferences etc… If you have any other meals you feel would be nice on the menu then please just let me know so we can incorporate these. Thank you again for your comments.

The care home could be improved by having more staff. Sometimes the present staff have problems coping with the number of residents.

Overall Experience

I would highly recommend Balmoral Care Home, the management and staff,caring and understanding to residents and there family.
My mum had a fall in her room in January the staff responded quickly and family in formed.
A member of the staff accompanied mum in the ambulance to reasure her and give the

doctors information they needed.
Mum suffers from dementia so the well being of mum is of up most importance and Balmoral did just that.
Thank you

Overall Experience

In our experience the staff always seem to try their best in sometimes testing circumstances. The staff have changed a lot over last few months so seems to have lost some of its continuity. Questions are usually answered and overall residents seem well cared for.
