Fabulous care home - all the staff that care for our Mum are wonderful. There are lots of activities for the residents to join in with and we are kept up to date with what's happening. We are very happy with the care and attention that Mum gets.

He has been at Mills Meadow since December 2022. He really loves living there and feels very well looked after and cared for. His weeks are always full with activities, socialising and meals in the dining room. He has a lovely view from his room which is important to him as he's lived in the area all his life.

Mills Meadow and all the staff have made my mum so welcome. They have encouraged her to join in on activities, which are varied and stimulating. The food is excellent and we are more than happy with the care and attention she has there. We would also like to commend them for their excellent communication as to what is happening in all situations.

I would like to commend this home on its wonderful atmosphere and care towards residents and activities and to say how good their communication is with us as the family. It is so helpful to know that they will contact us to discuss concerns and that we can do the same.

My aunt was admitted to Mills Meadow for two weeks of respite care after needing support after a fall at home. Despite being in the Christmas/New Year period the management of Mills Meadow responded very quickly to this urgent request and was able to provide 24-hour care for these two weeks. Building a further understanding of the needs of my aunt, management organised a transfer to another care home (Hartismere Place) for further respite care closer to her own home and friends. Throughout her stay at Mills Meadow staff were very caring. understanding and helpful, and the management team was professional and efficient throughout.

At Mills Meadow, the staff are amazing and really have the resident's needs front and centre in their service delivery. The administration support has been first class. This centre deserves its outstanding CQC rating from our experience. A welcoming, warm, human-centred, resident-focused. Community with dogs welcomed and a live-in cat for residents contact.

My dad was a resident for the last 7 months and the care all the staff showed him was second to none. They looked after him so well and showed so much patience with him regarding his dementia. He was always kept very clean and smartly dressed. Nothing was too much trouble for all the staff. He was always invited to take place with the endless activities and entertainment taking place and was even taken out on day trips. The staff not only looked after my dad but made my mum very welcome on the days she visited, and also other members of our family. We cannot thank all the staff enough, they all became part of our family whilst Dad was a resident. They all work tirelessly and deserve as much credit as anyone could possibly give them.

My mother-in-law was treated with care and dignity all through the stressful moving-in period. As a former cook, she was particularly impressed with the food. The staff and management are professional and very knowledgeable of their industry.

Overall I feel the home is good however I have a sister in the dementia wing, I do realise that this is a hugely difficult job for the staff, but it appears to me on numerous occasions when I visit, that there is a definite shortage of staff especially at meal times when most residents heed help. Would it not be possible to employ more staff at meal times to assist residents? This would then take a shorter time and allow more time for staff to interact with the residents instead of just being left sitting in chairs. At approximately £1,700 per week surely there is room for this within the fees.

My wife, who has Alzheimer's, has been a service user of the Mills Meadow Daycare Club since the autumn of last year. She attends two days a week. The staff are amazing, including the manager. Everyone is made to feel welcome as soon as they arrive. The setting is warm and friendly. The clients are looked after and can take part in activities to stimulate them if they want to. If not, they can just sit quietly. They have regular visits from children and also live music. From my point of view, it gives me a few hours break each week which is really helpful for my mental and physical health. I am so glad a friend recommended Mills Meadow Daycare Club. I can't praise them highly enough and don't know what I would do without them.

I have visited my old friend at Mills Meadow. We had the most beautiful time. The atmosphere was magnificent. The care team were very helpful and the home manager received us with the most warm welcome even though they had never seen us before. My friend said that she was the most lucky person to be living there, where she always had something to do.

Mum has been a resident for a few years now. It gives us great peace of mind knowing that she is well looked after. Mum feels at home in Mills Meadow; she particularly enjoys her daily routine of walking around the garden, weekly hairdressing appointments and going on outings when the minibus is available. In our experience, staff are friendly as well as professional and make an effort to meet the wishes of each individual resident.

Very caring staff. Very good food. A very comfortable place for mother to live. Always warm and clean. Mother is very happy there. The support and management team is always approachable and very helpful.

I absolutely love this care home, I can’t wait to see the pictures posted on social media after my dads visits. He was reluctant at first but my mum tells me he’s really enjoying the day care. He’s very young to have been diagnosed but with the support provided by Mills Meadow Care Home my mum is getting the well deserved rest she needs and my dad is meeting new people and engaging in fun activities.
27 November 2023
The overall experience for my mum since she arrived 18 months ago has been outstanding. All staff are so very attentive in providing a very high level of both emotional and physical care. The management, kitchen staff, cleaners and housekeeping also engage with the residents which goes a long way to helping everyone feel “at home”. The friendly, relaxing, yet professional atmosphere that has been created at the home is a testament to the hard work and commitment of all those working there. From my experience, I wouldn’t have any hesitation in recommending Mills Meadow to any prospective resident.

In the last four months, Mills Meadow has taken on a new personality. A breath of fresh air has been breathed into it. The staff and management are "invigorated" and "inspired" by the new management team with one member of staff at the helm. The activities for the residents has also improved, which makes life for the resident so much more worthwhile.

I have a close friend that goes to Mills Meadow 5 days a week and he is so happy when he goes there. The staff are so kind and caring they welcome you with open arms. I feel it is such a lovely place to go to when I retire I would love to do some volute ring t hair as it would be a nice place to work in The staff work so hard and all the people that go there for care are well looked after.

My stepdad has been using the daycare services for a few months now. He is so happy when he visits and it is a pleasure to be updated with photos and news about all the activities he does throughout the day. It is a joy to see how happy he is when he is in the amazing care of all the staff. We have also had the opportunity to spend some days at the daycare centre, enjoying the carefree, fun and different activities available - a particular favourite was watching the staff and families dress up as horses and compete in races. All residents and visitors had a lovely time. Having a lovely setting for my stepdad to visit, has given my mum the ability to gain some much-needed respite. To be able to see her having the opportunity to relax for a few hours a day, knowing my stepdad is happy and safe, is a blessing. Thank you

Never have l seen such total dedication. It is in surroundings that calm and sincere. l only wish is that my mother had the opportunities when she was alive. All the staff should be very proud of their achievements.
