My Mum has been at Millington for over two years. I don't have the words to express my gratitude for how hard everyone has worked to keep her safe and ensure that the life she has is the best it can be for her. She has been a rather difficult customer from day one. Dementia and Alzhiemers and other health conditions. The manager, in particular has fought so hard to get Mum the support she needed from securing nursing care, which had been removed from her and then securing one to one support to help her to feel safe and secure when her mind was telling her otherwise. The home have gone over and above for Mum and sadly, she has to move on as they can no longer meet her needs. The staff at this home, and I am sure many others, do a job I could never do myself and perform tasks that give our loved ones the dignity and pride they are stripped of when these awful diseases take hold. Thank you seems empty and not enough. You are all wonderful!

The home is always clean, and residents not just my dad always seem happy. Carers go above and beyond to help residents and visitors alike. Food is freshly made every day, again the kitchen is very clean. Plenty of space to have private time with your relatives.

My father has been in Millington Springs now for just over a year and is doing really well. He always looks clean with his own clothes on and well fed, the staff are really nice keeping me informed as and when I need to know anything which in turn makes me happy to know my father is being looked after so well.

On entering the home for the first time, it seemed to fulfil needs but on closer inspection from past months, there seemed to be a lot that needed picking up on. I couldn't get to the home a lot as it was miles from where I live, and had to hope that in my absence my Uncle was getting the best care. I asked for a drink for my Uncle on one occasion, which they gave me, and he choked! No one had told me he now had thickened drinks and they certainly didn't know! When my uncle did pass away on Christmas Day 2023 and we went to fetch his belongings, there were faeces on his ornaments which was traumatising to myself and the family! Did no one check what they were giving us? By faeces, I don't mean smears, it looked like the basket of ornaments had been used as a toilet. To be honest, these things would have been easy to rectify and I am very disappointed with the care he received!

Mum has been in Millington Springs for some time. On her birthday, staff sang happy birthday in her room, kitchen staff made a birthday cake, presented in the dining room at lunch, again singing happy birthday. Photos were sent to us. Care and nursing staff are amazing, speaking to residents with care and affection and calming and soothing actions. The manager is just brilliant. He is a kind and caring man, he can't do enough for everyone, even disrupting his lunch. It is not uncommon for him to ask residents if they would like to sit with him while he is at his computer, having conversations and never getting annoyed when they get frustrated. He just changes the subject in a very calming way. The rooms are always spotless and smell fresh. The activities include a singer, a Christmas play, small animal day, summer fair etc. We are made welcome to have lunch with Mum, giving a small donation to the activities fund. I can't praise everyone enough. Thank you so much, everyone.

I want to start by saying how truly honoured I am to have had my nana stay here. She recieved the utmost care, and the staff were like family to her and to us as well. She sadly passed away on the 17th of May 2024 from breast cancer and dementia. Which, of course, was very upsetting, but up until that point, I can't thank the staff enough for their beautiful and happy urge to do what they do, which was love my nana, the same way we did. Thank you, Millington Springs, for giving Nana the best end-of-life care possible. My best advice is, to never stop doing what you're doing. God bless you and thank you for your service.

My 93 year old mother had been a resident in Millington Springs for two and a half years. I can honestly say the care was unbeatable. The home was immaculately clean, the food ample and beautifully cooked on site and the care and nursing staff both dedicated and enthusiastic. Great pride was always taken on the cleanliness of the residents giving them ultimate respect and dignity. Enthusiasm in theme days, quizzes and mental stimulation were also part of the care agenda. Until lockdown families were encouraged to join their loved ones on themed days (which were amazing). My mother was kept safe in Millington and I had no worries. During the pandemic the home exercises very tight rules to protect both residents and families. Millington treated me as part of their family with the utmost love and support. It is a marvelous place to put a loved one.

Millington Springs' dual residential/nursing registration offered us an obvious and improved care benefit when Mum’s old residential care needed to be increased. Despite some 'special measures' for a period, Mum has ALWAYS been treated with care and respect and any concerns listened and responded to in a timely manner. As the longest remaining resident she has seen many improvements: new routines and senior/clinical leadership now provide the clear direction and compliance previously lacking whilst the sincere care and compassion from staff still remains at the fore. Mum's fluctuating needs change hourly but her triggers are responded to well and they have no hesitation to involve us if appropriate. The home has navigated through Covid with compassion and care and worked with us to apply a common sense approach when Mum entered the 'end of life' stage during this time. No home is perfect – not even ours! – but they have always understood care and compassion for which we remain very grateful.
