The staff have been excellent settling my brother into his new environment. They have done everything they can to ensure this is his new home. The staff are welcoming to family members and have reassured us that he will be well looked after. There are always activities available and clients are encouraged to take part. A good balance of things to keep my brother stimulated but also quiet areas where people can just have a rest if they wish. My brother is always clean and well presented. Clothes are changed if they become dirty. His room is always tidy and clean. Bedding always looks fresh and the bathroom clean too. I like how his room has many personal belongings and that this is encouraged. You always feel when you visit you are offered tea/coffee and very welcoming. The management team are so approachable and you never feel any request or issue is a problem. Definitely feel the Unit Manager sets an amazing standard which is reflected in the staff.

The care given to our mum was excellent Over the last 2 years. Sadly passed away a week ago. The care given at this sad time was beyond my expectations.I can without hesitation say the management and staff gave my mum their devoted time and professional care gave me comfort.It was a decision I had to make 2yrs ago to put mum into care I chose the right one. Leven Beach Care Home have given me memories of all she accomplished while in there care. But most of all that final day the palliative care given is why I can thank everyone .I know my mum when she was able thanked you also.

My brother has received excellent care in Leven Beach Nursing Home. Staff are always ready to work along with the family and are committed to getting the best possible outcomes for him. He has flourished with the support of staff and settled well. Staff have worked hard to ensure that the nursing home feels like his home and he has developed positive relationships with staff. He participates in many activities and it's lovely to see photos of him looking happy. Many thanks to all the staff.

When my brother moved into Leven Beach, he had spent 16 months in an acute mental health ward having been misdiagnosed for years. The experience of being in hospital had been very traumatic and harrowing for both my brother and the wider family. We had actively advocated for a place at Leven Beach as they had already cared for another family member and we had seen first hand the excellent care and support of both residents and the family. In particular, we had found the end of life care a to be expectational. The staff could not have been more supportive or sensitive and we came to trust them as the equivalent to members of our extended family. Since moving into Leven Beach, my brothers quality of life has changed dramatically. He is thriving under their care and through the activities. The best way to summarise our experience is to quote my brother who says 'he could not be any happier' and I cant thank the leadership team and staff enough for making this happen.

On a personal level, the stress of having to move my mother to Leven Beach was greatly reduced on the first visit to her after she'd been moved from a less than dignified period in hospital. My mother looked like her old self. She was smartly dressed, sitting upright up in her chair and smiling. My siblings and I are relieved to know our mother is in a safe place and receiving excellent care. From my mother's level, the staff work hard to understand and provide for her needs appropriately and with dignity. Their behaviour is reflected in my mother's warm responses to each and everyone. Activities offered are amazing. Choices of food are offered at meal times and snacks are available at others. I am very happy to have been recommended Leven Beach and to see my mother settled.

When my sister first entered Leven Beach, she was extremely confused and anxious and could not manage life at home, despite the huge amount of support she was getting. From the beginning I found all staff to be very welcoming and approachable, all know my sister and treat her as an individual. My sister's anxiety is now much reduced and she regards Leven Beach as her home, enjoying the varied program of activities which are imaginative and tailored to her needs. I get great comfort from the regular photographs and communication about her, this is very reassuring. I am delighted at the care my sister has received over the last 18 months, which has transformed her life and allowed me to relax, knowing she is safe and happy.

I was given a favourable recommendation of Leven Beach Care Home by someone who had already experienced care for her parents. My initial impression was very good with all staff extremely friendly and welcoming. Any concerns that I had were dealt with effectively and with kindness, to both my father and me. I was always listened to and solutions were found. My father's needs were dealt with in a caring and considerate manner with clear communication. The home is run in a relaxed but efficient manner. My father could not have been more comfortable in the few months that he was a resident. I have to add that the quality of the food is excellent and carefully tailored to each resident's needs. I highly recommend this care home.

We are truly thankful to have found a place here and it has made an enormous difference to know that Mum is so well looked after. She is treated with dignity and respect. All staff, managers, nurses, coordinators, carers, housekeeping and maintenance engage so positively with her. She feels safe and happy, enjoying activities and interactions for the first time in years and it is a joy to see her thriving again. It's a wonderful place with an inspirational manager and dedicated staff.

From the moment we stepped in the door, we knew that the recommendations were accurate. We were treated very kindly and guided through the application process clearly and professionally, and we felt very much at ease and very much welcomed and "at home". All the staff are friendly and funny, also the activities are very imaginative and coming to the home during the festive season was the tonic needed to settle into the "future" home. Thoroughly recommend.

As a family who visits very regularly, we have not had any cause for concern for the care my husband receives. We are always greeted and informed on how he has been, updated on his meal intake etc. I feel I can approach staff or management if I want any information.

Mum has been in Leven Beach for approximately a year and a half and in that time I have had no cause to complain about anything. I have always found the staff to be friendly and caring towards Mum and professional. Mum is always neatly dressed and clean. There are always fluids in her room. Anytime a doctor has been called out the staff always phone me to let me know the outcome. Overall very happy with the care home.

This is an excellent ran care home.
18 September 2023
A few points that we have noticed is that communication between resident and staff not always passed on, also often they say they are short staffed so waiting time for somethings not always good, they are just small things but if changed could make a huge difference.

When my uncle entered Leven Beach Care Home in June 2022 I was assured they would look after him for the rest of his life and that is exactly what the staff did. In spite of his increasing dementia, he enjoyed the food, chats with staff and entertainment in the first five months. When he fell and broke his hip at the end of November and had to go to the hospital, the manager immediately told me that they would have him back after the op and six days later he returned to the home. He received excellent nursing care for the next difficult four weeks until he slipped away aged 95. I live 200 miles away and could only visit every 2 weeks but never had any concerns about his care. I found later that when he died the staff had laid him out, dressed him in his own clothes and tucked his favourite toy cat in beside him for that final journey to the undertakers. I could not have asked for anything better. My heartfelt thanks go to all the staff at Leven Beach.

My sister and I are so pleased our mum is in Leven Beach. From day one, all the staff have been so kind and friendly, and we know Mum will be very happy there. Thank you so much for making the transition stress free; you are all doing a fantastic job.

The staff at Leven Beac are amazing. We were dreading putting Mum into permanent care, but the lovely, kind staff made the transition a comfortable and non-stressful experience. Well done, everybody!

Leven Beach Care Home has been very kind and thoughtful over the last few weeks as my mother-in-law has been at her frailest time. The staff are very friendly and help in every possible way that they can. We cannot fault the care that she has received since she first went into the home almost four years ago. Very quick to pick up and act on any medical needs that occurred.

Whilst it saddens me to leave a poor review, given the hard work of the staff at Leven Beach, the disrespect and deceit shown by the management team to myself and my dad cannot go unchecked. After a series of events, my dad was sent to hospital for psychiatric evaluation. It was explained to me that Leven Beach would keep dad’s room for a reasonable period depending on the outcome of the assessment. After 6 weeks I discovered that Leven Beach had stated on the day of transfer that there were no circumstances in which my dad would be accepted back. We have received no apology. In addition to the dishonesty and disrespect, my dad’s room had a very strong odour (made me boak even with a mask on!) and the floor was always sticky. Despite several reports this was never rectified.

The home and the staff have been extremely friendly and helpful in the care of my mum. They keep me regularly informed and send photos of the activities that my mum has taken part in. The rooms are always clean and tidy and the food is to a good standard.
