I received a wonderful welcome to the home, with attention and consideration to every detail. The staff were very professional and efficient in dealing with all requests. The well-being of all is paramount and it is a home with much tender loving care. All staff appear to be full of much kindness to residents and visitors. In many cases, the resident has to give up their home, creature comforts and things they know and love, which is a bereavement in itself, therefore, this condition receives much care until the resident has settled down. There is always someone available to give help, direction and guidance. It is wonderful for a loved one to say, at last, I feel safe! I am contented and well cared for. Staff go the extra mile to spread happiness. The church services, led by the Chaplain and other ministers, are a great help and enjoyed by those who attend. Entertainment provided is varied, and suited to the needs of those partaking; there is much laughter and enjoyment.

The care at Bradbury Grange is excellent. Residents are treated kindly and with respect as are the visitors. Everywhere is very clean and welcoming. I would recommend Bradbury Grange to anyone unreservedly. Well done to all who work there!

Considering Mum's age and health condition, she doing well and seems settled now. Very homely atmosphere, staff, residents and visitors make it so (based on recent visits) a little sadness sometimes, but overall joyous, upbeat atmosphere. Nice environment, nice, caring attentive staff, visitors made very welcome, nice food. Facilities and materials, interesting books to browse through, objects, therapy objects to focus on and enjoy. My mum had 1 to 1 singing therapy, also group therapy takes place in the main living area with all residents. A trip to the local museum next week. All reassuring.

I am always sure of a warm welcome when I arrive, the staff have become familiar with me over the 18 months I have been visiting, most of them greeting me by name. They have had patience with my sister because she was very critical of everything when she first started here (she knew she could no longer care for herself but was reluctant to be here). She has always been well cared for and I am sure I could find no better home for her to be.

I think this home is lovely. Clean, comfortable and friendly. The staff are professional and welcoming. My auntie always looks happy, comfortable and well cared for. A lovely buzz about the place, with entertainment for the residents - what else can you ask for?

I visit my partner three to four times weekly. I am always treated with kindness, consideration and respect. The same is true for my partner, who has multiple needs and many mood swings which are all taken into careful consideration in the way she is being looked after. Staff team work incredibly hard, but they have a positive attitude and are well supported by management. I have visited a number of care homes, this is the best!

My mum has been a resident now for three months at Bradbury Grange and moving from her own home to residential care closer to me has been a hard transition for her and all the staff have been very supportive, kind and friendly to both her and myself. I am really pleased with how well Mum is now putting on weight, she really enjoys the food and looks 100% healthier. The caretaker has been great in assisting to personalise her room so that she has familiar surroundings including a very large plant! This move has given me such peace of mind knowing that my mum is safe and secure and very well supported and cared for by all the staff. I thoroughly recommend Bradbury Grange.

My mum has been in Bradbury Grange for over three years now. It feels homely when you walk around, which is the reason for choosing this particular home. The staff are caring and attentive and the residents seem happy. It has also improved recently with more staff being employed.

I cannot speak highly enough of all of the staff at Bradbury Grange. Over the last seven months, I have watched the staff and been highly impressed and grateful that they care for the residents. There is a strong sense of family caring, which resonates throughout the home and makes it a happy place to live. A big thank you to everyone who works or volunteers at Bradbury Grange!

The manager and staff ensured that my father settled into Bradbury Grange with care and kindness at a difficult time of year. Nothing was too much trouble. He is now thriving in his new surroundings. We are very grateful.

My friend was only at Bradbury Grange for a very short period, but the staff were very kind and attentive. They did everything to make her comfortable and content. The staff especially, went out of their way to provide her with a radio station through a tv, when modern DAB outlets failed. I would not hesitate to recommend Bradbury Grange.

My father has been a resident here for the last six months. His transition from home life to being in a residential establishment was not easy, but was very well facilitated by the kind, friendly and helpful staff. Since being there he looks 100% better and although still settling in, I am confident that I have no worries regarding his care. My only quibble and this is petty, but it would be nice to see some more plants around, as I do believe 'greenery' can have a lovely soothing effect. Maybe the residents, if they were up to it, could participate in their care.

I came to this home for respite having lost my husband some months ago, I have received such care and kindness from the staff and some of the residents. I have decided to become a permanent resident for I feel safe, secure and comfortable. The caretaker has made my room very homely for which I am grateful. I can see my family and enjoy the rest of my time in here.

My mother moved into Bradbury Grange following a lengthy stay in hospital. Unfortuablet she was only there for just over 2 months so didn't really have time to settle in but the care she received during this time was exemplary. I was very impressed by the sensitivity and kindness shown during her last few days. I would highly recommend this home.

Bradbury Grange is a careing and friendly home. I am often amazed at the careing and helpful way most of the staff are and they really do care for the welfare of elderly people. We do have times of recreation and exercises daily. Yes, it is a pleasant place.

My mum is 101 and has been at Bradbury for four years and is very happy there. The staff are attentive and caring and the management communicates well. There’s a beautiful garden and the home is very well designed. I’d have no hesitation in recommending it.

My mother was a resident at Bradbury Grange, Whitstable for four years which she thoroughly enjoyed. She built positive relationships with the carers and staff who treated her with thoughtfulness and respect, always finding time to chat and take an interest in her family and life stories. She was well cared for, always treated with consideration. Any concerns were swiftly and positively dealt with. Above all, the dignity, love and kindness shown in the last few weeks of her life was outstanding. Everyone demonstrated such sympathy and compassion to Mum and the whole family; it was beyond our expectations. Thank you Bradbury!
