We cannot thank you enough

January 11, 2019
Sometime in your life your belief in human nature falters, but since May 2018 when my relative joined you, my faith has returned. The humbleness and devotion in the way you treat people and help those in your care, is an inspiration to watch. We cannot thank you enough. Yours sincerely xxx

Great activities

December 17, 2018
I stopped by on Thursday evening to see my mother, who is a resident at Digby Manor and walked in midway through a performance of Oliver that had been put on by the home with outside performers. My mom was sitting across the room from me and did not notice me come in. I did not want to disturb the performance so I move to the side and had the opportunity to observe my mom singing along and really enjoying herself. Without me being noticed.

It really struck me the amazing difference in my mom in such a short space of time. Mom has spent several months in hospital, where though well cared for, she was really just a shell of herself. Before that, she was at home trying to live independently but failing.

It was a difficult thing to accept that we needed to have mom cared for. Finding a place you trust to look after the most valuable and vulnerable person in your life is not at all easy.

The short space of time mom has been in Digby Manor has made an incredibly change for good with mom. The anxiety she had over nearly everything, has disappeared. She looks amazing, with far more energy. I can put all of this down to the wonderful staff at Digby House. Ever cheerful and great banter with all the residents. Mom is never without an extra cushion or wrap (she is forever cold), even though everyone else is sweltering. Endless cups of tea, which are essential to an old Irish woman, a really welcoming atmosphere, we visitors are never an inconvenience or in the way. We may well be losing, our lovely mother to Alzheimer's, but it's great we do not have to worry at all about her care and wellbeing. Now she is safely ensconced in Digby Manor.

I would highly recommend Digby Manor Care Home as everyone who works at the home from management to the cleaners always seems to make a special effort to ensure that the residents feel at home. The staff is very friendly and always seems to go that extra mile, in order to meet the needs of each resident. There is always some kind of activity going on each day for the residents to help keep them active and to create a cheerful social environment. Finally, it is always nice to go home knowing that your family member is going to be well looked after and will be sleeping in their own spacious and comfortable bedroom.
