"Mum came into Barchester Bloomfield Care Home initially for respite with a view for permanent placement. We are very pleased with the care she is receiving and also the support and advice given to the family. We feel involved and supported."

"Mum arrived six weeks ago and from day one, the care, facilities and staff have been wonderful. The bedrooms, common rooms and gardens are inviting and the activities enjoyed by Mum most of the time. Everything has been thought of for the resident and family."

"Mum has been a resident at Barchester Bloomfield Care Home for the last 8 years. When she was admitted she came in receiving palliative care and now 8 years on and at the age of 99 she is doing well, can not fault the care she has had. Brilliant staff always there to help, great activities which mum always joined in when she could. All in all a great place for your loved ones to stay."

"My mother is bipolar so I know she is tricky to deal with. She has been looked after well. The staff are very friendly each time I visit and I know it has been tricky during all the lockdown period we have had. It's great to be able to visit mum again."

"The staff, particularly my mother's nurse, are lovely and very helpful. Unfortunately, my mother doesn't want to get out of bed, although she can, so misses out on the activities and other resident friendships that would benefit her. Home is always clean - we just wish mum would leave her room to join others for a chat or an activity!"

"Given the pandemic, we have obviously not been able to see my mother for most of the year, now we can see her once a week. The home appears to have been well maintained inside with no smells noticeable. Staff are friendly and informative."

"A lovely care home, lovely carers on mums unit. Sometimes difficult to get through on the telephone even with the new mobile. Mum would like more cups of tea please, as she has not been able to use the cafe in reception due to Covid. I hope I can start using it soon with her. Unfair to keep the door to reception/cafe locked, just because some residents wander."

"My brother came here for end of life care, and in my opinion, the care provided has been outstanding. He has sadly passed away, but while he was here, all of the staff I came in contact with showed professionalism, dedication and compassion that was matched with the love they poured into my brothers care. Thank you so much for all you did for him."

"From the day I arrived the staff have supported me in every way possible, making me laugh when I'm having a down day. There is so much they have done for me and I cannot mention everything. You will not find more kind and caring people (staff) anywhere else. They are amazing. I will miss them when I go home."

"Bloomfields greatest asset is its staff who were understanding, patient and kind to my uncle who could be difficult and demanding. They knew just how to placate him and spoke to him with respect and kindness."

"My father was admitted to Bloomfield in Paulton because he was exhausted from living at home. He looked so unwell I fully expected him to pass away within the next two weeks. Because of the care he was given, he managed to live an extra five months. We are all very grateful for this extra time with Dad."

"My mother had four weeks respite at Bloomfield. The care centre is more like a four-star hotel. The rooms were kept very clean and tidy. The food menu was very good and if required the cook would prepare what Mum wanted if possible. The activities were very good with good entertainment for the elderly. All the staff were very good and treated Mum with dignity and care required. Anyone visiting would be offered refreshments. All in all a very good environment."

"I have been in and out of your home for many years visiting different residents and have always found the staff helpful and friendly. Everything is always clean and the food very good. The facilities such as hairdressing and other activities are good and some of the staff have been there a long time which means a happy workplace. It seems a very well run home."

"My mother has been in here for nearly 18 months her treatment from all the staff has been excellent, she is very happy at this home. My mother is allowed breakfast in bed if she wants to(which she does most days.) The staff are all very approachable from the carers to the nurses, admin to the manager, cleaners to chefs.The staff are also excellent at dealing with internal family problems and differences of opinion within the family over the resident's care and needs. They are diplomatic, friendly, reassuring comforting, at this difficult time when tough decisions have to be made about our loved ones. My mother has become incontinent, she is never left in wet pads or clothes and even the chair covers are removed straight away so it never smells. If this home is still run in the same way when my health fails and I am no longer able to be cared for at home I am booking myself a place here. It is also reassuring to the residents knowing that their loved ones are also supported when the need arises."

"A very good home with large gardens for walking. It is bright and clean, also good standards including all linen. I found the big drawback was the quality of the food with the kitchen staff continually changing. The reason for leaving was the very high price per month for the service I was getting ie apart from a room and meals, no nursing was needed."

Desmond C

"In my mother's words she "couldn't be better looked after". We were told on admittance that residents were taken out in a minibus - this has never happened. Mum looks well and is happy, these are the priorities."

"Good quality care from the staff. Although busy they try to take time out with the residents. Food is nourishing and varied with a good selection for diabetics. Activities are available for those who wish to partake."

"My husband has been to Bloomfield for respite care several times and I have always been pleased with the care he received and also the help and consideration shown to me. The chef made a birthday cake for my husband and served it herself which was very kind."
