"Down from Scotland to visit my brother. Was good to see my brother happy and chatty. We were made to feel very welcome by everyone in the care home. Nothing was too much bother and staff took time to chat and make us feel welcome. I can return to Scotland knowing my brother is being well looked after. Thank you to everyone at the care home."

"My mother has been at the Beaumont for nearly two years. In that time although she has advanced Alzheimer's, her cognition has improved rather than declined. This, I think, is down to the care she receives and good nutrition. She has gained weight - she no longer needs laxatives and eats full meals rather than meal replacement type drinks. The staff are excellent, kind and gentle with residents. The turnover of staff is not high. The home is small and well run. I cannot recommend it highly enough."

"My father had been at Prestbury for 12 years and he lived mainly independently in an assisted living apartment. Many carers come and went during this time but they were all so polite and caring and treated him with the utmost dignity. They became his friends and they became ours too. When he had to move up to the nursing home everyone tried to make the move as easy as possible for him. Nothing was too much trouble for anyone. During the last 3 month of his life, all the staff and carers were so compassionate to both my father and the family."

"The home is clean and well kept. The staff are lovely - friendly and helpful. The gardens are well kept, there's a sitting out area when the weather is warm. I believe the exterior is to be printed this year. The manager is first class. There is a selection of accommodation, appointments, bungalows and nursing home. It's approximately 1 and a half miles from the village."

"We had to find somewhere for our mother at quite short notice over a weekend. After looking at viewing several options locally (many of which were not able to see us at the weekend) - The Beaumont staff were brilliant, allowing us to visit immediately and arranging for a home assessment by a member of staff even though it was her day off. Nothing was too much trouble! The staff member who visited understood our needs and addressed everything, often anticipating queries to put us all at ease and enable us to fully prepare for my mother's month long stay with them. Thank you!"

"I was recommended your home by a past respite resident. I could not have wished for anything better. The staff looked after me brilliantly, to get me back on my feet before going home after a hip replacement. Thank you to everyone."

"My mother has now been resident in the Prestbury Beaumont for eight years. When she arrived we were very happy with her overall care. Then there was a change of manager and things like activities, laundry, fewer carers around on the ground floor at weekends. Now a new manager and everything seems to be improving again."

"Lovely care home in beautiful surroundings, the staff are friendly and very professional. The daily menu is varied and the food is of a good standard, there are daily activities that residents can take part in."

"Generally, the care is good but periodically I would welcome more opportunity to be outside in the gardens etc weather permitting. Some soft background music in the dining room and lounge would be nice."

"My 93 year old mother fell ill in her home and was treated in hospital then discharged to Prestbury Beaumont care Community, as it was obvious she was no longer able to live on her own. After a week she was re-admitted to hospital and her condition deteriorated to the point where she was unfortunately no longer able to be cared for in the home. Although her stay was just a week at all times she was treated with courtesy, patience and kindness."

"Since my mother arrived here after 11 weeks in the hospital, she has put on weight, is going down for lunch, joining in activities (in a wheelchair) and is interacting with people again. She is having walks almost daily with me, as she is unable to do this unaided or with a walking frame... Yet, this is wonderful for her family to see. She knew some of the staff when she went there as she was living downstairs in an assisted apartment before her hospital stay and wanted to go back to the home rather than anywhere else. The staff are always smiling and so good with mum."

"My father has excellent care over a nine-month period and we both experience a great deal of friendship and support. A lot of the care, housekeeping and admin staff go to extra lengths to be thoughtful and kind. The standard of cleanliness, the food and general environment cannot be faulted."

"Main Issue - Shortage of trained care staff. I was promised more one to one care so that I could wash, go to the toilet and have physio when I needed it. Considering I had paid £1600 a week for respite care, this didn't happen. The bedridden were prioritised each morning so I had to wait which meant I had cold water for my time 8:30 - 9 am. So I decided to bathe at 7 am. I was told I would be helped with exercise and to get back on my feet to go home but when I asked no one was ever available to supervise. The physio only came twice when I was promised three times a week. Don't promise what you can't deliver."

"My mother moved to an apartment in the Beaumont last year and then to a care bed upstairs since February this year. I cannot praise too highly the professional care that my mother received in the last months of her life. The entire team is caring, compassionate and hardworking and I commend them to prospective customers. The infrastructure and equipment are commensurate with the needs and the environment of the home both internally and externally is excellent."

"My son and I are very happy with the care my husband has. I would recommend the Beaumont to anybody. I never have any worries about the care and all the carers are very caring and happy with all the residents."

"Mum has been in Prestbury Beaumont for almost 15 months. She tells me often "everybody is so nice and kind here" and I totally agree. The people make this place special. There is a culture of gentleness and all the staff care about the residents. The Beaumont is a beautiful building and as you enter you feel like this is a special place. The setting is in such beautiful surroundings and feels like a haven to Mum. I feel so happy that Mum is in such a wonderful home with such lovely people around her. It means I can carry on with my busy life knowing Mum is happy and treasured. Truly amazing place."

"My mother has been a resident at Prestbury Beaumont for 6 years now. Initially, she was classed as 'Assisted Living' but as time has progressed and she has become frailer and developed some memory loss, she is now 'Residential'. I have always found the home to be very open and friendly with a stable welcoming workforce. The manager has gone out of her way to listen to any concerns we have and been prepared to be very flexible regarding Mum's sometimes idiosyncratic habits and dignity and privacy seem to feature highly in the ethos of the whole team. I am very happy with the quality of the nursing team and the carers. The food is excellent and all residents who can, are encouraged to come to the dining room for lunch and guests are most welcome to join residents (3-course meal for £10) There is a wide program of activities but my mother hasn't wanted to partake in those. My mum says she is very content and happy there."

"The care our friend received was exceptional. We have visited other care homes and The Prestbury Beaumont is by far the best one in the area. The staff on the reception desk are warm and welcoming and always willing to help. The staff and the facilities on-site made a huge difference to our friend’s well-being and health."

"My mother has resided at Prestbury Beaumont for more than nine years now and she has been very happy and settled. Recently her health has taken a turn for the worse and I have been impressed at the way in which all staff, even those not on the ‘care team’, have her best interests at heart and have sought ways to make her more comfortable and keep her safe. In her more lucid moments, she continues to tell me how kind everyone is at the Beaumont. I know that great efforts are being made to help my mother to retain her dignity which is important to my sister and I as our mother has always been a private person. The Beaumont is a home from home and the building itself is as welcoming as the staff."

"The care home was very comfortable and pleasant. The service was excellent and all the staff, medical, carers, domestic and management were helpful, efficient and always cheerful. I could not ask for anything better. I was only a resident for a week after an operation but I could not imagine being cared for in any way that would be an improvement on the care I was given."

"My mother-in-law has just been in the Beaumont for two weeks of respite care. We have found the care they have given her exemplary. All the staff seem to be genuinely caring and the nursing staff and manager were extremely helpful, going beyond what I would expect. They got to know her well during her short time here and assessed her needs well. They were proactive about dealing with health issues and very flexible in accommodating her wishes. They were also extremely good at communicating with relatives. I would highly recommend them."

"I have just ended a four-week stay here, after an attack of Polymyalgia. As a retired dental surgeon, I know the importance of connecting with the patient - therapy in itself. That is a high priority here, in addition to the dignity, kindness and professionalism of a wonderful staff. I was very sorry to leave and will return. I have six years experience of care homes due to the illness of my husband and Prestbury Beaumont is a league above!"

"I am most appreciative of the standard of care given to my husband. My first visit was greatly reassuring and the initial impression was that 'he looked cared for'. The staff, without exception, have been most courteous, kind and considerate to us both."

"My dad went to Prestbury Beaumont Care Community when he was discharged from hospital. He sadly passed away after two weeks. The service and communication we received from the staff and manager was excellent, and luckily I managed to visit my dad the day before he passed. Due to Covid, our visits were restricted, but the staff have been so lovely and kind and I'm glad my dad was in such a nice place and cared for so well in his final days."

"Mum was only here for a short time for end of life care after hospital discharge. She was very happy with all aspects of the care, including round the clock nursing and access to a lovely GP. The staff were unfailingly kind to the family over this sad period and nothing was too much trouble. Just a lovely place all round. I wish she had gone there sooner actually. A peaceful and fitting end to a long life."

Our mother is being well looked after at the home and visiting is a warm and friendly experience. Also, the food is wholesome and well-presented in the restaurant or room. Well done all."

"What stands out to me mostly abouT Barchester Prestbury Beaumont Care Community are the lovely staff who go the extra mile for the residents. There is a fabulous and varied activities programme which engages the residents and encourages friendships. Recently residents were treated to a canal boat trip, fish and chips outing and a summer fete. The staff take time to get to know the residents personally and care is centred around the individual. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this care home."

"From my first impromptu visit, I could tell that the staff were very loving and caring. I was looked after so well, being so upset with regard to my father. He arrived at the home the following day, and we all knew he was going to be very well cared for. For this, I would like to say a massive thank you to all of the staff."

"I think some members of staff could improve communication whilst caring for the service users by explaining what is the next step so they don't feel so confused and pads could be checked more and changed more often. But above all, we understand they are doing their best and they are aware there is room for improvement. However, the staff are universally kind and friendly."

"From my very first contact with the deputy manager at Barchester Prestbury Beaumont Care Community, I felt we would be in safe hands. The general manager and the whole team were wonderful in every way - absolutely faultless - the most wonderful, caring people you could wish to meet. At a very difficult, worrying time, regarding Mum, we were cocooned in love and support. We did not use the facilities as Mum stayed in her room but the staff and the food were incredible."

"My experience with this care home was amazing! My father was a resident for only a week as respite care from hospital. From the moment he met the care home manager, I knew he felt completely safe and that he would be caringly looked after. And he certainly was. The domestics, nurses and in fact, all the staff were so friendly and personable and treated my father with such dignity. A particular mention should go to the manager and a member in staff, in particular, who my father was particularly fond of. They really did take the greatest of care of him and I will be forever grateful."

"Beautiful home set in lovely, well-maintained grounds. The home manager and her team should be congratulated on the exceptionally high standards of care provided at Barchester Prestbury Beaumont Care Community. My friend was treated like royalty with the utmost of respect and dignity at a very difficult time. Thank you from the bottom of my heart, you are all angels and I will always be very grateful that you made my friend's wishes come true during the last days of his life."
