What our families say on carehome.co.uk

"This care home is exceptional, the guided tour of the home before my mother went was very informative with a guided tour of the home and facilities being included. After the visit, our minds were made up that this was the home for our mum. The level of care by the care team is second to none, nothing is ever too much trouble. Thank you. The building is amazing and very well looked after with high standards of cleaning and hygiene at all times. Food, great choice with very good quality. Thank you to everyone at the home, your efforts, love and care are much appreciated. Thank you all."

"My mother has resided at Beaumont for almost two years. She is comfortable and well cared for with a very friendly staff at all levels. If I have any reservations it is with the G.P. service allocated to the home. Contact is difficult and sometimes slow to react."

"I have visited numerous care/nursing homes, before deciding that "Barchester Southgate Beaumont" was way above in all respects and was the ideal place for my brother. Having spent a full year at Beaumont, both myself and my brother are more than satisfied with everything. Indeed we are very grateful to your organisation."

"Barchester Beaumont has cared for my mother for about three and a half years, during this time she has enjoyed a healthy life taking part in the various activities and daily life at the home. Her health remains good and she receives daily care and help that would not have been available if she was still living at home alone. Thank you, Beaumont."

"My father was a resident there for 2 and a half years. I cannot speak highly enough for everything they did for him. I know as a daughter I drove them mad for certain things. They cared for my father and even called him Papa (Daddy) - but cared for him like their own. He enjoyed the activities and loved the carers and residents there. I cannot thank the manager enough. She listened and was always a shoulder to cry on and I will never forget what they did for the best dad in the World."

"My husband arrived at Beaumont three months ago. He found it very difficult at first, confused mainly. He has now settled down, his needs are fairly complex but staff are now getting used to him as he cannot speak to ask for anything. He loves music and television. The thing that he loves most is the 'entertainment', he cannot take part in many of the various things for residents to enjoy, but music and pets are a vital part for him and make a big difference. Management has always reacted well if I need to speak with them and the staff are very good but very busy. Thank you."

"I have lived here for almost 5 years and have been comfortable with the caring and nursing services provided. The management provides an eclectic range of activities for a wide mix of residents - both mental and physical pursuits at differing levels of engagement - and entertainment by professional visiting musicians and local amateur groups; films, lectures, visits from local schools, pet therapy etc; 1/2 day trips to venues in the area and outings for both mobile and wheelchair-bound residents. The carers are trained by the company and their attitudes and competencies are monitored. The standard of décor is maintained at a high level and the cleaning staff work very diligently to keep the rooms and public spaces clean."

"The facilities on general are excellent. Unfortunately, my mother is bedridden and so not able to enjoy all of them. The care staff have bonded well and clearly care about what they are doing and the people they are looking after. I have recommended the provider to a friend."

"The staff treated our mother with respect, friendliness and kindness. Her stay in this grand house contributed majorly to her rehabilitation and after 14 weeks of top quality care, she was able to return home. As visitors we were always greeted with genuine warmth, staff knew us by name and mum warmed to everyone over the weeks as her health improved. Mum looked forward to the list of events and participated in many of them enthusiastically. I would say that e-communication or telephone calls back is not a strong point, very few emails were answered promptly and some not at all, so if you want to ask or query anything - do it in person. A big thanks to everyone at the Beaumont."

"Generally positive. Some stellar staff. Work needed to improve security of valuables. Good range of activities. Staff are knowledgeable and generally caring. The softer, gentler approach by staff, speaking at a calm and measured pace brought out the best in our relative, whether it was kitchen staff, housekeeping, carers etc. This was generally the experience."

"My father went into Beaumont Care for respite initially, he said he was only staying 2 weeks, ended up staying 4 weeks. When he left he said he could have easily stayed another 2 months. Excellent service from staff, first class."

Carol F

"My father (89-years-old) needed respite care after a fall, giving him time to regain his strength, confidence and allow him to return home. The Barchester was able to welcome him to stay at short notice, where he enjoyed the daily activities, meals and care."

"We asked Southgate Beaumont to provide respite care after my uncle received heart surgery, he is 92. The home is spotless, extremely well furnished, warm and inviting. The level of care is world-class. The food standard is very acceptable. The carers are fantastic and always go the extra mile. We consider ourselves very fortunate to have placed my uncle in Southgate Beaumont, particularly during the Covid-19 pandemic. We have received regular communication and they have kept the residents safe. A "great team"."

"I arrived just a week before lockdown in 2020. I was made very welcome and other flat residents helped me to settle in and learn how the home was organised. The staff have been most helpful, cheerful and encouraging during this difficult year. It is difficult to understand and keep abreast of the changing regulations due to Covid."

"My mum was admitted to Barchester Southgate Beaumont Care Community on 10th May 2024 for end-of-life care. I was with her every day and the second week was sleeping there too, net to Mum. Even though we were in beautiful surroundings, what made it so special was the staff. Everyone, absolutely everyone, was caring, attentive to Mum, supportive to me and the rest of the family. I have never experienced such love and true care from everyone. I want to thank everyone from the bottom of my broken heart for being there for us."

"From start to end, our families experience at the Barchester Southgate Beaumont Care Community was outstanding. Not only were my grandmother's last days/weeks made comfortable and unforgettable, each member of our family was made to feel just as important. The quality of staff was amazing and something we will cherish forever."

"My 97-year-old mother-in-law has now been at Southgate Beaumont for some months. Throughout this time, she has been very well cared for by skilled, friendly and supportive staff. As a relative, when visiting, I always feel welcomed and a 'part of things’, the atmosphere feels warm and upbeat. Our three adult children have all expressed a similar level of positivity following their visits to Grandma. My mother-in-law has never really been one to join in with groups but at Southgate Beaumont she is gently encouraged to take part in some of the varied range of interesting activities available, organised by the very involved, caring and pro-active activities coordinator. I would have no hesitation in highly recommending Southgate Beaumont to potential families (and indeed have done so only today!)"

"My mother, aged 97, was admitted to The Southgate Beaumont Care Home on 16th October 2023 having fallen and broken her hip and being unable to return home. Her care at the home has been exemplary both in the nursing sense and the emotional support she has received. Despite being mainly bedbound she has been free of pressure sores and any medical complaint has been dealt with swiftly and efficiently. The staff are, without exception, caring, friendly and helpful and the home is run extremely efficiently by manager. The food is excellent. There are a number of varied social activities that take place daily, organised by the ever-enthusiastic co-ordinator and the atmosphere of the nursing home is one of good cheer and warmth. As a retired social worker, I have over the years visited scores of residential/nursing homes and I can honestly say Southgate Beaumont is the best I have come across. I cannot recommend the nursing home highly enough."

"Beaumont is beautiful from home to home, my mum is currently staying at Beaumont and she is made so welcome and comfortable. Even though she has language difficulties the staff are all extremely happy to help Mum all the time. Cleaning her and keeping her room very clean and tidy. All the staff and the nurses are very nice and friendly. I would highly recommend Beaumont Home for the elderly."

"I spent a very happy fortnight at Barchester Southgate Beaumont recovering from a hip replacement operation. I find the staff helpful and friendly, the food just right and the activity sessions interesting and enjoyable. Southgate Beaumont engages an excellent physiotherapist. I enjoyed chatting to the residents."

"My dad received 'end of life' care until his passing on Christmas Day. During his brief stay, Dad was very well looked after by the team of carers and nurses at Southgate Beaumont. Credit must go to the general manager for her leadership and having a great team working with her including the deputy manager, one of the key nurses, and of course the activities coordinator. I was ever present during Dad's stay, working on my laptop in a lounge adjacent to his room, which I know was of great comfort to Dad. The home is beautiful, clean and well-maintained by the cleaners and maintenance staff. Though Dad was unable to eat very much, food prepared by the chef was of a very high standard. In summary, Dad received a high level of care from a great team of professionals who really did care about Dad's well-being and who were always open to suggestions and ways in which they could improve the care given. I would have no hesitation in recommending Southgate Beaumont."

"I have been associated with Southgate Beaumont for over 15 years; almost 5 whilst my aunt was a resident, subsequent years as volunteer assisting with activities. Throughout this time, the high quality of care and the sense of well-being in very pleasant surroundings has been maintained."

"It is the second time that my wife has needed to enter Beaumont. If we had cause to complain we wouldn't have returned the second time. If I had problems I acknowledge that I would readily approach management/staff to remedy them. Overall a pleasant as can-be (under the circumstances) experience and atmosphere within the home. Appreciated by both my wife, family and I. Thank you. I have no experience in comparing the value for money aspect."

"Great manager and brilliant staff who are caring and professional, beautiful building, well kept with lovely gardens and trees - activities well co-ordinated. Nice location and handy row of shops, cafes and post office across the road in "village" type Southgate Green."

"Southgate Beaumont is a beautiful, clean, well-maintained home. It is a place where residents are valued. Families are made to feel welcome and part of the home. The staff are genuinely positively engaged in the care they give and feel pride and value in what they do and why they are there. My mother often told us how well she felt cared for and how all the staff were kind to her. The activities coordinator holds and knows each and every one of the residents. She relates to them with so much genuine dignity and brings their past and present lives to life. The physiotherapists were not only clinically excellent but also so kind, gentle and compassionate. The chef was wonderful. The general manager is visible and personally knows the residents her team are caring for. The management team constantly seek to learn and improve services for the residents and families they care for. What a wonderful place. Thank You."

"My mother is a resident of Beaumont. She was diagnosed with cancer after briefly feeling unwell. Sadly it was too late for any kind of treatment. Given her rapid decline and sudden loss of independence, I was glad to find a beautiful and spacious room available at Beaumont for her to receive the nursing care she needs. She has settled in very well. The staff are kind, caring and cheerful! The food is very good and I am happy and relieved that Mum is in good hands in a safe place when I am not there. I visit every day and know most of the staff by name. They are kind and caring to me as well! Beaumont feels like my home now as this is where my mum is. It is a lovely place to arrive at each day and it doesn’t feel like a depressing care home. Although my mum is too ill to participate in the activities, I see there are plenty of residents here who enjoy the variety of amusements available. There are too many staff to mention all by name but they all have my and mum’s sincerest gratitude."

"I spent three weeks respite in Beaumont Southgate to spend time with my husband who is in residential care. I really enjoyed the experience and could find no fault with anything. Everything was first-class and the staff are very helpful and friendly. During my stay, it was our 60th Diamond Wedding Anniversary and the management and staff arranged a surprise celebration do. We were overwhelmed by the lovely event and thank everyone for their thoughtfulness."

"I would like to thank all the staff at Barchester Southgate involved in the care of my mother-in-law. When she arrived, she was very confused, weak and poorly. With the excellent care provided for her she regained her strength and lived her last few months in comfort. She passed away with great dignity and for this, we shall always be grateful."
