When visiting my sister, I’ve always been so impressed with the care shown to her by the staff. She enjoys the food and the care.
Absolutely terrible facility. Staff at the front desk are rude and unhelpful. Management seems only concerned about arse covering and has no concern for the residents that have been locked in their rooms for months on end. Complaints regarding the food are met with the response that they are short staffed and there’s nothing they can do. Staff shortages shouldn’t result in poor attitude. Think long and hard before putting a loved one in this prison camp

Come in for a meal, turn up for the special occasion (Christmas, Easter) meal, take part in raffles, go through lost property for anything that might be missing. - There are support services for you. Counseling, advice. - The facilities are under constant refurbishment and are kept in good repair and cleaned well. - If end of life is imminent, they will put in place a plan with your consultation to cover that time. - They have equipment on site for end of life. I have been to other care facilities, for extended periods, and in my experience this is a good place. You don't have to fight every moment for the basics and if they say something will be provided, it will. It made the final days with our relative good.
Poor treatment of our family member in a situation that could have been handled much better. No care for residents when they really need it.
Baptcare is run as a business. No personal touches for residents, bland hospital feel and food. The worst thing being no good plans in place for people who get dementia as they are not "qualified" to deal with them so residents are booted to the closest hospital to be dealt with. My grandmother was left in hospital for days without a change of clothes and nothing else because Baptcare was no longer "responsible" during her stay. She was lucky we were there for her but imagine residents without any family being left to suffer. Even the staff spoke to us in a condescending tone when we tried to voice our concerns.
