What our families say: Longueville Court Care Home

"Dad was very happy at Longueville Court Care Home. He was very settled and always had a smile when I visited. I wish to thank everyone for their kind support and understanding."

"From the moment I first stepped in, I knew this was the care home I wanted my mum to live in. Unfortunately, she was only with you for a few weeks before she died, but the care from the nurses and the rest of the team was excellent. Everyone was so friendly and always spoke to me when I visited. The home was very clean, rooms spacious and homely. I would certainly recommend Longueville Court to anyone thinking of care for their parents."

"The care given to relatives is brilliant. They are looked after so well. Everyone knows the residents and they do not use agency staff and never have. They all go over and above their duty to keep residents safe. The resident is peg fed so the food I can't answer but in the past was good when I had a meal with the resident, even on a gluten-free, egg-free and nut and banana free diet they could cater for."

"My mother received excellent care at Longueville Court in her final few weeks. The nursing staff, in particular, were incredibly attentive and knowledgeable. The home is clearly well run, and all the staff are professional and caring. The absence of agency staff is a good sign that staffing levels are more than adequate. Along with the fact that the home is spotlessly clean, it is hard to find fault with anything to do with the place. Having seen many care homes, I highly recommend Longueville to anyone."

"Please do not be conned into leaving your loved ones in the care of the manager here. A catalogue of falsehoods spiralling out of control made an awful situation heartbreaking. A complaint was logged using their link yet never acknowledged. The manager is not to be trusted and is very well-rehearsed when it comes to blatant lies to distance loved ones who see the place for what it is. Gardens are lovely but you won’t see a resident in them, the viewing unit Skylark is beautiful but your loved one won’t go in there! In fact, the majority of residents seem to be crammed into Kingfisher with minimal staff. The quiet corridors of Skylark are very different to the screaming and desperate pleas for help that is heard through the rest of the corridors! The physio that is advertised is non-existent so don’t expect to see your loved one walking after that stroke. The whole place is based on lies and cover-ups."

"Mum has been at Longueville Court for 18 months and is very well cared for on Memory Lane. Mum is safe, always very clean and enjoys her food. Dad joined the home on respite a year ago and has stayed, as he is able to be with Mum. The nurses and carers show respect, kindness and compassion, which Dad comments on when he sees the care that mum is getting. The activities team have a great sense of fun and they go out of their way to please dad, such as picking up his newspaper every day and making a special Valentine's tea for them. Thank you, chef! Kingfisher Unit are very kind to Dad and the lead nurse is excellent at communicating any issues to me. I have every confidence in the team led by the manager who always makes time to help my parents and our family, as does her deputy. Longueville is a safe, caring and happy place. Thank you one and all!"

"To date, I have been very pleased with the care the Barchester - Longueville Court has provided for my mother who has dementia. The staff notifies me regarding any issues or concerns. My mother is looked after with respect and she is allowed to walk around the corridors which she enjoys and to seek company from the staff ie allowed to sit in the nurses office. There appear a variety of activities for my mother if she so wishes to take part. The manager is always available via phone or e-mail which is appreciated."

It was spotlessly clean, friendly and the staff couldn't do enough to help you with your requirements, medical or mental. My time helped me through a very difficult time in my life and gave me back a zest for life. The food's excellent too! Main the staff place the place so good."

"This is an excellent home and cares for our daughter brilliantly. All staff very polite when answering the phone and keep us informed as needed. This is very important at the time. The staff work very hard to keep our daughter well and safe. The management is also excellent at answering questions and do whatever is needed for us. Thanks to all staff at this very challenging time."

"My father was a resident at Longueville Court Care home and our family experience of the home is it's extremely well managed with a superb team of staff from reception and admin to highly competent, compassionate, caring and professional care staff as well as highly qualified and experienced nursing staff. In addition support staff such as those in maintenance, cleaning and laundry demonstrated considerable care and dedication to the needs of residents and my father in particular. Nothing was too much trouble. During the last two weeks of my father's life the level of care, compassion, sensitivity to need was of considerable help to us as a family especially during the challenging COVID situation and associated restrictions the care home has to operate within to ensure the safety and well-being of staff and residents. Care home staff and especially the care home manager, made a very difficult situation just that little bit easier, for which we are extremely grateful."

"1. Care provided very good and thanks to care staff. 2. Strongly suggest that all staff have training to help them with communicating with families more sensitively and to meet resident confidentiality. Bigger coffee space. 3. Activities on offer need to be broadened so residents with Alzheimer's have more sensory and musical experiences and more trips out. 4. Think Memory Lane Longueville needs updating and renovating. Would be nice if it had a nicer name and newsletter had news from Memory Lane."

"Longueville Court is a very happy home with brilliant staff. They care for my daughter very well, and we know she is in good hands, which is very important at the moment. Activities team very good at Skype calls, which really help at this time. As the resident cannot speak, phone calls to the unit are answered politely and we can ask questions when needed, and given up to date info the phone calls really help at this unprecedented time. Nurses are good at ringing us when needed. I can say the food is good, as had a visitor's meal at Christmas, and they can deal with food allergies well, but don't know what they're like at the moment."

Staff very friendly and I can’t fault the two activity ladies who do wonders, as they are down from four to two people, to do the same work in difficult circumstances.

The rooms were much larger and nicer than anywhere else I have seen. Nothing is too much trouble here. Sadly we couldn't be with Mum in her final weeks but we are comforted to know in her final moments they never left her and held her hand until the end. We are eternally grateful."

"I viewed another home a few months ago but unfortunately have been unable to Longueville Court since Mum has been there due to COVID-19. I cannot, therefore, complete some of the boxes below. Mum resides on Memory Lane, having moved from the NHS system in April. It is extremely hard not to be able to visit her (for reasons that we fully understand and support). However, the staff has been immensely helpful in enabling me to communicate with Mum by telephone on a regular basis. The staff has kept me fully informed of Mum's health and day to day condition."

"My Mum was a resident at Longueville Court for 8 years, she died on 24/04/20, not from the Covid 19 virus, but other causes. I want to praise the staff, Carers and Nurses for looking after my Mum so well. From the moment she arrived, she was treated as though it was her own home and she became one of their family. She suffered with Alzheimer's, and at times as the illness progressed she became very difficult and sometimes unpleasant to care for, but the staff always treated her so kindly and had patience beyond belief. In the last 2 years or so she became confined to her bed and got more frail and the Skylark team really loved her and found ways of handling her so she didn't get distressed, it was lovely to see. I had complete confidence that my Mum was being kept clean, cosy and calm, fed well etc. They would play her cd's, dress her in her favourite clothes, spray her with her perfume, cuddle and calm her when she cried. Additionally, they supported me, becoming like friends."

"My mother, aged 91, first stayed in Longueville Court for respite care after a fall at home in which she broke her wrist. The staff at the home treated her with respect and kindness, even though she made it clear she didn't want to be in a care home! Her second stay was a short one, only two weeks before she died. Again, she was treated with dignity and kindness. The staff, especially on Kingfisher, are very compassionate and patient."

"Mum stayed on Longueville Court Care Home for nearly three years and came to regard it as her home and the staff as her friends. The care she received especially in the last two weeks of her life was exemplary. She was treated with great compassion and sympathy along with her family for which we will always be grateful. The one improvement that could be made is that her room looked tired and was in need of a total refurbishment both decor and furnishings."

The staff have been caring towards him and he has always been treated with dignity. Four of the staff have been there from the time that he was admitted and that must have a great deal to do with the management. Well done to the staff."

"After many falls my mother-in-law moved into Longueville Court. from day one we were told, "This is her home, treat it as so". From the initial meeting, we were put at ease regarding the ability of Longueville Court to cope with mum's complex care needs. These needs have been met with knowledge, compassion, understanding and great care and professionalism. We get frequent updates on how she's doing, can visit anytime, can approach staff without hesitation to ask anything. Nothing is to much trouble at Longueville Court. To make sure mum is well her medical needs addressed and that she is happy and we are happy is something they work very hard to achieve here. The care she has received has surpassed anything we could have hoped for when it became apparent she needed nursing care. We would recommend Longueville Court highly to anyone."

"My Mum has been looked after here for the last 6 years. She has Alzheimer's and is 96. She has gradually deteriorated, and very sadly no longer knows me, or her other family members. When selecting this home I viewed 6 others and consider ourselves very lucky that we were able to get Mum in here. In my experience, no home is perfect, but Longueville Court is as close as you can get. In the early days Mum joined in with the activities, loved her meal times and the interaction with the staff, but she is very limited now and is cared for with dignity. She has extreme behaviour swings and can be very difficult, but the carers and nurses are wonderful with her. I visit weekly, and on different days and times, and the standard is consistently good. Since the Manager took over, I have noticed it has improved even more with every staff member doing an excellent job. Everyone involved in running this home deserves a massive pat on the back."

"I have visited my brother in law on Memory Lane for the past five years. For three years on a weekly basis and the past two years fortnightly. He joined when in the early stage of Alzheimer's and was very active and very good company. Now he is far down the line - does not communicate at all, does not leave his bed and has to be 'turned' regularly. In all this time his needs have been met and he has been treated with kindness and dignity under the outstanding management. I am a retired NHS nurse."

Every member of staff, including management, reception, nurses, carers and caretakers have always been extremely welcoming, helpful and informative resulting in what I feel is a real sense of homeliness for the residents. With the sad passing of my sister in law, everyone at the home has been overwhelmingly kind and supportive to her family and friends. I applaud the staff for their professionalism and thank them for their friendship at a difficult time."

"When I first needed a nursing home to take care of Mum, I visited 6 care homes including Longueville Court where I was pleasantly surprised at what I saw. Although I live close by to 4 other care homes within the Peterborough area, it became clear that there was something special about Longueville Court. Mum initially moved in for respite care, then becoming a full-time resident where she was safe, looked after and cared for by the wonderful nurses and carers within the 'Skylark' unit. She made new friends with other residents and enjoyed the entertainment that was made available to her. Sadly after 15 weeks, she passed away but the level of nursing care and support to me and my family at this incredibly sad time was beyond our expectations. I'm quite sure she was happy with her time there and I would like to acknowledge everyone who looked after her and nursed her to the end. Thank you so much!"

"My mother entered Longueville Court to receive end-of-life care expected to last 8-12 weeks. She received the most exemplary care possible from all staff members through what became her final 24 weeks. At one point, she likened the care to being in a hotel. I believe the very high level of care she received contributed to extended life, for which the family were extremely grateful. Her condition meant that eating was difficult but the staff usually found something she could manage. My mother was French and it was lovely to hear some of the multi-lingual staff talk to her in her native language and on one occasion, return from their holiday with local newspapers from her region of France. Nothing was too much trouble. As visitors, we were always made welcome, whenever we arrived. Longueville court is clean and odourless with good lounge facilities and although my mother was unable to take advantage of them, the recreational facilities and trips appeared extensive."

Since being in this home, my family have noticed several things that make this home stand out above others. The staff are always on hand. She showers daily and as my mother goes days without sleep, she also sleeps for a day or so, missing meals, but they have a special menu on hand for when she wants food. Sometimes she can eat for England. Well done to all who care for her."

"When my Nan was transferred from London to the Barchester in Peterborough last year we as a family did not know what to expect. When we first arrived the staff could not have been more caring and kind towards us and Nan. They made us all feel welcome even the great grandchildren, explaining the facilities available. We were able to personalise her room to make her feel more settled and safe in her surroundings as the move was confusing with Nan having Alzheimer's.The team looking after Nan treat her with kindness and patience and kept us fully informed on how she was each day. The home provides hair services etc and each day we arrived Nan was washed dressed and looking smart and presentable which was very important to her and unfortunately due to her Alzheimer's had been difficult for her to achieve when she was living at home. They were no restriction on visiting so we were able to spend lots of time at the home which was great until Nan passed away at the age of 89."

"Staff so a really good job of dealing with a number of elderly people with a range of illnesses - and with a smile. Activities encourage residents to join in with whatever takes place that day and if bed bound some go to when appropriate."

"I have been visiting Longueville Court every Wednesday for about 2 years. I visit 2 friends at the far end so I see most of the building and the employees inside. I have seen them at their best and at their worst in summer and in winter. The standard and quality is excellent. The manager's door is always open."

"My mother has lived at Longueville Court for 3 months and the standard of care is excellent. The staff are very friendly and always willing to do extra to make the residents feel happy. There is a very good choice of food and drink and a very varied activity programme to keep the residents occupied, including trips out. Visitors are always welcomed with a warm greeting from the receptionist, I would thoroughly recommend."

"I find all the staff are very good at doing what can at times be a very stressful job as some residents can be demanding, but the care to each resident is excellent and the training of staff is good for such a large range of illnesses they cope with. The food is very good and they cope well with all sorts of food allergies."

"After the first home Mum was in Longueville was heaven, you walk in and no nasty smells, anyone would think they had walked into a fantastic hotel, basically it was home from home, with a huge family added. Every single person employed from gardener up to Manager was a member. The care was wonderful and no-one could have been treated better from my point of view even with her problems. Mum loved it, appreciated all the hard work put in by everyone there. Sadly she passed recently, even the doctor and undertakers couldn't have been more caring at the end. She was treated with dignity by them and it was a peaceful end for her."

"Once again overwhelmed by the care and attention to detail and how well my relative is cared for. She could not be anywhere better and as a community nurse, I have always been able to find some fault with some care or some aspect of the home. This home is the only place I have ever been in that truly feels like a home I would want any of my family or myself to be cared for if needed."

"The home is brilliant. Care for my sister is excellent. They love looking after her. All staff are very professional from nurses, carers through to management, and everybody in between. This is the best home for her and much better than other homes I've seen. Could not ask for better."

"Right from our initial visit management and staff showed genuine concern and provided the highest quality support in both making arrangements and organising the transfer to the home. The home was very clean, well decorated with an abundance of facilities for residents to visitors alike. Staffing levels were high and all were helpful, kind and very supportive at all times of the day or night. We all felt that the support provided made mums last few days the best they could be under the circumstances. Nothing was too much trouble and for that I truly thank everyone at the home."

"I am writing this as the wife of my husband who, passed away yesterday after 4 and a half years as a resident of Longueville Court Care Home, Peterborough. My husband had the best of care in this lovely place, from the cleaners, the maintenance staff, the carers, the nurses, and the management, in fact everyone. He had such loving care and I can't praise them enough."

"The care shown by all staff including nurses has been excellent. They go the extra mile to make sure everyone is happy. The Kingfisher Unit is the specific area I am talking about. Staff are sometimes stretched to the limit (when they are always working hard and running around to get things done) which is unfair on them. They always had time to smile and say hello in passing to my mother but it would be great if all carer homes had a person to spend one hour a day with a resident to just talk, hold hand, be there, it makes all the difference."

"My partner was in hospital and we looked at almost all the nursing homes in Peterborough, and we were pleased when we were offered a place at Longueville Court. When we were shown around I was impressed by they number of staff around, and it has been my experience that there is always staff available. All the staff are pleasant and helpful, and they genuinely take an interest in her welfare. Many care homes reek of incontinence, but that is not the case at Longueville Court. There is a varied programme of activities including some talented outside acts. friends and relations are encouraged to visit and receive a warm welcome when they do so. My mother was a resident at another Peterborough nursing home and I soon realised that she was not getting the attention that was warranted, so it is a great relief that my partner is in an excellent home."

"I can honestly say, in my experience, this is the best care home I have ever visited and I am grateful for the care that they provided here for my grandmother. The staff are beyond amazing, their attitude and care toward residents is above and beyond expectation. My family was given the chance of another year with my nan because of the attentive, wonderful care of these people. She was comfortable, happy and relaxed in this care home and we were able to enjoy the last of our time with her here. I cannot praise and thank these lovely people enough, their brilliant balance of professionalism and the ability to treat patients and relatives as if they were their own family, sets them apart from any other home I have been to. There are no words to fully explain the work these people do here - they are angels. Thank you so much and I would highly recommend anybody considering using Longueville Court to go ahead and visit for themselves."

"My dad was a resident in Longueville Court, Memory Lane Community for 3 1/2 years. His care was 5 star. Every member of staff from admin, the gardener, cleaners and carers were wonderful. They looked after my dad so well and to myself after he passed away. Family is the word I would use to describe them all."

"This is a great care home. Everyone looks after my daughter very well and they have got to know her likes and dislikes. She is very happy here. All the staff know her, even from the other units and say hello to her when they see her. Everybody who works there makes it feel like a home from home and one big happy family."
