Pros

Lovely apartment. Other residents friendly - make our won fun.

Cons

Manager has no back up even when on leave. [It appears there is] no interest in residents (independent living). eds.

Suggestions to Management or General Comment

Our manager was wonderful at arranging events but does not do so since new 50 apartment residence completed - selling new ones before arranging refurbishment of old ones.

Pros

Building is clean and tidy Facility is kept very warm Clothing is washed well and kept in good order Food generally varied and hot

Cons

Take a long time to respond to call bells - 15 minutes, 11 minutes A lot of changes in staff - including management Systemic problems in how the place works, - do not appear to work as a cohesive team, families are not kept informed sufficiently on matters surround their loved ones

Suggestions to Management or General Comment

A systemic overhaul needs to take place, staff need to follow policies and families need to be kept informed of changes in their family members care. All the positive quotes in the world at the entrance mean nothing if the staff looking after people don't work as a cohesive team and respect and care about their charges. Sadly a lot of them working at BUPA Fergusson appear not to. Management are not aware of what happens on a daily basis in the care of patients and residents.
