My mother has been in Fernbank since May this year and I can not praise this home enough. My mum has improved in so many ways I am delighted with the care and support she receives and also the feedback on my mother's ongoing care. The food is amazing, and there are so many activities to occupy the residents. The staff are friendly and I am so impressed with the level of attention from all levels of staff. I would recommend this home to anyone. Well done Fernbank and South Coast Nursing Homes.

I have received the best of care at Fernbank. The staff have treated me with respect at all times and my health both physically and mentally has improved enormously.

Patricia T (Resident)19 Jan 2024

Right from the first contact on the telephone, I was treated with consideration and care.
The staff are wonderful, nothing is too much trouble. Attractive surroundings and very clean. Good food, coffee, tea and biscuits or cake are served during the day. Entertainment provided and walks arranged with a member of staff to accompany. During my month's stay, I was able to see their doctor and get my pain under control and get walking again. I would not hesitate to recommend this home.

A huge thank you to everyone at Fernbank for putting on such a great Christmas party - thanks for all the hard work put in by all. It was so lovely to see Mum having such fun, and the video of her joining in the singing and dancing with her grandson has brought much joy to our family - we made a very special memory yesterday. Thanks once more too for everything you’ve done for Mum this year - it’s been up and down, as you know. But Mum couldn’t be in a kinder, more supportive place and we are all really appreciative of that.
