Everything about prospect is amazing. The staff, are so caring and so cheerful. To be honest putting your parent or loved one into a nursing home is mentally hard. But when I moved my father to prospect from the nursing home he was in. We noticed a difference in the first few hours. My father used to have us sit twice a day for over an hour cause… he was scared. Now in prospect we are lucky if he gives us 5 mins every night. I do believe he flirts with the girls and poor Israel gets bossed about with him. Erin is his favourite girl lol. Malachy is the Boss according to daddy lol. Staff all

The staff at Prospect are exceptional-they cared for both my parents on separate occasions-gave my dad end of life care which was respectful and very peaceful. Mum received respite care then very shortly after dad’s death and it was very different in that she was reassured, supported and encouraged by the same staff in a different way. Unfortunately she died shortly after but all the staff in Prospect went out of their way to work with our family supporting us too in our grief during this time and also now with our memories afterwards.

Just collected my dad after his 4 weeks of respite care in Prospect private nursing home. He was so well looked after & all the staff were so good to him. It was so lovely to see the care and love he was shown. We really appreciate such a caring, friendly home. Home from home!! Tim & Rhoda.

The tea party to celebrate the Queen's 90th birthday was yet another winner for Prospect!! It was just so lovely to see residents sing, smile, clap and even dance to the old time music - it brought tears to… many eyes. The entertainment was followed by tea, scones, sandwiches, buns and even birthday cake - yummy!! The afternoon was a true reflection of how hard the staff work and how dedicated they are in providing for the residents in such a caring manner. This is what Prospect is all about and why our loved ones are safe and happy in such an environment. Well done everyone!!
