Review of Roden Hall Care Home with Nursing
I am writing this comment on behalf of my wife who is unable to make an informed assessment. However, she was able to say that her two week respite stay was very happy for her, and coupled with my own observations whilst visiting, I confirm the excellent ratings below. The staff were very caring and helpful. I would recommend the home to anyone needing good quality nursing care.

Review of Roden Hall Care Home with Nursing
Mum finds the staff very friendly. She enjoys the food, as they will do her jacket potato with cheese instead of meals on the menu. She just wishes her room was a bit bigger.

Review of Roden Hall Care Home with Nursing
Before selecting Roden Hall I spoke to a number of relatives of residents and former residents. Their comments about care were positive. I was not disappointed. My mother has been very happy and has a great rapport with truly caring staff. Visits are like going to a family home. Thoroughly recommended.

Review of Roden Hall Care Home with Nursing
Excellent care home for my husband (stroke victim) - totally dependent - on the care and nursing provided. Staff are welcoming to me and lovely with Joe, who needs kindness and understanding. I looked after him for 8 years and now feel that he is in safe hands and a pleasant environment. He thinks it is a nice hotel! Which is a relief to me.

Review of Roden Hall Care Home with Nursing
My uncle has been in this home for 2 years. He is well looked after, seems happy, he says the food is good, some food he dislikes, he is able to order food he prefers, his day revolves around meal times and food, it is important he is able to choose. The room is kept clean, it is furnished to a high standard but it is value for money. The home in general is well kept, inside is clean and warm. There is no odour as there can be in some homes. The staff are friendly and he likes them.

Review of Roden Hall Care Home with Nursing
Friendly caring staff, the core of which has remained the same during the 5 years my mother-in-law has been resident. In my opinion a good sign if the staff are (give or take 1 or 2) still the same.
