My mother has been at Field House for 2 years now. She has been very happy ever since she moved in, her mood improved dramatically after living on her own throughout the weeks, (coming to stay with us only at weekends) The staff are friendly & jolly, and encourageing my mother to get involved in the
many fun & interesting activities they provide constantly.
Reply from Paula Wiggan, Manager at Barchester Field House Care HomeThank you for your kind review, we enjoy Moms company and we also really look forward to your smile when you visit always uplifting the mood within the home.

I visit friends at least once a month and always find the staff helpful and approachable on every visit. My friends say how nice it is to live there now that they no longer can look after themselves. They say that the food is lovely and plenty of it. Drinks are provided on a regular basic along with
cake in the afternoon.
There are nice views out of the windows of surrounding countryside
Residents are taken out on occasion to events in the town
There are numerous activities if they wish to join in.
Overall it looks a clean happy place to live out your final years.

I visit the home at least once a week. I find my friends well looked after. Staff are lovely - all helpful & caring.
The food always looks amazing, with good choices & lots of home made cakes & biscuits - visitors often included!!
I always recommend The Wheatlands when I can.

I have visited my friend almost weekly and it has been a real joy to see her within weeks of moving there after a long spell of hospital stays; recovered, restored to her old self. She has been personally cared for in many way. Not just physically with nurses and food but made to laugh - known for who
she is. Each visit I have witnessed the carers happy smiley faces. It is small enough to behave as a family. Wonderful, and I and my husband are very thankful.
Reply from Paula Wiggan, Manager at Barchester Field House Care HomeThank you so much for your wonderful review, we love welcoming you into our home on your visits.
We look forward to the wonderful celebrations that we have planned in the very near future.

My gran absolutely loves it here & has just celebrated her 84th birthday where she felt so spoilt and loved. After loosing my grandad last year this is the very best place for her and we cannot recommend Paula and the girls enough!

The care provided to my mother by the entire team at Field House has been exceptional. Since moving in, she's been settled, well cared for, and all her needs fully met. She's become very sociable and enjoys a wide range of engaging activities that always give us plenty to talk about when we visit. The
food is excellent, with great choice and quality, and staff happily accommodate individual requests. My mother mentioned to the chef that she hadn't had a Queen of Puddings in years - he made one the next day, and she said it was delicious. Those thoughtful touches mean so much. All staff are friendly, polite, and attentive, and the home is immaculate and welcoming with lovely communal areas, especially the upstairs lounge. Communication is excellent, with staff keeping families fully informed. Paula and Stephanie lead the team superbly - they are a credit to Barchester.

Very good care and support for my mother over the last 12 months. Most impressed with the staff ratios including weekends, range of activities and quality of food and personal care. My mother has had some health challenges in this period which can be expected given her age but the staff have communicated
and assisted us in managing these. Many thanks to all involved

Mum needed to be urgently moved from another home to Hagley Place and this was done fast and with care. Hagley Place very good, as I have highlighted, we (the visitors) are treated like a family and are kept informed/updated of any change to Mums condition. I would just mention though, that in my opinion,
another member of staff is needed at certain times, especially at meal times.

I have only been here a few days but my initial impression is highly favourable. The staff are kind, caring and nothing is too much trouble for them. The food is good, tasty and well presented. The room is comfortable and for the first time in many months I have slept peacefully. I have no complaints
and would recommend Ottley House to anyone looking for R&R.

I have been visiting the Wheatlands, Much Wenlock for over a year and each time I have found, for over a year and time I have found everything wonderful ... lots of helpers, all of whom have been so caring and friendly, and the whole building has been so welcoming. I couldn't recommend it enough.

The staff have worked hard and built up my mothers confidence so that she feels calm here now. They really have the residents best interests at heart...and work hard to understand how best to help residents on an individual basis. Its been a long road so far this year but lovely to see my mother calmer
and happier than shes been for a long time.

I have stayed for respite care at Field House before & have always had a good experience there. The staff & management are friendly & helpful & because of its size the home always has a warm & welcoming feel. All the residents know each other & are encouraged to join in various group activities. The
staff work well together & for me personally I have found it to be "a home from home".

Thank you for taking care of my mum in the last 12 months of her life. Having care and support and the opportunity to make new friends was special for her. The care provided by the clinical nursing staff in her last few weeks was excellent. I was grateful for their kindness and empathy, especially during
her last few hours. Thank you so much.

The staff at the Mount House are superb. They are all so kind and caring and I couldn't ask for more looking after my father. He was at the Mount on respite and improved considerably. Everyone was so friendly and welcoming and put us at easy. There was always a wife range of activities and everyone
had a smile. They really tried to make Dad feel at home. Thank you.
