My mother has settled into Redcot very quickly. We can see she is being well cared for and safe. She very much enjoys the meals and activities they have daily. All staff members care kind and thoughtful and already now her every need. The family are very grateful for the care and attention she receives
here.

My relative came for a period of respite after being in hospital following a house fire. He arrived with virtually no belongings whilst we were trying to sort things out. The staff + management went above + beyond throughout his stay. They were supportive of myself too, as well as him, throughout the
entire stay. I cannot thank the team enough for everything. They made a very traumatic time so much better. Side note am told bed was comfy + food/coffee/cake were great!
Reply from Andy Cumper, Manager at The Bernard Sunley Nursing and Dementia Care HomeThank you for the lovely review. I hope he has settled into his new house now. Many thanks

My mother has been here for 3 years. I have a good relationship with the staff who always keep me updated either by phone or email depending on the circumstances.
When visiting we are always made to feel welcome by all staff which is very much appreciated. My mother who has Alzheimers also says
how well staff look after her including the food.
Whilst it doesn't affect the star rating there is sometimes an issue with parking but there is a free car park 500 yards away.

My mother has been a resident for 2 years and has never regretted it .The Homely atmosphere and
friendly and caring staff make it an enjoyable experience.
She loves the activities, especially any that involve singing, and joins in all the outings possible.
The family are reassured that she is well
looked after and any individual needs/requests are catered for.

My mother has been at Redcot since November 2022. She does now refer to Redcot as home which indicates how well she regards being there. She always praise the staff for being helpful and cheerful and enjoys the atmosphere with many opportunities for the residents to meet and share activities and outings.
I would thoroughly recommend Redcot to anyone needing a caring environment to live in.

Thank you so much for the care, affection you gave to my husband. The welcome we just received on our arrival was so welcoming, smiles making my husband feel he would be well looked after. The staff always greeted warmly. His bedroom was just great, overlooking the gardens and a lovely print of a river
over his bed. He was a great fisherman, and loved the garden. Thank you all so much.
Reply from Andy Cumper, Manager at The Bernard Sunley Nursing and Dementia Care HomeThank you for your lovely review, it is greatly appreciated. Please remember you will always be welcome here to pop in and join our coffee mornings and activities, or just to sit and have a chat. Take care.

I was reluctant to put my father into a care home; however, since he's been a Redcot, he has flourished. The staff and management are superb, caring and supremely professional, lovely atmosphere. All the residents seem happy, grub's good

We thank the Bradbury Day Centre Staff from the bottom of our hearts for all the great care they have given to both mum and dad over the years, it has been such a big part of their lives attending the Day Centre and has always been so reassuring knowing that whilst they were in the care of the Bradbury
Day centre staff they would be well looked after, having fun, being well entertained and being fed and watered. Would highly recommend.
Reply from Francesca Simpson, Service Manager at Friends of the Elderly Woking Day CareThank you for taking the time to review Woking Day Care. We are very pleased to receive such a positive review. It been a privilege to support both mum and dad over the years and we look forward to seeing mum out a Christmas party. Wishing you all the very best.

I stayed in Bernard Sunley Home for four days. This was respite care to allow my wife to go on a short break. I was very impressed by the home. It is well-run, and the staff all seemed friendly, caring, and interested in me. They were all very helpful whenever I had any special requests or needs. I
would have no hesitation in staying at Bernard Sunley again and would recommend it to others too.

Although it was only the briefest of stays, the kindness of the staff was so wonderful. In a stressful "end of life" scenario, they helped our situation, and we will always be truly thankful.

Fantastic end of life care with a totally beautiful prayer for my mum after she had died.
This was such a genuine moment from a wonderful nurse.
Can't recommend enough.

From the very first day my wife moved into the home, everyone at Bernard Sunley has given the most extraordinary level of loving care and dedication to make sure she felt at home. Every aspect of the home from the various lounges, the food, the entertainment and activities were outstanding. Having
been my wife's full-time carer for sometime, my daughters and I were very apprehensive in giving that responsibility to strangers but Bernard Sunley widely exceeded our expectations and created a warm, friendly and home-from-home environment that gave my wife the dignity and love that was so important to us.
In the very stressful last few days my wife was with us, it is difficult to describe how magnificent everyone was to all the family. It really felt as though everyone was part of one big family.
No one wants their loved one to go into a care home but if that becomes inevitable, I cannot praise Bernard Sunley highly enough and would recommend them without reservation.
Reply from Andy Cumper, Manager at The Bernard Sunley Nursing and Dementia Care HomeThank you for this amazing review, it is really appreciated by myself and all the team.

My mother has been a resident since July 2023. All the staff have always been excellent however when my mother sadly passed away in February, they went above and beyond. They were all so caring and kind. Myself, my sister and my father all felt so cared for and the love they showed towards my late mother
was so touching. Words can't express our appreciation. Thank you.
Reply from Andy Cumper, Manager at The Bernard Sunley Nursing and Dementia Care HomeThank you for your lovely review, it is much appreciated. Please make sure Dad is not a stranger... I will always have a cuppa and his cake ready!

As a family we had to find a respite home that suited our Dad who had been very poorly in hospital. A viewing was completed and we felt this was the home we would place Dad in, as we were confident he would thrive.
All the staff were very welcoming and hard working. Dad settled in very quickly and
enjoyed all aspects of his three week stay at Redcot.
He had a lovely room that looked out onto the South Downs, he loved the view. The food was amazing and the staff were so friendly and the activities were great for Dad to participate in, especially the singing.
Redcot offer a day visit, which is a brilliant idea and we will definitely use the service.
Thank you to all at Redcot for your care and attention.
Reply from Staci Abernethy, Home Manager at Redcot Residential Care HomeThank you for your review, I will pass your comments on to the staff. I'm so pleased dad enjoyed his stay with us and we hope to see him soon.

My mum received palliative care at The Bernard Sunley Nursing and Dementia Care Home at the end of her life. It was excellent and across all areas, nursing, nutrition and housekeeping. All staff were welcoming to her and the family, being responsive and communicating any changes, seeking permissions
when needed. At the end of her life, Mum was treated with kindness, care and compassion. Thank you.
Reply from Andy Cumper, Manager at The Bernard Sunley Nursing and Dementia Care HomeThank you for the lovely review. Mum was a character that will be missed here.

The whole team at Redcott are great, my mother has been a resident for over 12 months. During that time she has been so well cared for. The new Manager is a fantastic professional and without doubt, Redcot is in great hands and the high levels of care will continue. We know my mother is in the the right
place with the right people. Key to the success of Redcot and a perfect indicator of any well-run organisation is the fact that staff turnover is minimal.

Mum has been a resident for just over one year. The staff are very caring and friendly and Mum feels as though she is in a comfortable home rather than an impersonal hotel. She is encouraged to join in the multiple activities which keep her entertained and adds stimulation to her failing memory. We
are very pleased she chose this home when living alone became lonely and too much for her.
Reply from Staci Abernethy, Interim Manager at Redcot Residential Care HomeThank you for taking the time to write a review, I will pass your comments on to the staff. I am so pleased to hear that your mum feels this way.
