five days. This meant the world to us as a family as she was finally somewhere where she felt safe. Every single one of the staff at Hawthorns are amazing and do an incredibly tough job with kindness and sensitivity.
We are so very lucky that mum lives there amongst amazing caring people.
Thank you so much for everything you do at Hawthorns...we appreciate you..xxx

compassion, humour and patience with my Dad but were equally respectful can thoroughly caring throughout. My Dad passed away this month. The care the team showed to my Dad and myself was immeasurable and I will be forever grateful.
Thank you to the entire team at the Hawthorns for what you did for my dear Dad and for looking out for me and my family also.

are quick to respond to all requests and full of smiles too, you made a very difficult time, easier to bear. We always knew Dad was safe with you, you answered our questions immediately and with kindness. Thank you so much.

of The Hawthorns, you become part of one big family. I am convinced the home provided my relative with 2 extra happy years than she would have had

the visit.
My overall impression is that there are lots of staff - I never felt I was wandering the corridors looking for someone to ask questions or talk to, and they were unfailingly cheerful and positive.
Mum spent 5 months at The Hawthorns, sadly passing away recently, but the care, patience, love and respect all the staff gave her was exemplary. She was consistently treated with great dignity and it made all the difference.
The end-of-life care was gentle and supportive, both for Mum and for us - and we were able to stay with her for her final few days, which means the world.
I cannot begin to thank the staff enough for the care they gave Mum at this difficult stage of her life.

be using , we immediately felt good about the home.
My husband spent 4 months in the home and I cannot speak highly enough on the care and kindness given to him.
My husband sadly passed away in the home and the nursing staff contacted us at midnight to say that he was poorly , we sat with him while the staff brought in recliner chairs for our comfort offering refreshments. The entertainment is first class including at Easter when they had 5 duck eggs which hatched and then brought into each room in the incubator for residents to see the ducklings
All the staff in this home should be really proud of the way they look after the residents who can be very difficult due to their dementia

dementia but the staff continue to involve her in her care, activities and choices. We as a family are always made to feel welcome and able to discuss any concerns. The Hawthorns is a friendly, caring and a very clean environment. There is a fantastic entertainment team encouraging residents to participate in activities, listening to live music and organising tea and coffee mornings. There is always staff present to support residents and from observation the food always looks good and different choices available. I cannot say how pleased we are to have found the Hawthorns.

soon became our second home and the staff, our extended family. Mum was happy there and she was cared for with kindness and compassion. As a family, we have so many wonderful, precious, memories of Mum's time at Hawthorns.
The manager's door was always open and if we ever had any concerns (rarely!) we could always speak to him, or his team.
During the last few days of Mum's life, the manager, his deputy and the staff could not have been kinder. Mum was treated with dignity and such incredible care and, as a family, we felt loved and supported, as the team gently guided us through those last few days.
We will be forever thankful to them all.

its staff have thankfully made this seem OK. They have taken such phenomenal care of not just Nan but of all of our family the entire time. Nan was treated with such dignity and care, we felt like everyone at The Hawthorns had taken the time to get to know her and were clearly very fond of her. Every one of my family, from my parents down to our youngest children, was always made to feel extremely welcome and every member of staff has grown to feel like an extended family. This last week has been incredibly tough but the compassion and hospitality that we were shown made it all so much easier to deal with. I couldn't thank the staff highly enough and will miss them all dearly. Thank you.

very well with my wife's. The care she receives from the staff is excellent, her communication is very difficult to understand but with the professionalism of the caring staff they manage very well. I find the management very professional, understanding, friendly and very obliging in any information you ask them. I as her husband don't like to see my wife in care but with the wonderful care, attention, and dignity that is provided by the whole of the staff I know that I have made the right choice.

on board and gradually gained her trust. Their patience is unending, and they know when to cajole and when to let her simmer down. Nursing my sister can't have been easy for them, and sometimes it must have been very concerning. Their liaison with the local GP is particularly good, as is their attention to her day-to-day health. In the last three weeks, she has calmed down amazingly. She is eating and drinking and accepting her meds. She is interacting well with staff, and taking much more interest in life, people, and events. Her paranoia has reduced massively. She was appreciative when lent a CD player (likes classical music), and a screen on which she can watch wildlife programmes.

been as consistent as I could have hoped for.
Quality of her care was my first priority and as her son and attorney, I've found the friendliness, understanding of her condition and communication of all staff, particularly the nurses and attending GP and other medical professionals, resident-centred and excellent. I have never felt concern for my mum's safety, comfort or dignity and have always been able to talk with someone when I've needed to.
Let's be clear nobody wants to find their loved ones with illness or other considerations that require the service they provide at Hawthorns despite their professionalism, but in the event, I can say I'm glad my mum was in their care until the end.

and care team are all welcoming and approachable. I've been kept informed of everything that goes on behind the scenes too, which is a comfort to my family. The stress we all felt has definitely been lifted, especially for my mum who was caring for Dad. Dad always looks clean and well-dressed, and I feel his needs are being met. Staff go above and beyond keeping him safe, well and happy!

upon swiftly and all the staff were very approachable. I never worried about Mum being in their care.
They supported me too as it became difficult to see Mum deteriorate. They are wonderful, well trained carers and perform the most vital work at the end of a person's life. I thank them from my heart and would recommend this home for anyone thinking of placing their loved one into care.

the day.
Prior to moving into the home, we had several discussions with the Manager who was so kind and understanding, he let us get the room ready for my father prior to his arrival so my father had his own things around him which helped him settle.
The manager and his staff could not be more caring, helpful and compassionate. This is a lovely care home with good-sized rooms and lovely residential and dining rooms.
I would recommend this to anyone wanting care for a loved one as you can be assured they will be well looked after and cared for.
