Donwell House Nursing Home

from J H (Friend of Resident) published on 15 August 2025
Overall Experience  Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5

As my friend, who is disabled, could no longer manage his day-to-day life in his own home, he went into Donwell House. I can see he is happier and more content. He has his own furniture in his room with personal things, which he likes, he is well looked after, which I am pleased to see. He has always
been a very independent man who got out and about in his electric vehicle chair when he lived alone, with the help of carers going in, so he is used to carers and accepts this is part of his life.

My friend went into Donwell House for respite but after 6 weeks knew he couldn't manage at home so decided to stay permanently. Now 8 months down the line he is settled in very nicely. He's very happy with everything, the staff are all very efficient, he loves all the activities. Everyone seems to go
the extra mile for all the residents. He is very happy with his choice and I have peace of mind knowing he is getting looked after.

My friend was admitted into hospital, he was told he needed to have respite, after being in Donwell House he realised he would not be able to cope at home, he stayed in the home where he said he loved being here as the meals are good, plenty of activities to do and the lovely staff are at hand to give
him support. My friend has always been a very private person, and the staff here have given him a new lease of life.

Residents are well cared for in a very clean environment. Staff are dedicated and are caring in their roles. There are activities everyday and all residents are included regardless of their capabilities. Meals are nutritious and varied giving residents choice of alternatives. I would recommend this
care home to anyone looking for a place for their loved one.

After recently visiting a dear friend at your home, I was truly overjoyed to see how well he is being cared for. He looked so well and genuinely happy, which warmed my heart.
The home itself is beautiful-clean, spacious, and pleasantly fragrant. From the moment I arrived, I was struck by the welcoming
atmosphere. The staff were all smiles and incredibly kind, creating a lovely, comforting environment.
It was such a wonderful feeling being there, and I was thoroughly impressed by how caring and attentive everyone was. To the whole team: please keep doing what you're doing. It's clearly making a difference-it shows in the residents' faces.
From the bottom of my heart, thank you for taking such good care of my dear friend.

Having a parent moved to a care home is not a decision that is easy to make. Having no real alternative I am relieved and delighted that we chose Donwell House.The staff could not be nicer this is endorsed by my mum too. I finally realise how much of a strain it was on my closest family members, I trying
to keep mum in her own home. She is so much safer than when carers visited 4 times a day. So pleased we chose Donwell House.

My mum in law has been at Donwell House since December 2024 when she was no longer safe to return home after a hospital stay. She has settled in well, loves the food, the staff and company. She is doing as well as can be expected - at 91 years young. Yesterday she took a "funny turn" in the bathroom
when a family member was present. Previously (at home) this would have resulted to me how professional competent caring the staff were. No less than five staff reacted to the emergency buzzer. Money could not buy better peace of mind. Our relative is happy and safe. We are really reassured that she is in the best place.

Our first contact with the care home was under emergency circumstances, taking our mother-in-law at short notice. On a number of different occasions and each time, we felt she was treated with kindness and respect. Communication between the care home and ourselves was amazing. Daily activities and trips
keep her very engaged during all her stays. We have been very pleased with all their services and the kindness of all the staff. Thank you for everything.

My mum spent her last weeks at Allan Court where the care she received was exemplary. Every member of staff was friendly professional and approachable. Not only did they support and care for my mum they also looked after us as a family and made a very difficult time easier to cope with. My mum passed
away peacefully surrounded by her family and the staff at Allan Court made this possible. I spent a considerable amount of time at my mum's bedside and I witnessed the day-to-day running of the home. Each and every resident was treated with care and respect. I cannot praise the staff at Allan Court enough.

My aunt has been a resident since March 2024 and her physical and mental improvement has been remarkable. Staff are always very welcoming and I have personally witnessed their caring, attentive attitudes towards residents. My aunt enjoys her food, stating 'You always get a good meal'. I would have no
hesitation in recommending Allan Court as a care choice.

Just to say that Alan Court is lucky to have the staff member who makes sure the rooms and rest of the home are immaculate. Nothing is a bother to him. Anything you want help with he's there. He's a lovely person that you can have banter with. Also one of the nurses looks after our mam brilliantly.
She knows when my mam in room 6 isn't herself and gets the doctor out if necessary as mam won't tell the carers as she always says they have enough to do without her bothering them. I know it's their job but I want them to know they are greatly appreciated as well as all other staff.
