Waterfield House

from G C (Daughter-in-law of Resident) published on 19 June 2026 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother was treated with dignity and respect from the moment she was welcomed into Waterfield House. The manager and her team were very professional all the time with my mother's care and needs. The care team were hard working and friendly. Nothing was too much to assist us as a family in every way.
The nurses were very competent and professional and were helpful at all times, giving 24-hour care.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I am very pleased that my sister-in-law is in Waterfield House, Hagleigh, Suffolk. I have been up to see her, and it was amazing to see her so happy and looking so well because it's been a long time since I have seen her looking so blooming, and the staff are so good to her. I know she has got dementia,
but she is so happy there, and it's a relief for me not to worry about her and I did in the first place, because I am 91 years old and it's lovely to know that she is happy.

The great thing about WH is the atmosphere - the staff are unfailingly kind, but above all cheerful, and seem only too happy to support my mother's needs. They are also a great help with her dog, who is vital to her well-being. I feel my mother is in a safe and happy place, and the staff treat her like
she is a friend.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mum came to Waterfield House (dementia unit) directly from hospital in October after suffering a fall at her previous care home. Katie was incredibly helpful with the move and eased any concerns I had from the very beginning.
The rooms are beautiful, spacious, and homely, with en-suite facilities.
The staff are genuinely kind, have a real understanding of how to communicate with residents living with dementia, and provide excellent care. My mum has settled in really well, which gives me great peace of mind.
I only wish we had found Waterfield House sooner.
Reply from Katie Relph, Customer Relations Manager at Waterfield HouseThank you for taking the time to share such a thoughtful and generous review. At Waterfield House, we take great pride in delivering exceptional care and support from initial enquiry through to admission, and we are delighted to hear that Mum has settled in so well. Your kind words truly reflect our ethos and the dedication of our team, and they are greatly appreciated.

My sister has recently moved in and is enjoying her stay. Staff are great and helpful. She tell me what she been up to in the day with a planner they have. Safe clean and beautiful run place. They have large normal rooms and apartments to chose from. Lovely outside gardens for the summer warmer months.
So glad my sister is happy here.

My dad has recently been moved to Waterfield House.
Within 2 weeks, I have noticed a difference. He is no longer bedridden like he was in the other home, and he is enjoying food again.
Waterfield House is very welcoming/clean, and the staff who I've met are lovely.
I hope my dad really thrives here
as he deserves it.
Reply from Jane Brown, Home Manager at Waterfield HouseThank you for taking the time to complete a review, it really is appreciated.

I am very happy that you have found the home welcoming and clean with lovely staff. Kindest Regards

My dad got to go to this lovely care home 2 weeks ago. I was so happy for him. When me and my sister visited him, the staff were so lovely and friendly. The place is amazing, looks like a hotel, not a care home, very posh and looks great in the rooms and reception rooms. People are very friendly & nice.
I think my dad will be happy with this one. The staff who look after him are great. Thank you very much for everything you all do. xxx

After suffering a stroke and spending 7 weeks in hospital my 92-year-old father came to reside at Waterfield House. Unfortunately his stay was to be far shorter than we had anticipated, however, for the short period of his stay he was always treated with kindness, courtesy and compassion. The carers
were unfailingly helpful and considerate to Dad's needs. Had Dad been more able I'm sure he would have enjoyed and participated in the various activities on offer, my sister and I were impressed with the activity team who always seemed to be organising something for the residents.
Reply from Allison Squires, Home Manager at Waterfield HouseThank you for your kind words, I will share with the team. It is a shame we only had your Dad with us for a short time.

My dear mum was at Waterfield House for a year and eight months until she sadly passed away in July. The care my mum received was amazing.

Overall Experience 3.0 out of 5
My mum has been at Waterfield House for 2 years now and overall I’ve been very happy. But over the last 6 months, I feel something has gone wrong and feel quite frustrated and let down! The decor upstairs is very poor and in my opinion, is not Dementia friendly! I feel the home is very short staffed
and the staff are pushed to their limits. I visit my mum every other day and if I didn’t go, I know for sure that she wouldn’t be eaten probably! As there is never enough staff to sit and encourage mum to eat. And her personal needs are not always met, and on many occasions, I’ve had to deal with it myself.
There is nowhere upstairs that I feel is a nice place to sit with mum to have a chat and cuppa. I always take mum downstairs to the cafe, but sometimes that’s not always possible as activities are taking place. In my personal view, some parts of the upstairs feel like it’s God's waiting room!

Both my parents are residents in a flat in Waterfield House. They both have complex needs. They are extremely well looked after, carers are kind, supportive and helpful. Their flat and Waterfield House are kept clean on a daily basis and the garden is always looked after and is an appealing place to
sit on warm days. Activities are inclusive and well run with residents enjoying them. Senior staff and managers are informed, always approachable and put themselves out to liaise with relatives and residents.

Overall I'm happy with my Mum's care - the staff are kind and caring. However, I feel that there may be a shortage of staff at present. I feel Mum's dignity is compromised when I see her in the sitting room with food all down her front; the simple act of putting an apron/ bib on her would solve the
problem. This has already been raised with staff.

My mother has only recently gone into Waterfield House, with a view to remaining for as long as possible. On our first visit, we were met by the Customer Relations Manager, who immediately made us feel very welcome and relaxed. We had a leisurely tour of the home, so nice not to have been rushed around.
All our queries/worries were well explained and we were introduced to various staff that were on duty that day. I have since been (unannounced) to visit my mother, she looked very well, her clothes clean and had even seen the hairdresser. Her room was immaculately clean and tidy. Waterfield House is a lovely modern, airy home and nothing seems too much for any of the staff, no matter what you request. I feel very pleased that my mother is in such a caring home.
Reply from Lindsey Fletcher, Customer Relationship Manager at Waterfield HouseThank you so much from all of us at Waterfield House for your amazing review. You have put into words exactly what we have to offer to all residents, family, relatives and friends who visit and what we provide to prospective residents who may be thinking about coming to Waterfield House Care Home for care in the future.

Mum has settled well in Waterfield House, making new friends, and building relationships with the staff and we as a team always go above and beyond to make sure all our residents receive the best care.
Thank you again for your kind words.

Mum has now been living in Waterfield House for over 5 years and is very happy there. Mum hasn't been well lately and it is really nice to see how caring all of the staff are. Nothing is too much trouble for them. They are always approachable and genuinely seem to care. As a family, we are really pleased
with the care given at Waterfield and would thoroughly recommend it.
Reply from Lindsey Fletcher, Customer Relationship Manager at Waterfield HouseThank you so much for your kind words and for taking the time to complete a review for us, it really is appreciated.

I'll be sure to pass your kind words on to the team.

My mother was a resident at Waterfield House from 2015 until she died aged a hundred in January 2023. Throughout those years she was well cared for and every time anyone from our family visited we were always made to feel very welcome. I used to visit every week so got to know the regular staff well.
They were always very approachable and helpful. The care and attention they gave to my mother, who was not mobile and suffered from vascular dementia, was excellent. Whenever she was unwell they quickly contacted the local health centre for advice or arranged a visit from a medical professional. Our family has no hesitation in recommending Waterfield House as a place where your loved one will be well cared for and would like to thank all the staff for keeping our mother happy and comfortable.
Reply from Amanda Thackery, Home Manager at Waterfield HouseHi Carole,
Thank you for your lovely comments and feedback. It was a pleasure to care for your mother. We will be sure to pass your kind words on to the wider team.

Since moving into Waterfield House Care Home in October 2021 my mother has had a new lease of life.
Despite her difficulties with motor skills and communication at times (she has Anomic dysphasia) she loves being there and involves herself in the fantastic activities that have stimulated her. She
is happy, well looked after and cared for. Waterfield House has a lovely atmosphere throughout.

Managers and all staff are helpful and caring.
The building and facilities are good.
There are not enough care staff and they are not paid enough. Staff retention seems to be decreasing. This is causing my mother stress. She is meeting agency staff that she has never seen before.
She said to
me yesterday, 'I feel like just a number'.
I appreciate and confirm that the care home managers and staff are doing the very best that they can but wish that the company would put more financial investment into staff numbers and retention.
