Holmwood Care Centre

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My father-in-law came to stay with you for just one week prior to his death.
Words cannot express the kindness, compassion and understanding with which we were met. It had become very difficult to care for Dad at home and meet all his needs. The care was at such a higher level in Holmwood than we were
able to offer at home.
Thank you, from all his family, for everything.
Reply from Nicole Howarth, on behalf of the team at Holmwood Care CentreThank you for taking the time to leave us such a kind review. We're truly sorry for your loss, it was a privilege for us to care for your father-in-law during his time at Holmwood. We're so glad to know that our team's care and compassion brought comfort to him and your family. Please accept our sincere condolences from everyone here at Holmwood.

My mother was recently taken ill on a bank holiday. The staff on duty acted immediately, taking observations and calling for a doctor with no hesitation, at all times, they were very professional and showed great care to myself and my brother, who were present at the time. This kindness was shown by
all members of staff at all levels, but particularly nurse Vernilla and nurse Carol. Thank you.

A particular lady has been a fantastic asset to Holmwood and I honestly think she should stay managing the home. She has worked hard to turn the home around and add lots of positive things making it a better experience for both residents and families who visit. Since she has been at the home she has
got new cups, new menus, employed more staff (which the home needed) supported myself and reassured me that my mother is okay and she ensures her residents are well looked after by being present on the floor so she can see what is happening within the home. Yesterday she was out of her office encouraging residents with their food and making them extra cups of teas. For me this is going above and beyond in your already existing job role in managing a home.Thank you to this lady for all that you have done. It's much appreciated.
Reply from Nicole Howarth, on behalf of the team at Holmwood Care CentreThank you for your positive review. We're so pleased to hear that our colleague's dedication has made such a positive difference to both your experience and your mother's care at Holmwood. Our team works hard to create a welcoming and supportive environment for both residents and their loved ones, so your words mean a lot. Your wonderful comments have been passed on to the team, who will be delighted to hear your feedback.

My relative has been with Holmwood for two and a half years, she loves it!
You will often hear her say, " I love my room", and she is so happy there that after an hour, hour and a half she asks how she can get back, when out visiting anywhere.
There had been a few issues this year, but that has altered
in the last three weeks since the regional manager has come to support the home, there has been an improvement all round.

Thank you so much for the wonderful care provided to our Dad at the end of his life. He was only with you a short time however his and our experience was of kindness, professionalism and respect. This means so much at a very difficult time for our family, knowing that we did our best by placing our
trust in your care.
I thank you for your responsiveness prior to us selecting Holmwood and to the Deputy Manager, for answering my queries with knowledge and candour. You and your team did not let us down.
Everyone was so helpful and nothing was too much trouble. The dignity afforded at the end of Dad's life made a difficult time more bearable.

Overall the care is very good... but communication between some staff and residents is very poor... a language barrier, a lot of the nursing staff can't or don't speak English making life very difficult for lots of people.

After my husband being in a couple of homes prior to Holmwood he is finally settled and is a lot happier but also for the family we feel relieved knowing my husband is in a better home. The staff are very friendly, helpful and considerate. We are always kept informed about my husband if he is ill, or
has a doctor to visit him. On the whole we are very pleased with the care given to my husband.

Mum has been a resident at Holmwood for over 12 months. She has settled in very well and is happy. She tells me often how lovely the staff are and how well they treat her. Mum now eats well and says the food is excellent. She eats much better now than when she was living in her own home.
Mum takes
part in various activities and enjoys having her hair done.
It is great peace of mind to know Mum is being so well cared for! Thanks to all staff!

Holmwood Care Centre took lovely care of my uncle. All of the nurses made him smile even on the last few days of his life. He was always smart, clean, tidy and content whenever we visited. The nurses always made time for him and we could all tell that he was comfortable there. The home was spotlessly
clean and the nurses were always available to answer any questions.
Reply from Sydney Lyttleton, Marketing Assistant at Holmwood Care CentreWe appreciate your feedback about Holmwood Care Centre and the care provided to your uncle. It's heartening to hear that the nurses were able to make him smile even in his final days. The smart, clean, and tidy appearance, along with his contentment during your visits, are important indicators of the quality of care. The cleanliness of the home and the nurses' availability to answer questions are commendable. Thank you for sharing your positive experience.

I attend the home on a weekly basis to provide routine foot care to most of the service users. I worked here many years ago as a nurse and was pleased to be asked to return in my new role.
The staff are always welcoming, friendly and approachable. The care I see given is excellent. Everyone goes above
and beyond to ensure that the service users are happy and motivated.
They work as a team but also seem to be like one big happy family. From the domestics, to the care staff, cooks and activity ladies, nurses and management, they all have the service users right at the heart of all they do.
Keep doing what you do.
Reply from Sydney Lyttleton, Marketing Assistant at Holmwood Care CentreWe're truly grateful for your dedicated service at Holmwood Care Centre and for sharing your positive perspective. Your observations of the welcoming, friendly, and approachable staff are heartwarming. It's wonderful to hear that you've witnessed excellent care and the team's commitment to ensuring the service users' happiness and motivation. The sense of unity and a big happy family is a testament to the collaborative and compassionate spirit of everyone at the home. Thank you for being an integral part of this community, and we'll certainly continue our commitment to providing exceptional care.

I have been in Holmwood Care Centre for 12 weeks. The room is satisfactory, the food is acceptable and nothing appears too much trouble for the staff. I feel cared for and safe, and that the patient's interests are uppermost. As a result, I can say I'm generally happy with all aspects of this home and
my care.

Holmwood has had its ups and downs. However, after the previous manager has returned, thins are greatly improved. Staff and residents are happy, and visitors are made very welcome. I have a strong relationship with the staff, who go above and beyond to keep me updated with my mother's health and well-being.
I have no reservations in recommending Holmwood.

Holmwood is a good establishment with all staff doing a good job. They are pleasant to visitors, efficient in their tasks, keep rooms and corridors etc clean and hazard-free. They have followed Covid protocols to a high standard; they pay close attention to resident's needs. They are extremely pleasant
and amenable to visitors. They go the extra mile to ensure special occasions are memorable to all concerned. No one is perfect, but I am satisfied with the staff and the centre itself.
