The Care Home is an old house but very clean with no offensive smells. The staff are always welcoming when I visit my sister.
Unfortunately her room is on the 3rd floor and her accessed by a lift (or stairs which due to her condition she is unable to use). She prefers to stay in her room for most of
her time because every other resident has Dementia, at present. I am hopeful her life will change for the better is she is able to have a ground floor room a.s.a.p.

After a hospital stay, a year ago I had five weeks respite in College Fields which was my first experience at respite. Right at that time of entering I was made very welcome. Everyone was so friendly. A year later I've had another very enjoyable three week stay at College Fields and from my arrival.
I had a really nice time with them all. I recommend this nursing home absolutely. I was recognised by many of the staff from last year and I met many new staff, becoming instant friends. I got known as the "chatterbox", and have lots of names to remember of staff of many different nationalities and religious backgrounds. My laptop has many downloaded items in their different languages including Twi, Malayalam, Hindi, Xhosa, Filipino, Shona (The website is available in over 1000!), and English. I found the Internet was available at all times which was such a bonus for me.
This year I also enjoyed my stay very much. I hope to come back again soon if they'll have me. best wishes all.
Reply from Emma Pinnell, Manager at College Fields Nursing HomeThank you for the lovely feedback, we are so glad to hear that your 2 stays with us have been enjoyable one and you have been happy with the care we strive to provide here. We would welcome you back anytime, it has been a pleasure to support you and your husband to have some respite time.

The food is lovely with care menu planning for nutrition.
The home is constantly thriving to improve every aspect but truthfully things are near perfect.

I am very impressed with the care my father has had since being in a nursing home.
All the staff are amazing with dad, especially as he has a lot of care needs and is unable to do a lot of everyday tasks himself.

My father Trevor was resident at College Fields from October 2025 until he passed this week. During the time he was there he was cared for by many different carers. They all treated him with kindness and respect. When we visited nothing was too much trouble and they were always friendly and extremely
pleasant. They sat and talked to him when he was alone which was a great comfort to us. I would especially
like to mention Divya, Shambeta and Sandra for their support at all times.
Reply from Emma Pinnell, Manager at College Fields Nursing HomeThank you for taking the time to provide such lovely feedback about the home.

I will also be sure to pass on your kind feedback to the nurse, carers, and cleaner you mentioned in your comment - they will be delighted to hear this.

I write to commend the staff of College Fields for their care and humanity.
My brother in law was a resident for over 4 months until he recently passed away.
The staff were consistently very kind both to my brother in law and sister in law. Also to the rest of the family. My sisters' wishes as his
advocate were also adhered to, and nothing was too much trouble.
He was always clean and well presented and was treated respectfully by the staff and that includes all members of the team.
The food was very good and although his appetite was poor, he would always be given other choices as supplement.
In particular, was the care that was shown to my brother in law and the family in his final days.
Many thanks.
Reply from Emma Pinnell, Manager at College Fields Nursing HomeMany thanks for taking the time to provide the lovely feedback and such kind words, we are truly grateful to hear your brother-in-law and the family were all happy with the care we strive to provide at College Fields. we will continue to work hard tp provide the best care we care.

I visit my wife every day and I've always been very pleased with the level of cleanliness of the lounges, the visitors' pod and my wife's room. The same goes for the level of care and attention shown by the staff to my wife and other residents. Particular praise should go to the Activity team for their
hard work and constant cheery interaction with residents and the activities they organise for them. I see for myself how much they brighten the residents' lives and how much genuine concern they show for them.
Reply from Malen Alvarez, Registered Home Manager at The Waverley Care CentreThank you so much for your kind and thoughtful feedback.

My mother has been a resident at Bellavista Barry since November 2021. Bellavista's care for my mother has been very good, coping with increasing dementia. Mum is now 96 years old and where she can join in to activities, Bellavista always encourage her. They also do their best to get her to eat as this
is a daily problem. Bellavista are also proactive in dealing with problems as they occur such as when Mum has become unwell. We have always been kept up to date with what is going on.
