Netherwood Residential Care Home

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Mum has only been at Netherwood for a week. In that week the whole team have been brilliant! From nurse visits to eye tests, they have given her a full MOT whilst showing her gentle kindness and care that she needs.
As a daughter, you worry constantly, but I've had daily calls with updates from members
of the care team - they are all upbeat and compassionate..
the place itself is positive and vibrant, every member of staff regardless of their role is friendly and approachable.
It's only been a week, but Netherwood has already exceeded any expectations.
Thank you.

This care home is exceptional. After looking at many care homes in Shropshire this one stood out for us. Exceptionally clean with beautiful gardens which residents use in the warm weather. The staff are very friendly, approachable and empathetic. My mother is extremely happy here, always laughing and
having a smile on her face when we visit. There are lots of daily activities that keep the residents happy which my mother really enjoys. There is a cinema and a hairdressing room which are excellent. The food is amazing and the kitchen staff and chef always cater for her needs. Highly recommended.

My mother-in-law has been a resident at Netherwood for just over 6 months. During that time, we have come to know a lot of the staff and without exception they are all friendly and approachable and a definite positive is that there does not appear to be a significant turnover in staff.
All the staff
know the residents as individuals and treat them accordingly with dignity and respect. The rooms and shared areas are clean and well maintained. We have not actually sampled the food, but the menus appear varied and drink and snacks are provided on a regular basis throughout the day.
Any issues are listened to and dealt with by the appropriate member of staff albeit care staff or management/admin. Any delays are usually outside their control eg waiting for appointments with the appropriate NHS professional.
We now feel we are able to go away for a few days safe in the knowledge that my MIL is safe and well cared for.

Netherwood Residential Care Home

After visiting, a few care homes for my mom we chose Netherwood. It was apparent from our visit, the surroundings, accommodation and facilities would suit mom and the staff provided the care residents needed.
After several months residency our initial thoughts about Netherwood have been reinforced
from the manager to the maintenance team. We visit mom regularly, staff are always friendly, cheerful and attentive to the resident's needs. The management are always approachable and willing to speak to you keeping you informed regarding health issues etc. The care staff are friendly and caring towards individual residents, conversing and addressing each resident by name.
The kitchen staff provide a varied menu, catering for individual needs. Rooms are clean and tidy, the laundry is washed and returned to the residents' rooms regularly. Clothes can appear in the wrong room. Residents items can go missing but every effort is made to try and find them.
I would recommend Netherwood Care Home

Mum has been a resident for 18months. Overall care and facilities are excellent. Care is very much personalised to each resident's needs. The staff are long term employees - you always see familiar faces. The management team responded quickly and flexibly to a recent request to host an online mental
capacity assessment in relation to selling Mum's former home. They accommodated the request at very short notice while remaining professional.

Netherwood management were very quick to respond to an urgent need in accommodating my Aunt when hospital wanted a quick discharge.
All my Aunts needs were assessed quickly and her transfer to the care home facilitated
efficiently and also helpful to the family to ensure this stressful process was
conducted professionally.
The staff have been brilliant in helping my aunt to get used to her new surroundings which is crucial in helping her to settle.
Early days I know but we are comforted that she is in a safe, warm, comfortable place being looked after and cared for.
The staff and management are very friendly and a seemingly nothing is too much trouble attitude.

Netherwood is clean throughout and the rooms are spacious and welcoming. All the staff are pleasant and helpful and keep you fully informed and many of the staff go the extra mile. The quality of care is first class and the residents are treated excellently and cannot speak highly enough of the care
home in general. There are always different activities and entertainment to keep residents who want to partake occupied and happy.
I can't thank all the staff enough for looking after my father-in-law and the care and respect he was given in his final days.

Mum has been at Netherwood since June and she has settled in well. Physically her mobility has improved massively and she has gained confidence walking with her frame. She eats really well and loves a cooked breakfast. The staff are all hardworking and friendly and nothing is too much trouble.
It's a huge comfort to us knowing Mum is safe especially as we live in Berkshire.

Netherwood is a small care home that strives on a daily basis to deliver quality care and support. The staff are friendly and welcoming.; dealing with
difficult challenging situations with patience and humour. The bathing facilities would benefit from updating. I would recommend Netherwood to other
families.

My nan has been at Netherwood Care Home in Shifnal for several years and we honestly couldn't be happier with the care she receives. The staff are incredibly kind, patient and genuinely caring. Nothing is ever too much trouble and they always go the extra mile to make residents feel valued and comfortable.


The

activities are excellent and well thought out, keeping residents engaged and involved, and my nan really enjoys taking part. The food is also brilliant, good quality, well cooked and plenty of choice, which gives us great reassurance.


Netherwood feels warm, welcoming and very well run, but it's the people that truly make the difference. Knowing my nan is safe, happy and so well cared for means everything to our family.


I would highly recommend Netherwood to anyone looking for a care home for a loved one,

Our Mum moved here in November from another care home which we had many issues with.
Oh, how I wish we had done it sooner!
The level of care is exemplary and it's very obvious that the Manager is very proud of her team and that this is a happy place for both staff and residents alike.
Really could
not find a fault and highly recommend.

Netherwood is just incredible. We moved my Mum here after a horrific experience at a previous care home so we were understandably very worried.
From our initial phone call we were listened to, reassured and the care for Mum was exceptional. Everyone knew Mum and took the time to chat to her and get
to know her. She was always clean and extremely well cared for.
They got my Mum laughing, smiling and walking again, which we didn't think we would ever see.
Sadly we lost Mum recently but Netherwood were so kind and she was treated with dignity and respect. They also ensured we had everything we needed as well.
I just wish we had moved Mum sooner.
Thank you to everyone, you are all amazing and made Mums last few weeks so happy.

My husband who has mixed dementia has just been in Netherwood Care Home for a week's respite. I cannot speak highly enough of the staff who are all so caring and understanding it's not easy to leave your loved one in someone else's care, but I had no doubt about leaving my husband at Netherwood from
the way I was greeted on arrival. I left feeling that my husband will be looked after. The whole team are amazing Thank you all so much for looking after him.

We have been overwhelmed by the care given to my Mum during the time she has been at Netherwood Residential Care Home. Recently she was very ill. The staff were fantastic with her and have nursed her back to health and encouraged her to walk again. Netherwood feels like a home from home. The staff work
very hard to ensure a lovely atmosphere where visitors are made very welcome. I thought I would worry about Mum going into a home but the staff are so caring I have no concerns at all.
