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.

My mother-in-law was taken ill after contracting Pneumonia. The staff acted so quickly in getting the doctor to assess her and were insistent that she went to the hospital for intravenous antibiotics to help her overcome the pneumonia. After a few days in hospital she was brought back home to Netherwood
and the staff were amazing, they assessed her upon arrival back at the nursing home and acted on all the things they thought she required to make her well. Nothing was too much trouble and all through this experience they were in constant touch with me. The staff are friendly, welcoming and nothing is too much trouble. They care for the residents as if they were their own family and more importantly, treat them all with respect.
Thank you Netherwood.

My Mother has been at Netherwood in all about three times, the last occasion being a permanent stay, the previous times over the last few years were for respite and convalescing after a short stay in hospital, from as far back as 2016. The home has provided all the care we could hope for, my mother
has taken a while to settle but she now calls it home and is always ready to return.
The accommodation is forever improving with the addition of a bar, a new hairdressing facility and a dedicated cinema.
All the new rooms are now underfloor heated which is perfect for the elderly, I can talk I’m 72 myself!

My Mother has now been in Netherwood for 14 months and although her health has deteriorated considerably over the last couple of months she has benefited from superb care throughout. Management and carers are very attentive to her needs and I am contacted regularly as to any problems she has and actions
taken. She is 101 years old and needs a lot of care which Netherwood supplies.
Thank you

Lovely home that has had a lot of new build recently. The staff have not let this work disrupt the day to day running of the home or their care for the residents.
The staff are quick to respond to medical issues and are a credit to the home.
The home responded very well with the difficult times during
covid restrictions.
