Overall Experience

We visited this time after not having seen my Brother for a couple of months.
Every member of staff was helpful and polite.
A cup of coffee was provided for us within 15 minutes.
My Brother was contented and happy in the environment.

Overall Experience

The experience we have as a family visiting our brother is made to feel so welcoming, and is so pleasing that the care he receives is kind, and communication with us is very helpful as the stages of his dementia progresses.
The home is clean and the staff are very attentive, we couldn't ask for anything

more and we are very content with the care he gets.
Thank you to all the team.

Overall Experience

Swan House is an amazing care home. The staff are fantastic and cannot do enough to help my mum live a happy and comfortable life, especially the manager. He is always there to talk to and proactive in implementing things. Very understanding. This is my mum's third care home, and is by far the best

- a home away from home!

Overall Experience

It is my great pleasure to report that since moving to Swan House Care Home, my mother has begun to smile again. She seems a changed person. She is happy, much more content, and she is slowly putting on weight, so she much be happy with the food and drink. I am also happy to report that she is responding

very well to the activities provided, especially the visiting petting zoo.

Review from Lynn O (Daughter of Resident) published on 26 May 2022 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

Mum has now been a resident for eight months, and I can honestly say that she has never received such good care. Nothing is too much trouble for the wonderful staff there. She adores them all (as do we) and is so happy and grateful to be a resident. The carers are all so very kind and respectful and

treat Mum with the utmost dignity at all times. Everyone takes the time to talk to her and help her when needed. The GP surgery who visits the home is also excellent. If you are looking for a small, intimate ‘and caring’ care home for your loved one, look no further! I cannot praise them all highly enough.

Overall Experience

My mother receives great care at Swan House. She is obviously happy living there because she is much more alert and chatty when we visit. She says that the carers take the time to talk with her, which helps her stay alert. She looks very healthy due to good food and regular beverages being given. She

hasn't received care this good in years... many thanks to all.

Review from Richard H (Regular Volunteer) published on 3 February 2020 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

I wrote to you in July 2016, about my wife who had just started being a resident in 2016. The three years spent at Swan House saw her very happy and content while struggling with dementia. It exceeded all my expectations, and while good for her, it was also very good for me because I got my life back

and was able to lead a full life, in the knowledge that she was safe. The staff were amazing to both of us. I have the utmost respect for them all. My wife recently passed away, but the support and expertise shown by everyone contacted with Swan House was exceptional.
I am now a regular volunteer with Swan House.
The recent CQC report bore no resemblance to what I encountered at the home.

Review from Jane D (Daughter of Resident) published on 14 January 2020 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

Since moving Mum to Swan House in November straight from yet another hospital admission Mum has, with the help of the fantastic staff team, blossomed. Everyone in my family has commented on how well Mum has looked and the difference to her mental health, as she no longer looks so lonely and depressed.
The

home is welcoming, bright and spacious, family visits are not restricted by set times. Every one of the homes staff team made Christmas special and Mum certainly enjoyed very much, which was lovely to see.
All in all a lovely home and happy caring staff.

Overall Experience

Since my mum moved into Swan House in May, it's very friendly being a small home rather than a big one. The staff have got more time for my mum, her room is cosy and warm and the bathroom suits her needs.
She is getting the care she needs and you can talk to the staff and they listen, the communication

is good and never been left out of the loop. If I need care I wouldn't mind being there (hopefully not for a few years yet!)
