Review from P W (Grandson of Resident) published on 1 March 2021 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

I'm not one to leave reviews, but this was a must! The care my grandad received at Boucherne was nothing short of superb. The attention to detail and care the residents get is first class. I could not say a bad word about Boucherne, from the management to staff, cleaners; everyone is so welcoming. For all the care my grandad received, I will be forever grateful.

Reply from Ann Barlow, Manager at Boucherne

Thank you. It was a privilege to care for your lovely grandfather.

Lived in a retirement flat in the same area, came here from the hospital - from then until now; very happy. Care and company very friendly and sure this will continue. I am not very active by choice.

Review from Paul R (Nephew of Resident) published on 6 August 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My Aunt loves it at the Boucherne; we are so lucky she is here and not somewhere else. The Boucherne is homely, the staff are friendly, welcoming and create a warm atmosphere. As others have said, nothing is ever too much trouble - the care she receives is first rate. There are many activities/trips to get involved in, whilst my Aunt is able to keep her independence. It doesn't feel at all like a care home, just a home - which is a good thing.

Finally, I will say, if I ever need to go into a care home in later life, if it's half as good as the Boucherne, I'd be more than happy.

Review from Margaret (Daughter of Resident) published on 23 February 2017 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My father was a resident at Boucherne for a year. The care was excellent, the staff caring and attentive, nothing was too much trouble for them.
Visiting was anytime, for as long as you liked, visitors welcomed and offered drinks or you are welcome to go down and make your own whenever.
The food was all cooked fresh on the premises, homemade soups and cakes, and always a roast Sunday lunch.
I could not recommend this home enough, it is more a home than an institution, the residents are not sitting in a circle all day long looking at a TV.
Outings and meals out are arranged, there are lots of things arranged in the home during the week.

A loving, caring home.

Review from Kate J (Daughter of Resident) published on 21 November 2016 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Our father spent 3 years at Boucherne during which time he was extremely well looked after by the incredibly kind, caring and professional staff who always had time for him and his individual needs. He was encouraged to continue with outside interests as long as he was able. The end of life care he received was wonderful and as a family we were always involved.

Reply from Ann Barlow, Manager at Boucherne

It was a privilege to know your father. He was a gentleman. I miss him. I miss our chats.

Review from Allen W (Son of Resident) published on 16 June 2016 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

My mother entered this care home mid April 2016 and was very much against being put here, in a quite aggressive way. Our family were very concerned as she is 96 years old and we had spent a considerable amount of time finding the right place for her as there are no other alternatives because of family situations. She is now a very very happy person, she loves it there. Everyone is so kind and helpful, the staff are brilliant, the food great, lots of activities and mum has the run of the garden, which she loves, it is home.

Reply from Ann Barlow, Manager at Boucherne

It is a pleasure to see how well your mum has settled here at Boucherne and how much she is enjoying life.

Review from Richard B (Son of Resident) published on 21 November 2015 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

The staff are amazing, always cheerful, and make no fuss over doing anything. The owner spends most of his time ensuring standards are maintained. There are activities organised every week and regular outings. All food is cooked at home and mum eats in her room by choice, which they make no fuss over. I live close and visit at all hours, it's always friendly and hospitable, can't fault it.

I have been a part of Boucherne since 2022. I work with a very professional team of carers who genuinely care for our residents. I very much enjoy the compassionate, warm and homely atmosphere at Boucherne, where all our staff and residents are more like family.
