Wisden Court

I would recommend Wisden Court to anyone needing excellent respite or long-stay care.

Always felt that my mother was safe and loved.

Excellent care by excellent carers, supremely clean and comfortable too.

Such a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The staff are all amazing. My family and I are reassured that my mother-in-law is being looked after. She is happy and content. She has made friends and with everything going on in the world right now, she is most importantly being kept safe.

The staff at Wisden Court have taken excellent care of my wife for some time now and throughout, they have shown her love, care and respect and during my visits, they have always treated me the same. My wife is now receiving end of life care. The same high quality of care continues with an extremely high level of sensitivity towards me and my family. I cannot recommend this home strongly enough.

Once more, I feel compelled to mention how happy my family and I are with the extraordinary care given to my mother and indeed, the family, in any interactions with the home. The wonderful, safe methods applied to allow an indoor visit and to finally hold my mother’s hand has been navigated extremely well and with such care. This last year, Wisden Court rose to the challenges with expertise and sensitivity.

Mum has been at Wisden Court for just over 6 years and has never had cause to make any complaint. She has been extremely well looked after and we have to praise all the staff for their extra vigilance during the pandemic, keeping all their staff and residents safe. I don't live near, so can't visit her, but knowing she is in good hands, is very comforting. Not only do they care about their residents, but also the families, as this is a very hard time for us all. I can have a Skype call with Mum, even though she doesn't recognise me or can speak, but it is just reassuring to see her. This has been a lifeline for me. Hats off to all the staff.

The staff at Wisden Court are amazing they look after my mother with great care. The staff are brilliant and I wouldn't want my mum anywhere else. Unfortunately, during these tough times, they always keep me in touch with what's going on and she is always well presented when I go to see her. They always have something going on to pass the time. I can't thank them all enough. Regards.

My mum has been in Wisden Court for nearly two years and in all the time she has been there, she has been extremely well looked after. She is always treated with loving care and the utmost respect. The care home manager and all her staff have worked tirelessly to keep all the residents safe and well throughout this very difficult time. I can't recommend Wisden Court enough, everything about the home is first class.

I have nothing but praise for the care my Dad had 5 years ago and the care my Mum now receives. Wisden Court aims to be a home from home and mostly achieves this. The staff are always willing to answer questions and to put right anything that seems amiss.

Wisden cared for my father during the last couple of years of his life. I was sufficiently impressed with their care for him that I was only too happy for them to care for my Mother who has now been there for a couple of years. The manager seems to run a "tight ship" which is very reassuring. The staff are just lovely, and always seem to want to go the extra mile to enrich the lives of the residents.

The manager and all the staff at Wisden Court are great before and during this pandemic. They are caring helpful and friendly trying to keep the residents safe and happy. Thanks for all you are doing to help mum during this difficult time.

I cannot comment too much on the questions below as it was only an outdoor visit. Speaking to my Aunt she is very happy with the care etc that she receives. My visit to the outdoors is very well organised and under the circumstances, nothing at the moment could be made better. My answers below are based on conversations with my Aunt.

The manager and her staff are a well-oiled team, who put their resident first with empathy and kindness. Throughout the Covid pandemic, the manager has kept a really tight ship which was reassuring. Just to finish with a big thank you.

Prior to Mum moving into Wisden Court I was finding it a real struggle to keep her safe on a daily basis but from day one of Mum being there I have never been in doubt that she is in the best, safest and most suitable home possible. The staff are always helpful, friendly and very professional. Although I have found it difficult not to see her throughout the Covid-19 lockdown I have been reassured by constantly being updated via phone and Email on any new issues. In addition, the fact I can have Skype chats with her via superb support from the staff has been a real blessing. I have no negative comments of any kind to make with regards to Mum’s care there.

My mum has been at Wisden Court for nearly 4 years. I have always been happy with the care mum has received, the home has a pleasant feel and really does feel like a second home to me as all staff are so friendly. Mum feels safe and looked after. Wisden Court have shone during this Covid-19 pandemic, we haven't been able to visit for obvious reasons, telephone calls aren't easy for my mum as she struggles to communicate verbally, but this hasn't been a problem as they have ensured Skype calls were put in place which means I am still able to see her every week. This gives me such peace of mind as I can see for myself she is ok. During this time where we are still partially in lockdown, there really is nowhere else where I would rather my mum be and am so very grateful to all the staff there for keeping my mum safe.

Mum has been in Wisden Court for just over a year. Although initially, it was a tough decision it has been the best thing we have done for Mum as she is very much happier now than when she was living alone. She is extremely well looked after by caring and dedicated staff. There is a wide variety of stimulating daily activities which Mum is encouraged to join in with. We are kept informed of any changes to Mum's care package and are encouraged to speak to the staff with any concerns we may have. During this difficult time, due to Covid-19, the home has been well organised and taken many early and continuing precautions, to prevent the virus entering the home. As a family, we have been kept updated on the situation on a regular basis. Overall, Wisden Court has been a Godsend and we couldn't have hoped for better.

A big thank you to all the amazing staff.

My mother came to Wisden Court for respite in November last year and is now a permanent resident. She is very happy there, which surprised me. The place has a nice vibe throughout and the staff is always keen to help and do what they can.

It's a very difficult thing to leave your parent totally in the care of others, but I do feel reassured that she is being well cared for.
