Wisden Court

The staff treated the patients with care and kindness and the patients trusted them and seemed happy, safe and content. What more could you ask for?

Mum had 3 weeks respite here before being moved into another house, wish she could have stayed here as the family found it to have a nice layout. Clean, friendly and well run, staff always kept us up to date with mum's welfare. Good weekly activities schedule for those who wish to join in. Clean and pleasant rooms.

I would highly recommend this care home. Friendly, caring and clean. It puts every individual first and understands how each and everyone has different needs. If I was to choose a care home for myself it would have to be this one. They engage with the family as well. They have what every elderly person would wish for.

Dad spent a total of 8 weeks at Wisden Court for respite care during this year. I cannot fault his care. He was always treated with kindness and compassion. The staff are lovely and Dad really enjoyed the food. Unfortunately, a permanent place wasn't available for him, but he is now settled elsewhere.

Mum was in Wisden for about five years. From the start, Mum was always happy with her new home, well cared for and would have no hesitation in recommending Wisden as a care home.

I was really worried when I was told my mother would have to go into a care home. Then I went to Wisden Court. what a lovely place. Friendly staff and really lovely, airy rooms. Mother settled well which helped a lot, but the staff also helped a lot. The home is in a quiet area. Nicely set out. It is very well kept. Plenty for the resident to do. They are so caring. I worry no more.

My mother's health improved considerably during her stay at Wisden Court. The staff are caring, willing, patient and cheerful. The building is spacious, light and airy, the rooms clean. The kitchen is excellent, especially as the food is freshly cooked each day. Also, the laundry did a good service. When I requested a Doctor see my Mother this was done promptly. There is nothing I could fault, you run a superb home.

My mother was looked after in a very caring and professional environment. The care home was very clean and welcoming, the staff were very engaging and friendly. I would certainly recommend this home.

When it proves necessary, for the safety and security of a loved one, to move into residential care, the physical and emotional challenges can be immense for all concerned. After a lifetime of independence, following my Mother's passing, a hip fracture and worsening memory function due to Alzheimer's, my Father moved into Wisden Court six months ago. Dad was welcomed and immediately made to feel safe and comfortable in his new environment. The staff took time to get to know him and learn about his family, history and hobbies and he felt pleased and valued by their interest in, and acknowledgement of his life skills and achievements. Without exception, the management and care teams are cheerful and caring to both residents and their families, and unfailingly diligent and respectful in preserving the safety, security and dignity of those vulnerable older people in their care. Rooms and communal areas are airy, comfortable and welcoming and the facilities and entertainments comprehensive. Regular communication is maintained with families, individually where appropriate and, more widely, via newsletter and updates. I am now confident that Dad is safe, secure and above all happy in a well-ordered and peaceful enviironment, with its atmosphere of quiet efficienty.

My mother was very happy with the care she received over her 8 week stay. She said she would have been very happy to have stayed longer if allowed.

Very well done to all of them for trying to keep the residents entertained.

I would truthfully recommend Wisden Court as a care home to family and friends.

For the short 2 week visit my mum seemed to be very relaxed, settled easily and pretty happy. Activities were good which kept mum involved and active mentally. Would be nice to use own furniture to make a more "at home feel" and some rooms look cosier than others due to colour schemes. All in all very happy.

The care and compassion shown to my husband and ourselves have been exemplary.

I have been visiting my friend for 3 years now and have found the staff there to be extremely helpful to visitors and residents. The staff would always greet me (and others visiting) with a smile and such warmth. They are interested in the wellbeing of the residents and show this in the way they treat them. My friend has always expressed how much she liked the staff and how happy she was at Wisden. I would most definitely recommend.

I was so very pleased with the care given to my husband at Widen Court. He went there for one week respite. The staff were friendly and caring, helping to settle him in. He was happy there. The atmosphere was good and he mixed well with other residents. My son visited him and said he was impressed with the home. When I collected my husband he was relaxed and had been so well looked after. I will use this again.

Good level of care, mum seems happy here. She enjoys her meals and the activities provided. All carers seem very kind and caring and I believe she is getting a good level of care here.

A very nice home. All rooms spotless. The carers and management are 100% excellent. My auntie is 97 years old. I am so pleased with the way she is treated, nothing is a problem to them. Overall, I can't fault anything with this care home.

When my friend and I were greeted, we were made so welcome. The care given since has been outstanding and the staff are so kind and very professional in their manner.

Dad seemed to enjoy himself. Staff friendly.
