Chuffed to bits for these guys with their CQC outstanding rating. They all do a great job. Great Auntie is still loving life at Badgers Wood - children in again today, always something to do.

Review from S R (Son of Resident) published on 7 November 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Dad came in recently for some respite. He hasn't returned home. He got settled quickly and wants to stay. Can't fault the staff. Lots of them.

The food is good - Dad's put on weight, which is a good thing. Lots of choice. Nice quiet room. Lots of places to sit. The place is clean. Dad went down to the shops yesterday which he enjoyed - the sort of thing he used to enjoy doing.

Reply from Badgers Home Manager, Home Manager at Badgers Wood

Thank you for your review of Badgers Wood. We are so glad your father has settled so well here and is making use of the facilities available, and enjoying the social opportunities with the key workers. Feedback is vital to how we shape our care setting, so thank you for taking the time.

Overall Experience

My mother was a resident for the last 18 months of her life at Badgers Wood. She was welcomed and made to feel at home in her new surroundings. The care she was given was outstanding, she adapted to her new life so well due to the care and dignity she received from every member of the team.

Cannot fault Badgers Wood. All the staff, from the bottom to management at the top, are very friendly to my husband, myself and friends. The food looks lovely with a large variety.

Review from Jane J (Daughter-in-law of Resident) published on 13 July 2017 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My mother-in-law had spent 15months at Badgers Wood and was very happy there. She was always treated with kindness, love, care and above all allowed her to remain as independent as she wanted.
The staff were absolutely amazing and nothing was too much trouble. I would definitely recommend this home to anyone who is looking for a care home.

Thank you to all the staff, my mum-in-law and all the family have been shown such care and kindness something we will never forget.

Review from Edward M (Son-in-law of Resident) published on 13 July 2017 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
If you wish your loved one/relative to share their room with a commode (the shared toilets are in the coriddor), shabby old furniture, a pathetic wash basin and hardly room to swing a cat, then Badgers Wood should be just the ticket. Attention to health issues has been poor and the home management has been condescending and patronising towards my wife who is this resident‘s last surving close relative.

User beware as there much better alternatives close at hand.

Review from J T (Son of Resident) published on 12 June 2017 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience
Badgers Wood is a comfortable, pleasantly situated care home. What marks it out particularly is the kindness of its staff and the exceptional care shown to its residents.
On a recent visit, I accompanied a member of staff through the home - every resident we met on the way was greeted by name with genuine friendliness.

Highly recommended.

Overall Experience

Over a period of several years, I have seen the home become more "homely" and friendly with residents cared for in a more loving way.

Overall Experience
My father-in-law has been here for over a year now on daycare and respite.

The members of staff have been 1st class all friendly and helpful, any questions answered straight away. The manager and deputy both very experienced and will advise on anything that will assist father-in-law whilst there. He always looks forward to attending Badgers Wood without a problem,

Overall Experience

A friend moved into Badgers Wood last week. She was very scared of the change but after just a week, it is the happiest she has been for years. All staff have been so caring kind and helpful in settling her in and we can never thank them enough they are also always at the end of the telephone if we have any queries. It is a brilliant home with clean and lovely rooms, would recommend it to anybody.
