Barchester Warren Care Home

Happy with everything. Home is excellent.

Overall, a friendly and caring place, with lots going on for those who wish to participate.

My father-in-law is very happy at Barchester The Warren Care Home. He is cared for by a happy and professional staff. He joins in with the regular entertainment and especially enjoys the scrabble club and regular outings in the minibus.

Barchester The Warren Care Home have looked after my father in an excellent manner over the past five years. The catering, housekeeping and entertainment staff are all very professional with the interest of the resident at heart. Dad was recently taken to an RAF base in Lincolnshire to have afternoon tea with King Charles.

The Warren was my aunt's home for the last year of her life. She lived the best life ever at the centre. She loved the activities especially if they involved animals, ate beautifully prepared food and was tended by the best team ever assembled. The family are treated so well, cups of tea and coffee and offer us food. I can't praise The Warren enough. She was respected, pampered, loved and dignified until the very end.

Wonderful facility, they took great care of my aunt during her final year. The care and compassion demonstrated to her and the family was exceptional.

Very caring, lovely surroundings, very comfortable and the food is excellent. Could not ask for more from a care home. My mother-in-law is treated with care and dignity in a lovely atmosphere.

This was my mum's first stay in residential care while her home was refurbished. The carers and enriching staff were amazing, and so caring, nothing was too much trouble. It was so reassuring to know Mum was so well supported and cared for. What a great team at The Warren.

I was impressed and the staff very good. If I did not like the food an alternative was found.

My father is being well looked after. The staff are friendly and helpful. They listen when we talk to them. The home is very well run and friendly.

My lovely Nanny joined The Warren in December 2021 for a 2-week respite stay and she decided to stay after this. My nanny enjoyed the last year of her life at The Warren where she was treated by the most wonderful empathetic team of people. We will be forever grateful for the love, care and dedication and companionship she received.

Activities organised at the home are particularly enjoyable for my mother, with staff always thinking about what the residents will enjoy, they update their social media platform regularly with photos that the whole family love to see. The worry of how my mother is cared for in the later stages of her life has certainly lessened whilst being at The Warren.

My husband was in The Warren Care Home for two weeks of respite following an 8 week's stay in the hospital. During this time he was treated really well by all staff. He settled during his stay and attended some of the Christmas events which he enjoyed. The Warren being all on one level was a very safe environment for him to be in as he likes to wander about and he is used to a bungalow at home. He went to the dining room for his and mixed with other residents too which helped his well-being during his stay.

My dad has been in The Warren for two months now and has settled really well. He's enjoyed lots of activities and making new friends. The staff are superb. They are kind, welcoming, engaging and are always ready to help. I'm so pleased we were able to get him a room there.

Dad went into the home in a pretty poor state and at first, withdrew into his own world. The staff managed to bring Dad out with their happy, caring and positive attitudes. I'm sure that he now feels like part of a big happy family. The staff are all very caring and pull his leg frequently but always with respect. Thank you.

Our family had to make a sudden decision to seek respite for my father-in-law after a period of ill health. We rang The Warren and they were extremely accommodating. We had a settling-in period after a hospital visit. The staff were in contact with us and my father-in-law's care through this time was outstanding. The staff always make us welcome and my father-in-law is happy, safe and settled.

My father has recently moved into The Warren as he was having great difficulty living on his own. Once he had recovered from his medical problems, he has blossomed in the home. He is now back to his old self like he was two years ago and enjoying life again.

I would like to thank all the staff at The Warren for the excellent care given to my mother. They showed great kindness, respect and dignity along with a sense of humor to make her laugh. I really appreciate the support the staff gave to my mum and myself and the family when we really needed it. The Warren have a fantastic team there and I would recommend highly.

My father has been in The Warren for over 2 1/2 years. He entered with a diagnosis of six to nine months to live. His care and the respect the staff have been wonderful. He is now ebbing towards his life end and I can honestly say the staff care for him and me too. Sometimes there are not enough staff, to my mind. Sometimes the telephone, late in the day does not get answered, which can be frustrating. Overall I am happy Dad is here. The staff are exceptional!

In summary, I cannot fault this care home and would happily live here as a permanent resident should the need arise
