My friend is always happy with her care, the carers are always friendly and helpful on my weekly visits.

I think the fact that my friend arranges all her visits for the mornings because she doesn't want to miss the activities speaks volumes, they are organised by a staff member full of enthusiasm, who engages the residents brilliantly.

Reply from Jane Brown, Registered Home Manager at Uvedale Hall

Thank you for your kind words, we are delighted to know that your friend is happy with her care. Our activities staff always go above and beyond to provide a variety of fulfilling activities, it is wonderful to hear that she is enjoying them so much.

Overall Experience

Mum moved permanently into Uvedale in November 2020, after a few weeks respite care. We cannot praise Uvedale highly enough, there is a wonderful family atmosphere, very caring, and lots of fun. The Manager and her team go out of their way to make residents and visitors welcome. There are delicious homemade meals, wonderful birthday cakes, teatime treats. Standards of cleanliness are excellent, the building and grounds are beautiful, lovingly maintained and so relaxing, it really is a home from home. They really get to know the residents and Mum settled in very quickly. You can visit whenever you want to. There are activities in the afternoons, craft, gentle exercise, games. Families are invited to parties which are great fun. I must also mention the standard of detail on administering medication is outstanding. If mum is struggling with one of her medications, they speak to the GP and find solutions. We feel so lucky to have found Uvedale. Thank you all very much.

Review from J E (Granddaughter of Resident) published on 15 January 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My grandma moved into Uvedale earlier this year, and I cannot fault anything. As soon as you step into the home, it’s such a warm, welcoming place, and the team are always so lovely and friendly, which made Grandma feel at ease and settle in very quickly when moving here. We recently came along to the Uvedale Christmas party, and it was so heartwarming to see all the residents take part and smile away with the team, family and friends, taking part in the raffle, singling along to Christmas songs, an amazing buffet by the lovely chef and the local pop chorus choir. I cannot recommend Uvedale Hall highly enough, as how my grandma and other residents are so truly loved and cared for by every single person in the team.

Reply from Suzanne York, Registered Home Manager at Uvedale Hall

Overall Experience

I attended the Christmas Party on 15th December 23 for residents and family. We were greeted by some lovely singing, and everyone was joining in. The buffet was amazing, with beautiful home-cooked food. The manager brought her choir, and they sang carols, which went down wonderfully. All the carers were so helpful, even the ones off duty were still helping everyone. Can't thank them enough for all they do for the residents to make them feel at home.

Reply from Suzanne York, Registered Home Manager at Uvedale Hall
We had a wonderful party, and I’m so glad you enjoyed it. The choir really loved singing to you all and being part of our special day.

It was an amazing event that truly encapsulated the Uvedale Family spirit. With our grateful thanks and best wishes, the manager and Team Uvedale.

Overall Experience
Visiting for activity put on at the care home. On each visit, I have been really impressed with the cleanliness of the home. Having worked at a previous nursing home, I know that it is so difficult to maintain standards at all times- including smells. Can I commend Uvedale on this, it demonstrates that personal care is completed in a timely and correctly disposed of items.

The activities put on really do engage the residents and visitors alike and it is really heartening to see this happening. The staff interact so well with residents and their families alike and it is such a homely home where true commitment to caring is evident.

I throughly enjoyed the Christmas festivities as did my nana, we were able to make it a family event with my mum, aunt and my son also attending. The atmosphere was amazing and the care shown to the residents was evident throughout. My son loves to visit his great-nana and loves filming the choir. He also enjoyed helping with the raffle!

Nana enjoyed the event and we talked about it again on my last visit, she was lucky enough to win some raffle prizes! Although her health has been deteriorating, being at Uvedale has enabled her to regain some of her spark again.

We are so pleased that you and your family enjoyed our festive celebrations. it was such a joyous occasion and and was much needed after the last few years. Thank you for your kind words and this amazing review.

Mum sadly passed away after spending her final months at Uvedale. She had a great fondness for all of the staff who looked after her with such care. She had a lovely room and it always felt very homely visiting her. We stayed with her during her final days and cannot thank the staff enough for all the support and kindness they gave to us as a family to help us through such a sad time.

Review from A P (Daughter of Resident) published on 7 November 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My mum was a resident at Uvedale Hall Care Home for nearly a year. A formidable little lady whose behaviour could be challenging. I can’t speak highly enough about the wonderful care that she received from all of the staff. Myself and my family visited at all times of the day and evening and we were greeted with friendly staff who could tell us all about Mum.
Unfortunately, my mum became unwell and required end-of-life care, in September. It was delivered with such care and compassion. I spent hours each day at my mum's side and on occasions when I couldn’t be there, the manager or another member of staff was with her.
The manager supported me and was at my side when Mum passed away. The whole experience of Mum’s last year in Uvedale Hall was so positive that I smile every day when I think of her and look through photos of her time there.

I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Uvedale Hall and its amazing staff.

Our mum moved into Uvedale Hall earlier this year following a hospital stay. Mum has many health challenges including limited sight and hearing. The care she has is second to none and she loves the food. We have been able to personalise her room and she is involved in the many activities they offer. When mum has been poorly the staff are so caring (and put up with our constant questions) - what more can you ask for.

Overall Experience

I cannot praise highly enough the staff at Uvedale Hall. Whenever I phoned night or day, whoever picked up the phone, exactly how my dad was. The staff are obviously very experienced and knew all of the warning signs for asking for medical assistance for Dad, and ultimately to warn me in plenty of time that he was nearing the end, sadly. I was especially impressed with the emphasis praised on Uvedale Hall being dads home not the staff's or an institution.

Reply from Suzanne York, Registered Home Manager at Uvedale Hall

Thank you for taking the time to review Uvedale Hall. The team here worked very hard to ensure that your dad was cared for to the very best of their abilities and that he felt this was his home at all times. I will pass on this feedback to the team.

Review from Debra C (Friend of Resident) published on 19 April 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I visited my best friend's mom who recently moved into Uvedale Hall a month or so ago and from the moment I walked in I sensed calm. There was lots of natural light and the room was big and airy so we could all chat away quite comfortably. The house was faultless - it was immaculately clean and had a lovely aroma. What was impressive is that there is such loyalty amongst the team with most, if not all, of them, having such long years of service, which was lovely to hear. The team were professional, dedicated social care experts and were totally focused on everyone who was staying there. The activity board showed you everything that was going on that week - from getting your hair cut to having a sing-song in the afternoon. It all looked amazing. Nothing appeared like an effort or too much trouble for the team, which is always a concern for families when their loved ones either go for respite care or to stay longer. I thought it was absolutely lovely.

Reply from Suzanne York, Registered Home Manager at Uvedale Hall
Thank you for taking the time to review the care and support here at Uvedale. To know that the ethos of our home is so clear to see from the moment you entered the home is testament to the hard work and dedication all the teams here at Uvedale Hall, demonstrate.

Mum has only been in the care home for a few months. During that time, I have always found all of the staff friendly, patient and caring. They all get to know the person and their needs, health problems and difficulties. When I have contacted the home or visited, they always know who Mum is and where she is - room/lounge etc. During recent times of Covid and flu, I am assured that all residents are well looked after and in safe hands.

Review from Margaret G (Daughter of Resident) published on 17 January 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Dad moved in last year as he was finding it increasingly difficult to cope. The care and attention that he's received from all the staff can not be faulted. He very much enjoys all his meals and tapping his feet at the music events. He has got a few health problems, and the staff have been quick and professional in their response.

Despite having to cope with the stresses of Covid and flu outbreaks, the staff are always cheerful, and nothing is too much trouble. I would absolutely recommend Uvedale Hall to anyone.

Review from Trish W (Daughter of Resident) published on 17 January 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My mother has been a resident for six months now. She entered the care home after her husband of 70 years passed away. I had no idea how she would cope physically and emotionally with the huge change in her circumstances or even how she would take to life in a residential home. It was a critical time for her, and she could have gone either way.
I cannot praise the manager and the team of Uvedale Hall enough for their dedication, consistency of care, kindness and gentleness towards my mother. She is treated with respect and dignity and fully involved in decisions about her care which is entirely tailored to her individual needs.
Her life has expanded; she is physically fitter and is more like her old self than she has been for many years. She loves the company and is stimulated by all the conversations and new relationships she is making. She is happy again and feels she is at home.

Thank you, Uvedale Hall, for your unfailing support and care for mum and our family.

I am writing this review to say how much care and support the manager and staff have given my dad and my family when moving into Uvedale Hall. Dad was very unsettled about moving into his room after being very independent in his bungalow, but after a lot of talking and encouragement from us all, I am pleased to say that he says he is extremely lucky to be in a nice room and everyone is so lovely and caring and he is now hopefully going to join in more activities! Thank you to all the team at Uvedale.

I love working here as it truly feels like my second home and a safe, happy place. Every day is different, full of fun, laughter and sometimes a few tears, and we really are one big family that extends to all residents and their loved ones. My laughter is infectious, and even if residents don’t always see me, they often hear me and say it reassures them. I previously worked as a Caretaker and in Building Support, and since joining Healthcare Homes, I’ve achieved my NVQ in Hospitality, which supports me in my role.

Uvedale Hall is a beautiful home, and I really enjoy working with the wonderful residents. I take time to understand each person’s food and drink needs, making sure they can enjoy what they love while receiving the right nutrition. Alongside my Healthcare Homes training, caring for my own mother, who lived with dementia, has given me valuable experience and insight, helping me understand residents’ needs and support them in a thoughtful and personal way.

I care for each resident as if they were my own family, sharing laughter as well as support, and it often feels like having lots of extra grandparents to enjoy and love. Before joining Healthcare Homes, I worked as a Manager at a community shop in Somersham, where I helped run an over-60s club. Since joining the care sector, I’ve achieved my Level 2 in Adult Social Care and began my first role as a carer.
