Compton View Residential Care Home

It was a very sad day for me at the time I left Compton View and the memory of their care will remain with me.

My review of Compton View is a very lovely care home to view. The people and the staff are wonderful and the owner is great.

I would recommend the place to anyone.

I think that says it all. Thank you.

I have a very close friend who is a resident of this Residential Home and whom I visit regularly (approx every ten days or so). I am very pleased with the care and attention my friend receives. The staff are capable, kind and considerate and the owner gives the residents opportunities for activities and varying menus, as well as running an efficient establishment, yet in a homely manner. Most impressive.

We cannot praise Compton View too highly for its care of our mother in her last years. We are hugely grateful to everyone there. When she came to the Home, aged 86, we thought she had only months left. Within those months she regained her health and looked years younger. The kindness and care of the staff gave her a new home, a new family and six more years of a very happy life. The home is clean and attractive, which is reflected in the treatment of the residents. mother’s medication was carefully managed and monitored, she was assisted with all aspects of her personal hygiene, and she was encouraged to take pride in her appearance. Daily activities were offered in the pleasant communal lounge, but mother generally preferred to stay in her room reading, knitting or looking at the “garden” of pots we put outside (gardening having been one of her great pleasures). The staff were happy to allow this, and as they often had reasons to pop in she became friends with them all.

During illness and my time here, I have been well looked after.

I have been here two years being well looked after and cared for.

We visit five days a week, always made welcome and kept informed of any issues regarding mum's health etc. Just so lucky we found Compton View.

My very dear friend was offered a bedroom at Compton View on a Friday afternoon after being informed she no longer needed to be hospitalised. They came up absolute "trumps/2 - absolutely nothing was too much trouble and they have 100% welcomed my friend into their care. Super, caring, loving manager and staff.

I can’t praise them enough, every member of staff I have spoken to has been happy and helpful and their cheerful disposition seems to be rubbing off on Dad although still reluctant to take part in activities he is smiling a lot more than I have seen in a long time.

All the staff are friendly, caring and willing to help in any way possible. They really care about Mum and have made her feel very welcome and settled. I would have no hesitation in recommending Compton View to friends in the area. I am very grateful to the staff for their caring and kindness shown to Mum.

I cannot praise the staff at Compton View highly enough. From the owner to the catering staff! You are always greeted in such a happy and welcoming way when visiting and nothing is too much trouble! The owner is great fun and always does her best to raise everyone’s spirits but at the same time, she stays on top of their medical conditions/needs. Activities are regularly organised and friends/family are encouraged to join the parties. Because the home is not too large, residents receive a very personal service. I would not hesitate to recommend Compton View to family or friends. Thank you for all the fantastic work that you do!

I am very pleased to have been recommended to Compton View, nothing has disappointed.

Compton View cared for my Aunt, who has since passed. I cannot thank and praise Compton View and staff enough for their excellent, kind care for my aunt who was immobile, blind and not an easy personality - they treated her like family and saw to her every need to ensure her happiness. They were great company for her and took care of her Dr's appointments, ensured she took her medications, bathing, making sure she was dressed in clean clothes, hair cuts, you name it, they took care of her every need.

I was especially grateful to the owner, who took care of clearing out my aunt's room for me after she died, as I live abroad and I could not leave my sick mother. She went above and beyond to see to everything and helping me with the hospital and funeral home arrangements. I could not have done this without her help and care. Wonderful lady and staff who do anything for you. She was also very supportive to me emotionally at this difficult time.

Thank you!

My cousin couldn't want for anything better. It is home from home with excellent food. If I needed residential care then this is where I would like to reside.

Very friendly staff, my nan is extremely happy here. Activities are always going on and management are more than happy to care and help with anything needed.

The manager and her team of excellent carers have made my mum feel welcome, safe and happy from the beginning. The team are caring and friendly, nothing is too much trouble. There are activities and occasional days out for those residents who wish to participate. Compton View has to be one of the best care homes in Yeovil.
