Both of my parents have lived in Wordsley Hall since last September. Both have received excellent care since then, and the manager and staff have done everything possible to ensure their health and well-being. Nothing is too much trouble. It has been difficult with the pandemic, but throughout this period, I couldn't have asked any more. I can call any time, night or day, for an update on my parents, and I am very happy with all aspects of care given.
My mom has been a resident at Wordsley Hall for a couple of years. She absolutely loves it there. The staff are amazing. They are very friendly and the care is excellent. I must mention the manager, she is the heart of the home. She is fun and is extremely uplifting. I really don't have to worry about my mom as she is loved and looked after so well. Would highly recommend.
The strength of Wordsley Hall is the staff, carers, cooks, cleaners, all treat the residents with kindness, dignity and respect to create a caring, homely environment.
There are no visiting times, you are made to feel welcome no matter when you visit. Wordsley Hall just has a lovely happy feel about it, something you can't buy but can only create with staff who truly have the residents happiness and wellbeing as a number one priority. Care homes can get a bad name in the news but they don't tell the story of families like us who are just so truly grateful for the work people do to make residents feel happy and at home. Knowing Dad is well cared for has allowed us as a family to breath a big sigh of relief.
So thank you to the manager and everyone at Wordsley Hall. You are all such amazing people and we thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
My aunty has not been very well in and out of hospital then back to Wordsley Hall. All the staff are very helpful, keep me informed and go out of their way for my aunty and myself. The home itself is a very happy place with lots going on for the residents. I cannot praise Wordsley Hall enough. I have dealt with many homes over the years and would recommend this home to anyone.
Always kind, respectful, very clean. My husband always looks clean and smart, is mostly cheerful. I am very satisfied with all aspects of his care. The only thing is the lack of stimulant for the residents.
My father has only just become resident at Wordsley Hall but so far he has been well looked after. Staff very helpful and efficient.
This time last week on May 7th 2016 my mom died, the sadness was unexplainable. The only way I managed to cope was by the kindness shown to me my dad and more importantly my mom. The day staff and night staff were so kind, nothing was to too much trouble for them.
They showed kindness and compassion to us all and never left our side when we needed a hug. I have to single out a senior carer as the kindest most compassionate carer I have ever met who did her job professionally but then went the extra mile to ensure moms passing a was as comfortable as it could be. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
