The Leys welcomes older residents with physical and mental health needs but not requiring nursing care. At the heart of The Leys' person-centred approach is a simple philosophy endorsed by all of the staff: to provide care the way that they would wish for their own relatives.
The Leys aims to provide care in an environment that looks and feels like a home away from home. They believe this is why most of their residents come to them through the personal recommendations of people who know the home.
Detailed care plans are developed in a fully transparent manner and updated regularly to ensure that the best and most appropriate care is provided for each individual. They welcome the input of family and friends of individuals in their care and welcome visitors at any time.

Irene...
Irene is not so active now and is almost bedbound but the staff have not given up on her and still find ways to involve her in the life of the home. Irene is happy at the Leys and any suggestion that she may have to move is met with great opprobrium. It would be very difficult to find a home of the same standard that is so welcoming in the Birmingham area.
Caring for Irene over the years has been a privilege, and we truly appreciate your understanding and partnership along the way. Elaine, and the wider team will be very touched to...

My father has been in the Leys care since the sad passing of my mother in September 2024. The staff are caring, understanding and tuned in to the needs of my father I have always found them willing to discuss issues and find solutions to any issues my father has encountered. What I like about the home is its friendliness of staff and residents as well as its feeling of homeliness. They have the welfare and wellbeing of the resident at its heart through its activities and its caring nature. I have not had any complaints from my father and he loves his cup of tea there which for a tea loving man is a bonus. I also like the fact if you wanted to go for a walk the grounds are more than sufficient for a walk in the summer all round the home is what my father would have expected from his own home but we his family have a knowledge he is safe and well looked after.

I write this review as someone whose mother has been in The Leys for over 4 years. In all that time all I have ever witnessed is just pure love and support for all the residents and that is led by the Manager Elaine. The unwavering patience and kindness she has shown to my mother Hannah humbles me to the core. She is a shining example of being totally selfless and putting other people first. Her team follow that example and are always ready to help Mom in any way they can. Mom has dementia and can be challenging at times but all they show her is kindness and are expert in dealing with her. On her good days she joins in the activities and on her bad days they let her rest and make sure she has everything she needs. She loves the food there and it always looks delicious and the residents are all chatting happily whilst having lunch or dinner. One thing that stands out for me to is all the entertainment and activities which are laid on also. You won't find a better home in the area
We are incredibly proud of the care, compassion, and dedication shown to your mother Hannah, and it is wonderful to...

Mom has been here for a number of years and is treated like family. She is so well looked after and the team go out of their way to spend time with her to understand her needs. She can have her 'moments' but they are so understanding and work everyday to make things better for her.. The food always looks lovely when we visit but more than anything, when I look at the other resident's they are always laughing and seem really happy too. They do so much with them that seems to build a great community and this seems to work really well. It is not an exaggeration to say we would be lost without them
