We chose Alexandra House as they also cared well for my mother in her final years.

Thank you so much to all the team at Alexandra House for caring and looking after my Mum during her recent 2 week short term stay. At 98 my Mum had never been in a Care Hime situation before and was quite anxious before staying at the home. I have wholehearted praise for the care, love and support that she has received. She herself had no complaints whatsoever about her stay. She found the staff very helpful and supportive, nice food with a varied menu and stayed in a lovely newly refurbished room. As her son, l too had the comfort that she was being very well looked after during my holiday break. Highly recommend.
Thank you so much for your kind words Barry. It was a joy to have mum stay with us and please get in touch if we can help in the future.
I am very happy at Alexandra House with the care and support I receive. I have lived here for 4 years now and I am very satisfied.

Lovely, friendly staff who take care of mum and treat her with dignity and respect. My only concern is that mum has had several falls and has been left to go upstairs alone via the stairs when she is vulnerable to falls, and she has had previous falls and has had previous falls and breaks - we know she is a wanderer, and this is our concern.

Thank you so much for your kind words and for recognising the care and dignity our team provides to your mum. Her safety and wellbeing are always our top priority. We ensure she is always accompanied and supported with her movement around the home. We truly value your input and are already in discussion with you about the possibility of moving her to a ground-floor room to make things easier and reduce unnecessary movement. Please be assured that your mum is never left to wander alone and we have implemented addition safety provisions to alert staff of movement; our dedicated team are always present to ensure that all residents are safe and cared for.
My father, felt not only cared for but also loved from the moment he arrived at Alexandra House in Ludlow. As the months passed, the care, compassion and skill of the carers there gave him a quality of life he could never have enjoyed in his own home. He made friends, played games, started walking...
In his last weeks, the skill, care and kindness shown to him - and me, his only daughter - was truly magnificent and brought great solace and comfort to us both. When the time comes, I hope Alexandra House will find a room for me!
Thank you for sharing your feedback R S. As a team, we are delighted that you were happy with the care and support dad received with us.
Alexandra House provided an immaculate room for a terminally ill friend of mine at very short notice at a weekend. He was cared for by the owner and her team with great kindness and skill. They accessed urgent medical advice in the small hours of Sunday night, and sat quietly with my friend as he...
