Overall Experience

My Dad was a part of the Springwood family until his peaceful passing in May. The staff at Springwood are caring, compassionate, professional and supportive of all residents and their families & friends. Activities on offer are frequent and varied if residents wish to join them. The food is excellent.

Having visited most days, I was very happy with the care Dad received throughout his stay and wouldn't hesitate to recommend Springwood. Our family will always be grateful for the care and support we all received from the whole Springwood team when Dad passed away earlier this year.

From the first days of her residency, I have been so impressed by the professionalism and friendliness of the management and staff. She is so well looked after, and we appreciate how the staff have got

to know her and support her despite her awkwardness at times. Springwood is an excellent care home. I am so glad that they were able to find a place for my mother.

The staff at Springwood House are all very kind and caring and the support my husband has received to help him settle in to living in a care home has been fantastic. I couldn't have picked a better place for him, as I couldn't have put him anywhere I wouldn't want to stay myself.

Overall Experience

My mother was looked after in the home for 8 months until she died. The staff were compassionate and cheerful in looking after her, despite her sometimes being stubborn and appearing to be unappreciative in the early months. For the last week of her life they were exceptionally kind, attentive and showed

my sister and myself great care and support too. Thanks to their care, Mum died peacefully and comfortably and because we were kept informed throughout, we were able to have a last visit with Mum before she died, which meant so much to us.
I can't thank the staff enough for looking after us all and being so supportive when we most needed it....and it's so comforting knowing that Mum couldn't have been in a better place during her difficult final months.

Reply from Jaspal Swalli, Director at Springwood House Residential Care HomeThank you for the lovely feedback which has been shared with the management team and our loyal staff. We will hold onto lasting memories of your mother. Our compassionate team provide a warm, welcoming environment where home-from-home care is our aim. All our staff are well trained to deliver the highest standards of care at all times. In our country house hotel style setting, we have all the amenities to make life in twilight years comfortable and enriching. From home-cooked hearty meals to peaceful sitting areas and tranquil gardens, Springwood House has it all.Warm Regards Company Director

Overall Experience

As a family, I feel that we are receiving an exceptional experience at Springwood House. The activities are stimulating and help to keep my parents physically and mentally active as they get older. The warmth and professionalism of all the staff is wonderful. They treat each resident with great respect,

dignity and care. The owners of Springwood House continually go above and beyond to meet the needs of the families they take care of. I cannot recommend Springwood House more highly to anyone! The attention, care and trust people receive is second to none and I trust them implicitly with taking care of my own parents so well.
It's a home-from-home!

Review from Maria B (Daughter of Resident) published on 25 June 2023 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

During 2021, I was faced with the dilemma of trying to find the right home for my 93-year-old mum, which was daunting, particularly when Covid was still around! I had visited many homes within Derbyshire, but each one I was disillusioned to find the right one for Mum, as I said that my mum wouldn't

be going anywhere where I wouldn't go myself. When I visited Springwood Care Home and was greeted by the owners/directors, who are the third generation family running this beautiful home, I knew I had found the ideal place for Mum!
My mum resided there for two years, and the management and staff were amazing. Nothing too much trouble, always caring, kind and willing to help in every way.
The many varied activities that they organised were amazing; exercise classes, cooking, gardening, singing, and poetry. The food was all home cooked and delicious.
My mum loved it there; she loved all the staff and particularly enjoyed the rapport with the boys serving tea. A first-class home.

Overall Experience

Springwood House is a wonderful home for the residents. My mum moved in a year ago this week and loves it. It’s not a big home, and it has a lovely family feel. The owners and staff care so well for the residents that it feels more like a country retreat! It’s situated in wonderful grounds with fantastic

views, and the garden is perfect for the residents to enjoy - they also do a little gardening and growing of plants with the staff. There are daily activities on offer ranging from chair yoga, baking, crafts, and quizzes, right up to concerts and visits from children from local schools to some rather interesting creatures that sometimes visit to cuddle.
The rooms are lovely with individual characters, and the food is cooked in-house from scratch every day (always wish I could stay as it smells so good).
Great care is taken of all residents health-wise, which has been wonderful in these difficult times. I would strongly recommend Springwood House to anyone looking for a home for their loved ones.

I cannot compliment this team enough. they look after our grandmother so beautifully. I was so stressed every day she was living at home because she wasn’t safe or healthy, but within two weeks of her moving into Springwood, she was happier and healthier than she had been in years. The girls that run

Springwood are wonderful and are starting to feel like a part of our family. I would recommend Springwood to absolutely anyone.

Overall Experience

The main, out of many, best thing about Springwood House is its management and carers. They are all knowledgeable, well-trained, caring, kind, and lovely. I’ve yet to find a below-par, or even just average one.
They look after/ care for the residents so well, so thoughtfully and so kindly.
And this

is in spite of how phenomenally difficult this line of work has been since March 2020.

Overall Experience

As a working GP, this is the best home I have ever visited - we were so lucky to find it for our mother. It is exceptional - like an old country house hotel with wrap-around care. She had her own furniture and possessions, so her room felt like a capsule of her own home. The food is top-notch on home

cooking. The care is respectful and dignified. The owners and staff became ours and our mother's friends. Ultimately, our mother had a very dignified death. She could not have been supported and looked after better.
