The Chestnuts Retirement Home is a small family-owned business. They believe that all residents should be treated to the same high standard of care that you would want/expect for your own parents. The manager and owner is the third generation in the family business and her children, fourth generation, regularly pop in and say hi to everyone.
The Chestnuts Retirement Home was started 40 years ago and the owner and his wife even stayed at The Chestnuts when they needed care. The current manager is involved in every aspect of the home and knows all families and residents personally. The home is not a big corporate company, it is a small, relaxed, friendly home that truly cares.
The Chestnuts has an amazing staff team with long standing careers that have been with the company up to 25 years. They have a low staff turnover and a happy relaxed, homely atmosphere. All food is locally sourced and delicious with a 5* rating from environmental health.
They are very proud of the fact that they have remained covid free throughout the whole pandemic. They believe this is a reflection on the brilliant staff team they have.
The manager also works closely with the local community. Every few weeks the children from the local primary school and nurseries come and say hi. They offer regular trips to the local hairdressers, and they use the local butchers and grocery shop. Every Monday they offer escorted trips to all local amenities.

Have just spent around 6 weeks in here after being unable to return home after breaking my leg and shattering my knee cap. I cannot stress enough about the excellent care I received. Nothing was too much trouble and all staff were friendly, helpful and kind. I was there over the Xmas period and they made a real effort to make it a special time. The food although good home cooking was except, and well cooked. A huge thank you to all staff.
My dad moved into the Chestnuts at Ruskington on Saturday 13 July, the home and staff are fabulous. My dad is getting all the care he needs, he has really settled, it's like a little family. I love it and do not want my dad to move. Can't thank the management and staff enough.

My grandad started the care home 40 years ago. I have known the home since being 4 years old. I often came in and said Hi to people, just as my children (fourth generation) do now.
I have been actively involved in the care home for 20 years and our ethos is 'everyone should receive the same high standard of care you would want for your own family. My nana and grandad stayed at the Chestnuts when they needed care and 100% of our staff said they would happily move their own parents into the Chestnuts if they required some care or respite.
Moving into a care home is a huge change and people fear the loss of control. We offer everyone complete environmental mastery over their own room. People can choose the decor and we encourage them to make it as personal and homely as possible with their own furniture and pictures.

I have 20 Years of experience in elderly care and have worked my way up the ladder from care assistant to my current position as deputy manager. I love this job and have wanted to do this since I was a little girl, I have worked with dementia, residential and end-of-life care, and all of them are rewarding. I think giving as much love, care and attention to those that need it, especially because we wouldn't be here today if it wasn't for them fighting for our freedom in the wars. I will forever be grateful and will ensure I give 110% to the families during these difficult times.

I have worked here at The Chestnuts for 16 years and have been Deputy Manager since 2014.
I would describe myself as hard-working, driven, enthusiastic, attentive and caring.
I started my career in care as a carer and worked my way up to my current position. I am very passionate about my job and The Chestnuts. I still work shifts on care as I believe this is how you truly get to know the people you are looking after and they are your top priority.
