Southfield House

Very homely. Very good food. My family and I have been made to feel very welcome.

My family have been to the garden fate at Southfields today and had a very enjoyable day, we like how everyone was enjoying the singing and dancing it is a lovely place and the staff go all out to make everyone feel loved, My sister and brother in law are well looked after and we thank you all

Occasionally I feel concerned that Mum's dignity is not always considered e.g. at 97, I don't like to see the hairstyles they give her as if she were a child! Also, laundry items seem to go astray until I chase them up! These issues are frustrating to a relative. It's a part of the whole picture so it needs mentioning.

Such a big help having care for them both 24/7.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

mam is fed well, cared for with love and respect, I am happy with all of you and what you do.

Visiting Southfield House, I always feel welcomed by the staff, who are devoted to their work, and caring to all the residents. I also notice the happiness in the resident, who has settled in his room, enjoying the food, which is so rewarding and appreciated. The weekly activities are a credit to the organisers and would recommend Southfield House to everyone.

My dad has been here since October, I first came in early November as I didn't know he was here. Staff are always pleasant, welcoming and helpful. My dad's a different person since being in here, he is more settled, happier and starting to mix with others, which I have never seen before. I hope he gets to stay here permanently. Thank you so much for making him happy and settled.

Thank you.

An exceptional care home in all respects.

Whenever I have visited a resident I have noted that all the care team are so caring towards him, even with his challenging behaviour. His room is clean, the overall home is very clean the carers are very polite and acknowledge your visit.

I have always found the home clean and happy. The staff are all excellent and go out of their way to help. Never had a worry about Mum being there at all in fact it has always been a great relief to know how well she is being looked after.

When visiting my friend I find that all the staff are kind and caring and very supportive. If I have any questions the staff are all supportive and approachable and always willing to help with advice. I have no worries about anything as I know she is in the right place for her, as she is cared for and eats well.

I would have no hesitation in recommending Southfield House to anyone.

On visits to my sister I find all staff caring, kind and supportive. On leaving, I am satisfied my sister will be safe and looked after. To me, all staff are approachable and willing to listen to any concerns I may have. After having many worries about my sister living alone, I feel I can now relax.

We chose this care home for my mum because the staff were very friendly and welcoming from the time I knocked on the door and asked if I could have a look around. The home itself has a homely feel and is a lovely environment to live in. The standard of care is excellent and the staff take the time to get to know all of the residents and their likes and dislikes. We are always made to feel welcome when we visit mum and they know all of us by name.

As a family, including my mum, we cannot praise the staff highly enough as they are always happy and nothing is too much trouble. When our daughter got married, a staff member accompanied mum to the wedding, which was very kind of her and meant so much to us as a family.

Mum enjoys lots of different activities which take place in the home, such as visiting musicians and performers together with regular craft and baking sessions. We are confident that mum is getting the best of care whilst living at Southfield House.

All staff and management team are very kind, friendly and very good at caring and making the residents feel special. Excellent atmosphere any time of the day. Would highly recommend it. Very good value for money also. Many thanks to the spacing team.

Staff are very friendly and caring. Feel like one of the family and make us very welcome. Quick to inform and keep us up to day with health and well-being. Know parent well - all staff. Phone calls and emails are answered. Room is comfortable, though not big, not outlook. Don't always hear about activities, but can see things happen and nice to have photos. No worries.

My Mum went to this care home following a recuperative period in another home. The previous experience was not great. So, we approached this looking for somewhere small where Mum would count and somewhere that was a home and not an institution, and for anyone who has been to both, there is a vast difference. This home is managed and staffed, by people who really do care about the residents. People who happily interact with all residents, always with a small, despite the pressures they sometimes endure. They treat them with care, and with great compassion. Since being with this great bunch of people, despite her condition deteriorating, Mum has flourished. She has company as and when it suits her. She is always gloating over the great meal she has just had and feels part of a world that cares, which is a very rare gift at 80. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this care home to anyone looking to place a parent in care, never an easy decision, but in our case, the best one.

In April 2020, my 101-year-old uncle was very fortunate to be given a room at Southfield House after spending nine weeks in hospital. The admission process was completely smooth, in spite of the restrictions in place at that time because of the pandemic. For the next 21-months, he thrived there under the wonderful care and kindness of all the staff and carers. His health improved, he enjoyed the meals, was happy and felt safe and secure. Regular visits by a friend were permitted following all the Covid rules. Any questions I had regarding his care were always dealt with by phone and email in a courteous and helpful manner and, living many miles away, I received regular updates from all the staff. He passed away very peacefully this week at the age of 103, and the care and the kindness were given to him were outstanding to the end. I give my grateful thanks to everyone concerned and a 100% recommendation.
