Absolutely lovely staff at Clanfield. Mum was in a difficult period of her life during her time there, with temporary delirium and physical pain from her hips before she arrived there, but she was looked after brilliantly by the team. Always treated with care and respect by all members of staff, encouraged to do her exercises (which was to Mum's benefit) and to spend time with other residents, which was helpful to her mental health. Would thoroughly recommend Clanfield to anyone looking for great care for their loved ones.
Thank you. It was an absolute pleasure. It was great to be there for you all when it was needed. It's lovely to know our staff made a real difference.
The meals were fantastic, always home-cooked with fresh vegetables, and they catered for all of Mummy's whims. There's always lots of fabulous, fun entertainment going on daily for residents to join in with if their mood is right. They organise fun days and family days, where we were able to have a fun in the stunning grounds (weather permitting) and if not, everyone could join in inside the beautiful 'home from home' interiors. Mummy's final years were all we could ask for.
Thank you for such a heartwarming review. She was indeed a lovely lady who enjoyed fun and laughter and will always be remembered at Clanfield.
Clanfield is out of touch with current standards. Person-centred care isn’t practised; it seems to be run to suit the management rather than the residents. It lacks investment in staff and facilities. Carers try their very best but not enough are employed to offer good quality care. Some speak without respect and many agency staff are used. Food is poor, bedrooms are tatty with furniture falling apart and old smelly carpets. Residents’ quality of life is poor; most spend their days stuck in front of a TV. Nice gardens but not used, Nan only taken outside twice in a whole year. No activities are offered over weekends and more are needed in the week. As a visitor it feels unwelcoming, times are restricted and there’s nowhere to sit and talk with our relative. Dementia residents are left unsupervised to mix with the others which often causes problems, upset and distress for all. Owners/managers are defensive when challenged and suggestions for even basic improvements were repeatedly ignored.
Thank you for the feedback, character limits prevent a fuller response. I would’ve preferred discussing the issues you raised during the 13 months your nan was in our care. As an independent care provider of 40 years, we’re proud of the care we provide as an openly dementia-friendly home. Our CQC...
Our 97-year-old mum spent the last few months of her life in the care of the remarkable staff at Clanfield Residential Care Home. Understandably, Mum wanted to be at home but the staff there made her time the best it could be. They treated her with great kindness and as a family, we felt communication with us was excellent and the family felt supported by the staff too. Thanks to all of you.
Earlier in the year, my Mother passed away at Clanfield and management put everything in place to allow my parents to be together for her end of life. They were simply amazing.
The food served is always very appetising and wonderfully homemade. My Father always clears his plate and will have seconds! There is a plan in place for updating premises and even with the pandemic going on improvements are still happening.
I would have no hesitation at recommending Clanfield without hesitation to anyone looking for a Care Home.
In warmer weather they enjoy sitting in the garden, eating meals there if they wish. Lovely, home-cooked meals and cakes are in always in abundance; birthday cakes are baked to celebrate each resident's special day.
Relatives are warmly invited and encouraged to take part in regular events, for example, the annual bonfire and fireworks party, and a fully inclusive Sports Day.
A very special home full of very special people.
Thank you for your kind words. It is our aim to continuously strive to ensure that the care provided to our residents is of the highest order and meets their needs at all times.
