Review from Katherine M (Wife of Resident) published on 22 August 2023 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

The staff were very helpful and caring. Very clean environment. The physio was excellent and managed to get my husband back on his feet after he had been in hospital. He is suffering from Parkinsons and all staff handled things very well. It was the first time he has been in a care facility and he realised

that he wasn't fit enough to come home but the time he was in Wilfred Geere was a positive experience and we cannot recommend it too highly.

Review from David O (Son of Resident) published on 15 February 2023 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

This is my mum's 3rd stay at Wilfred Geere, and the staff are always highly attentive and caring. The rooms are well set up with a comfy hospital bed and a lovely leather padded armchair. Your own dressing table, wardrobe, and wash sink, plus that all-important digital TV with good volume (or headphone

socket if better) and easy-to-use remote control. The food is great and plentiful, and you can have something to eat in between meals if you are hungry and tea or coffee by the bucket load.
It's very clean and well-maintained. Highly recommended.

Review from Joy S (Daughter of Resident) published on 6 September 2019 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

My Dad went for his first visit for a week's respite, the staff are all lovely and very friendly and welcomed my Dad as soon as he arrived offering a coffee. This can be quite an emotional time for a family leaving a loved one, but they made it a smooth handover. When Dad returned home a week later

he was really well, clean and looked refreshed, with a big smile on his face and settled into being back home very well.
I would like to say a big thank you to all the staff for their care of my Dad and would have no hesitation in sending Dad again when needed.
