During these difficult times with the coronavirus, the staff at Avonleigh Gardens have done even more to make the residents feel valued and to add interest to their day whilst family and friends are unable to visit. The staff without exception are all kind and caring and will always go the extra mile to keep residents safe and clean. The meals are also being maintained to the usual high standards by the chefs.

My Auntie has been a resident at Avonleigh Gardens since August 2016. The staff have always been welcoming, and the care she has received from all the staff from managers, carers, kitchen staff, cleaners, office staff and volunteers has and still is outstanding. They are all one big family, and it is reassuring to know that at this time, especially in lockdown with covid-19; that my Auntie is receiving the very best care and every effort is being made so that we can keep in contact whilst visiting restrictions are in place. Well done to everyone and a big thank you for all you do!
Your Auntie is a remarkable lady; she has come such a long way. We would like to thank you for expressing your gratitude to all our staff.

Such professional kind helpful staff that can’t do enough for my mother in law. Must be so difficult for them to be at work in this very difficult situation, risking their own health and their lives to care for their residents and keep as much normality going as possible whilst the resident's friend and relatives can’t visit. Thank you to all.
Thank you for your kind comments for the staff; they will mean so much to them. They are always looking for ways to enhance our residents wellbeing. They are all working each day under difficult times but always with a smile.
As a family, we thank you for your professionalism, genuine all round care and humour. A great team.

My Dad is highly thought of by the family at Avonleigh - All the staff are wonderful and treat all residents with the utmost respect. I feel very confident when I leave the home knowing he is in safe hands. Thank you to all. You are all amazing - Especially in these difficult times.

Thank you for expressing your kind thoughts regarding the excellent work that all our staff provide at Avonleigh Gardens. It was a pleasure to meet your Dad and enable him to go back home to his lovely family.
Excellent care for Auntie, just as good as it was 7 years ago when Mum was resident there. Wonderful staff, many of whom cared for both Mum and Auntie. Couldn't fault a thing.

My mum has dementia she has been living at Avonleigh Gardens for 18 months. She is always treated with respect, kindness, dignity and good humour. I do believe the staff care, it's not just a job to them. I watch them interact with mum and some of the other residents, they show interest and...
I am greatly comforted that mum is being cared for and is safe.

Thank you so much for the review. I do agree that Avonleigh staff truly do care for the residents in the home. When I visit it's like visiting a real ‘home’ and the staff and residents are like one big family. I often go into the activities which are so much fun and the staff are happy to dance around and make the residents laugh. I have also been lucky enough to sample some of the food on my visits and it really is lovely, proper home cooked food made with love. Once again thank you for spending time to write the review and I will ensure that it is shared with all the staff in the home.

All residents are content and the majority are excited to see Erica. It is a pleasure to attend such an outstanding residential home. Both myself and my dog are made to feel very welcome and appreciated.
I can’t thank you enough for the lovely review you have written about Avonleigh Gardens. So many of the residents in the home used to have animals, most of which were dogs. It's so lovely that we have you and Erica that come into the home and I know it really does make the residents smile. It's...
I can’t thank you enough for the lovely review you have written about Avonleigh Gardens. So many of the residents in the home used to have animals, most of which were dogs. It's so lovely that we have you and Erica that come into the home and I know it really does make the residents smile. It's also nice to hear that you are made to feel welcome when you come into the home. I will of course share this with the staff in the home. Once again thank you for your time which we value so much.
Avonleigh Gardens is a lovely place. My mum has been here for several years. The staff are just amazing, generally, care for all the people living there. It's a lovely atmosphere, it's like a big happy family. I just feel at ease knowing my mum is cared for.

Thank you so much for taking the time to write a review for Avonleigh. It always tugs the heart when you read that family members feel at ease and know their loved ones are being looked after. Going to live in a care home is such a huge decision and finding the right one can be so hard. I'm pleased to hear that your mum has been in the home for several years and is happy.
I would highly recommend Avonleigh Gardens to care for family members. The staff are very friendly, it's like one big family. I am overwhelmed with all the staff who go out of their way to help others, always a happy bunch.

I feel that we chose well in placing mum here as the staff have continued to make her comfortable whilst maintaining her dignity when attending to her increasing needs due to her illness. I would not hesitate in recommending Avonleigh Gardens.

Avonleigh Gardens and all its staff are amazing the care and dignity they show to my mum and the residents go above and beyond everyone is treated like extended family you're greeted by smiling carers and staff who always make you feel welcome. My mum came in having to be hoisted due to limited eyesight and fear and weeks of not walking, all the staff worked hard and got her back on her feet and walking confidently again which took time and patience in a busy environment. My Mum thoroughly enjoys music therapy and the various activities in the week. The cook makes lovely meals that she really enjoys and the little treats between. Her room is beautiful and always spotless and her clothes always washed/ironed and organised nicely. My mum as her own appointed key worker who is lovely and this stops miscommunication. I visit my Mum regularly and see how hard everybody works to keep this a wonderful care home I leave with peace of mind knowing she is getting the best care surrounded by lovely people. Thank you.
The staff do work hard ensuring excellent person-centred care is delivered. I will ensure your lovely comments are passed onto them.
I chose this care home for my mother as my father had been a resident at this care home some years previously. Our experiences had always been positive and it was reassuring to see that a number of staff who had cared for my father were still working at the home and remembered us. My mother is very...
Knowing that Mum is a resident at Avonleigh gives me peace of mind. She is happy and I am happy.

Thank you so much for taking the time to write this review. I know how hard it is when a person needs to come into a care home, so reading that knowing your mum is here gave you peace of mind brought a lump to my throat. We strive to make Avonleigh a care home that really is a ‘home’; where residents can be themselves, have their own space and also have the opportunity to join in activities if they feel like it. I will look forward to sharing this lovely review with all the staff.
Yes, I have ticked all the boxes with a high score and that's good. However, what makes all the difference to me is the staff - how they interact with each other - I'm impressed by their...
Yes, I have ticked all the boxes with a high score and that's good. However, what makes all the difference to me is the staff - how they interact with each other - I'm impressed by their camaraderie, their support of each other and have not picked up on any negativity (except maybe the "paperwork" side of their job!) To me, if the staff work well together and respect each other then that will work well for our family members who are in their care.
The staff are kind and friendly. Nothing is too much trouble for them. Mum has been in Avonleigh Gardens for six years since my father died. We couldn’t have chosen a better place for her.

What a lovely review. I have been speaking to the staff in the home today and it's very apparent how much your mum is loved. I know the staff in the home will be thrilled with the review. When I visit the home the atmosphere is always a happy one and the staff I meet show kindness in all they do. Thank you again for your lovely review.
My aunt lived at Avonleigh Gardens for 5 years. The care staff go above and beyond, nothing is to much trouble. I always felt at ease whenever I visited and left. My aunt thrived after just months of living there. Lovely home with lovely staff members.

My Mum has been a resident of Avonleigh for over 3 years and I have always been very happy with the home. During a recent period of illness Mum was admitted to hospital and on her return to Avonleigh the entire staff team, including chefs and domestics, have delivered a first class service demonstrating excellent care, skills and compassion. The staff team have kept me informed at all times and I would like to offer my thanks and praise for treating Mum, and our family, with love and dignity at this time. Well done to the whole team!
