Review from Christina B (Granddaughter of Resident) published on 23 September 2020 Submitted via Postal Card•
Overall Experience
My grandad has been here since Christmas, which was an emergency placement. He has loved it here ever since, he is very settled and happy at Alderson House. The manager and the staff are absolutely brilliant and keep me informed and updated with everything I need to know and about anything he needs. Alderson House is a nice care home with nice staff and looks after its residents amazingly. I have no reason to worry anymore as he is so still so well cared for.

Thank you so much for your kind review. It's lovely to hear we are able to give you and your family the reassurance that your grandad is happy and settled in our home.

Overall Experience
Our uncle came into Alderson House in March 2018. He was there until he died in May this year.
It was the best thing that could have happened to him. It took a few weeks to settle in but then he embraced it all. Enjoyed the daily banter with staff, ate well and put on weight.

The home is very clean, the staff friendly and helpful. Alderson House was the best thing that happened to our uncle and we can highly recommend it.
