Danesbrook House

This really is a home from home, so friendly and welcoming, and the staff are second to none. Nothing is too ever much trouble, and my grandma always speaks so highly of the staff and also of the food which is freshly cooked every day.

Excellent care home with wonderful staff.

My mum attended Danesbrook House for 6 weeks respite care. I was quite anxious about her going there as we have looked after her at home for 10 years. She has Alzheimer's which is slowly getting worse with very short term memory loss and declining health. I could not be more happy with the care she has received. All the staff, from managers to cleaners are absolutely wonderful with Mum and indeed all the residents. Their care goes above and beyond, it is personal, respectful and very professional at all times but above all the residents and Mum are very happy. Lots of different activities every day so not all just sat in a chair with the TV on. Food is excellent and tailored to individual preferences. I am fully informed if anything is required or if they have any concerns. I could not be happier with Danesbrook - well done to home manager and her team for making this a home from home, will definitely use their services in the future.

I am happy with the care provided for my mum.

The staff at Danesbrook House are excellent. Very caring, attentive and looking after mum very well. She is very settled which puts my mind at rest. I would highly recommend the care home, they go above and beyond.

My mother was a resident at Danesbrook House for almost two years she passed away 4 weeks ago aged 98. I cannot thank Danescort for all the care that the staff gave her. It is a wonderful care home set in a beautiful garden. I would recommend the home to anyone. I will miss visiting.

My sister has been at Danesbrook House Care Home for two years and she loves it and feels the care couldn't be better. Because my sister has lots of foods she doesn't like, the cook goes through the menu plans for the week and discusses other options for the food she does like. The food my sister describes as excellent. There are lots of activities arranged though my sister doesn't always take part as she likes to return to her room after lunch she's always encouraged to join in.

Mum came to Danesbrook House after moving from four different hospitals from a broken hip. I looked at quite a few care homes but Danesbrook House met her needs. My first impression when I went to visit was it was clean, calm and friendly. Residents look happy and contented. Mum has been there nearly three months and has settled really well, enjoying the social interaction. The staff are kind, caring and friendly which has helped to settle her in. Nothing seems too much trouble and the management team too are approachable, very helpful and friendly. I know Mum has 24-hour care and most important, Mum is happy there.

The activities and food are very good too.

My mother was residing at Danesbrook House from January 2023 until August 2023. She was very happy there, the staff were kind, caring and well-trained and went above and beyond on many occasions to ensure that the residents were comfortable and felt loved. The management team were very approachable and available. I was devastated when my mother had to transfer to another care home (because she needed nursing care). I wish that she could have stayed at Danesbrook House.

I always feel confident that my Dad is safe and looked after. All the staff interact with him as much as possible. They help him whenever he needs help and never make him feel he is a problem. I trust the staff to make decisions in dad's interests.

My mum was admitted to Daresbrook House in June. After visiting several other homes the family decided that Danesbrook House met with my mum's needs. The venue is smaller, it has fewer residents and displays a more intimate setting. A huge plus point would be the garden. It helps my mum enormously and she loves tending to the many plants and flowers and also encourages her active exercise regime. All staff members appear caring, attentive and capable.

The care my aunt receives is second to none. Very friendly and professional staff. In time, would like my mum to live there.

Home from home is apt. Staff friendly and professional. Food is presented well and is tasty. It is a safe environment for residents, the building is in good repair. Garden area is spacious and visitor friendly.

When my brother visited Danesbrook house before Mum became a resident, his words were 'It had a good feel'. Mum has been in Danesbrook House for 6 weeks and we are so pleased we chose this care home. She has settled in much better than we thought she would because of the wonderful, caring management and staff.

We were very unsure about this step but the staff made Mum so welcome and at home that she wanted to move in immediately. This feeling has been maintained, the staff are so lovely that she now has twenty-four-hour company. We are very happy as a family that our mum is happy.

After making the decision to look for a care home for Mum, delighted to find Danesbrook management and staff could not have been any more friendly, warm and helpful, making sure not only that Mum was happy but also checking with us as a family if they could help us also. Mum has found her home from home, and we are really pleased she has settled so well.

Since my mother-in-law moved to Danesbrook House over 2 years ago she has benefited greatly from the excellent care she has received from the friendly and caring staff. Management of Danesbrook is efficient and any issues that arise are dealt with swiftly after having been discussed with family members. Having a relatively small number of residents gives a homely atmosphere. The staff treat my mother-in-law with patience and respect which is especially important as she has dementia. She benefits from the social interaction when in the lounge but can retreat to her room to read her newspaper. She always appears enthusiastic when meal times come round. I would certainly recommend Danesbrook House.

The staff have taken fabulous care of my mum. They were professional and extremely friendly, helping Mum to settle in and feel happy and well cared for.

Danesbrook provides excellent care to our mum. They provide good and clean facilities. They have done well during the pandemic, however, on occasions, small things have slipped e.g. Mum's hearing aids not in. Hopefully, as the Covid situation improves small things will improve.
