Care and support very good and client feels safe and secure. Activities are there and encouraged but not forced. Overall client is happy in his surroundings, in particular the unit he is on and the staff that attend to his needs.
Thank you for your kind feedback. We're delighted to hear your loved one feels safe, supported and happy, and that our team and activities are making a positive difference.
We researched, visited and interviewed several nursing homes. We looked at Indian nursing homes (as my mother is Indian) but our most important criteria was the care she was receiving, over and above any environmental or cultural considerations. We chose Rowanweald because it was brimming with care workers and nurses - they filled the corridors and attended the residents with such regularity, integrity and devotion. Sometimes three nurses attended my mother's needs, especially close to end-of-life. They were extremely kind and sensitive - to her as well as to us. Towards the end of my mother's life we had a vigil of family arriving at her bedside and it makes me teary thinking about how they cared for us, too. They took every opportunity for kindness, and in the words of Mark Twain, "Kindness is the language which the deaf can hear and the blind can see." She was almost deaf and blind - so you can only imagine our gratitude.
Thank you for sharing such moving feedback. It means so much to hear that the compassion, presence and sensitivity of our team supported your mother and your family, especially at such a precious time. Knowing she was cared for with dignity and kindness, and that you felt held and supported, is something we truly value.
We found Rowanweald to be a very nice care home. It was clean and bright. The food was good and the staff were all very kind to my mother-in-law. She was looked after well. Would recommend.
Thank you for your kind feedback. We're delighted you found Rowanweald welcoming and that your mother-in-law was well cared for. Your recommendation means a great deal to us.
Kind and helpful staff, clean rooms, and excellent communication by the senior management. Very accommodating to our family needs, even permitting visits with family pets.Genuine warmth and understanding throughout our experience, and all of our concerns were expertly dealt with. I would highly recommend Rowanweald as a high quality and reasonably priced care home for our loved ones.
Thank you for taking the time to share such kind feedback. We're delighted to hear that our team, clean surroundings and clear communication made a positive difference, and that we could accommodate your family needs including pet visits. Knowing you felt welcomed, understood and well supported means a great deal to us.
Nurses were "angels" kind,caring, compassionate,friendly and happy to share advice, chat and "hold my hand" and guide me thru the unknown of my mother's,deteriorating dementia which then,kead to palliative care.
They were also interested in my own,welfare and allowed my,dog to accompany me. There are no suitable words to describe,their amazing exemplary care. They took care not just of my mother but also emotional well being of our immediately family. They initiated making chapatis to accommodate the Asian food my mother liked. I was very sad when as a family we realised that we had to put her in a nursing,home...having heard unfavourable comments from the press about nursing homes,we were initially worried. When we got to know the management, staff it couldn't have been, more wonderful. I have absolutely have no hesitation in recommending this home.
Thank you for taking the time to share such meaningful feedback. We're so pleased to hear that you and your family felt supported, listened to and cared for during such a difficult time. Knowing our team could provide comfort, compassion and reassurance means a great deal to us.
The staff at Rowanweald have been nothing short of incredible in their care of my father, and late mother. Attentive, warm and diligent they have looked after every need. The facilities are well maintained and a good range of social activity and hospitality has really put us at ease over a difficult decision.
Thank you for your kind feedback. We're pleased to hear that our team provided warm, attentive care and that our facilities and activities helped support you during such an important time.
We find all the staff from reception area to everyone on the ward very friendly and helpful. My sister and I feel they are both in safe hands and well cared for.
Thank you for sharing your experience. We're pleased to hear that both your parents are comfortable and happy, and that their individual needs are well supported. It's reassuring to know you and your sister feel confident they are safe and well cared for at Rowanweald.
My mother was a resident on Arden Suite for six years. She was severely mentally incapacitated with dementia. Following a major stroke in 2019 she could not return to her care home as she needed 24 hour full nursing care. Rowanweald confirmed they could give her the necessary care which gave me the reassurance I needed. The amazing team of staff at this home kept her comfortable throughout her residency. Everyone was so professional and helpful. Her dignity was maintained throughout her time there which was very important to me. I was always kept informed of how she was doing, from Resident of the day calls every month to additional updates when her care became palliative.
Thank you for sharing your experience. We're so glad our team could provide the care and reassurance you needed and maintain your mother's dignity throughout her time with us. Your feedback means a lot to us.
My mother is a resident on the Magnolia Floor and on many visits, I have witnessed the staff provide the very best care that my mother could wish for.
Thank you for your kind words. We're so pleased to hear that your mother is receiving the care she deserves. Your feedback means a great deal to our team and will be shared with pride.
The staff have helped her settle, and ensure she is eating and taking her medication. This is very re-assuring for her family, as we all struggled to help her while she was in her own home.
The staff are all professional and friendly.
Thank you for sharing your experience. It is heartening to hear that the staff have been able to help your mother settle, ensuring she eats well and takes her medication. Your feedback is greatly appreciated.
They will always have a special place in my heart
Rooms nice and tidy, mother was comfortable resting when I arrived.

Ensuring comfort and a welcoming atmosphere for our residents is our top priority, so your feedback will mean so much to the team, thank you.
My Nan has been in 2 Care homes prior to this and my Dad's 1 other home, this is one trumps them all and I would thoroughly recommend it to anyone thinking of or having to bring a loved one into care. I honestly don't have a bad word to say about this place.
Thank you for your heartfelt feedback. It's wonderful to hear that both your dad and nan are so happy and well cared for at Rowanweald. Our team is dedicated to creating a supportive, caring environment, and it's wonderful to hear your family has been reunited here. We're so glad that the...
Rowanweald Care Home has been a blessing for my father and our family. Care provided by staff is exceptional. They are incredibly attentive and supportive, ensuring my father's needs are met with utmost dedication and compassion.

Thank you for your five-star review for Rowanweald, the team will be touched to read your comments.
All the staff are friendly, helpful, cheerful and caring.
My mother is pretty unresponsive, staff keep her clean and comfortable.
Thank you for your 5-star review for Rowanweald; the team will be very happy to read your kind words.
The warm welcome, the clean room, prompt return of spotless laundry, and suitable and tasty food are provided each and every day. On the rare occasion where an issue has arisen, it has been responded to promptly in a positive manner with a satisfactory resolution.
Such care can only result from excellent management of a cohesive team where every individual is working to not only to fulfil their individual role but to support other teams.
We are immensely fortunate to find a place where our mother can be cared for in such a homely, loving way with dignity and feel no amount of money could buy better care.
Well done to the team at Rowanweald.
Thank you for this beautiful review, the team at Rowanweald certainly do work together to enrich their residents' lives and will be very proud to read your comments.
We are very satisfied with the care my wife is receiving. My wife has problems with food but this is not the fault of the home.
My mother was admitted to Rowanweald just before Christmas 2023. Before arrival the team was very helpful in completing the assessment required and showing my brother and I around. On the day of admission, Mother was received efficiently and with great care by everyone in the home. She has been well looked after some her arrival and the nurses and cares have been respectful in minimising her distresses. Thank you to all of them.
We visited my sister on Wednesday and were made to feel very welcome. The help and support during our time at Rowanweald was, once again, excellent, and the care that she is receiving from the team is of the highest quality - my husband and I left totally confident that she is in very safe hands.

I believe strongly in maintaining an open-door policy and pride myself on being a good listener for residents, their families and of course our staff, to ensure Rowanweald continues to be a supportive, vibrant and enriching place for everyone.

Our residents mean a lot to me – they are like family. You always want to do your best for your family and that’s how I feel about our residents.
We are always playing music and it’s amazing when you hear the residents singing along with you. It feels so good that you are reaching them and connecting. It’s a lovely feeling and it makes my job so worthwhile.

Mercy moved to England from the Philippines to join the home in 2021.
“I believe it is my calling to be a nurse. My residents are like a family away from home – and their families have given us their trust to care for them. I’m very proud and happy.
“The residents are like an extended family, and I treat them as I would my own parents and family members. It’s about caring and giving your heart and promoting their quality of life.”
