Thank you for your feedback. We're so glad to hear that your friend has settled well at our care home.
Our relative had been in hospital for ten weeks and was very frail.
After six weeks at the home, she was eating well, had no infections, much calmer and much more lucid than upon arrival.
The staff are very friendly and caring.

I have to say that all of the careers are absolutely amazing and the nurses on the floor. Nothing is too much hassle and they are always willing to help with whatever is needed.
The home is always busy with social events which are to every resident so whether in bed all the time or in the lounges everyone gets to be involved.
I have to say this is the best-run home I have seen which has to be handed to not only the caregivers, nurses, housekeepers, volunteers but also the wonderful managers.
This is not just a care home but a home for my mum and myself.
I would recommend this home to anyone and I am always saying how wonderful it is to my colleagues and friends.
Thank you for your kind review for the people at Waterhall. It's so lovely to hear that your Mum is happy with us. Kind regards.
My mum has been getting care for a few years, all the staff are so lovely, nothing is too much, very friendly, I would recommend the care home to other families, the staff always update the residents families.

Thank you for taking the time to leave such a positive review. It is lovely to hear that you are happy with the care that your mother receives at the care home. I will ensure that this is shared with the team members.
My mother spent the last 10 months of her life at Waterhall Care Home. I cannot express how good the care was at this time. The staff went above and beyond to make sure she was clean, hydrated and happy. I seriously will never be able to thank them enough.

My husband has been with the Waterhall Care Home family for just over one year. He is so much better now than he was when he first went there. He is always clean and happy and well looked after by his dedicated carers. There is so much more I could say about the excellent running of the care home and it never changed whatever day or time I visit. It makes me happy.
Thank you for your lovely review. We always strive to do our best for the people who live in our home. I will pass on your comments to the team.
I am very happy with the way that my father is looked after at Waterhall Care Home. He is settled and happy there. Well done to the caring team who have helped him to adjust and settle into this environment.

A truly wonderful home. Not only did they do an amazing and caring job looking after my father who was a resident, they were equally as amazing with my mother, offering her comfort and support.

The minute you enter Waterhall Care Home, you are met by smiling and polite care staff from admin staff, manager, nurses, care staff, activities coordinator, and domestic staff. The home is well-kept and very clean and you can never perceive any odours. The care given to residents is amazing, they are given person-centred care, given choice of what they want to eat or drink according to their care plan. Care staff do not assume what a patient needs they ask. The home is filled with the laughter of staff and residents.
Thank you for your kind words. I will pass on your comments to our team members.
I think the home is lovely and the staff are very friendly and do the very best job possible but every care home needs extra staff so that residents could be given extra attention that they deserve.

Very pleased that Mum is now safe, secure and stimulated by her surroundings and the staff provide her with good care.

The staff are amazing and pay such attention to detail in every aspect of care given. The friendly atmosphere lends itself well to a home environment. One can say it is a "Home away from Home".
During Covid times the weekly webinars were a godsend and the live chats via video call kept families very much in the loop.
It gives me such peace of mind, living in South Africa to know that Mom is so well taken care of.
Keep up the excellent work Waterhall ... much appreciated!
Thank you for your kind words. I will pass them on to the other members of the team.
The staff are so helpful and very kind to my husband and also to me. Nothing is too much bother. They are all so good and happy which rubs off on others.

Mum has been a resident at Waterhall Care Home for a number of years and the relationship between staff and residents is fantastic. Always make time for a chat, can share a joke and have a sing song. Communication from the team is really on point and webinars are held regularly to explain topics such as dementia. I love the social media updates.
Thank you for taking the time to send a review for Waterhall, we are pleased to learn that your mum is happy in the home and the relationship is so good with the team. Thank you once again.
Her care is excellent and all the staff are first class.

Dear Ian, thank you for your lovely review. We always strive to do our best for the people who live in our home. Thank you.
Amazing staff with such attention to detail. Every single staff member had a unique story and connection with my mother. I stayed there for a whole week at the end of her life. I was treated with respect, care and compassion, and this was a fraction of how they treated my mother. I am in awe of the...
This care home is like no other that I have ever seen and I really wouldn't mind ending my days somewhere like this. Thank you.
Thank you for your kind words. Our team at Water Hall works very hard to ensure that the people who live in our home receive the best possible care.
My husband was at the care home in his final years. He was cared for by a wonderful team who were so kind and caring and who went out of their way to make me feel welcome too.
